Dr. Phillip Herel, DPT, owner of Herel Physical Therapy, is an Upstate New York native who earned his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Stony Brook University in 2014. His passion for rehabilitative health and sports led him to specialize in sports medicine, orthopedics, and neurological conditions. While at Stony Brook, he also contributed to research on trans-magnetic cranial stimulation to treat central nervous system impairments. Dr. Herel's experience spans various settings, including geriatrics, pediatrics, sports, orthopedics, neurology, and home health with a holistic mind-body healing approach.

Dr. Herel’s personal health journey ignited his passion for functional medicine. After struggling with complex gastrointestinal issues, conventional medicine failed to provide a clear diagnosis, resulting in chronic debilitating symptoms.

Unwilling to accept the limitations of conventional treatment, Dr. Herel turned to functional medicine in search of answers. With the support of his wife, Monica, a dedicated advocate for holistic health, he pursued holistic treatments and supplementation. The significant improvements he experienced not only transformed his personal health but also reshaped his approach to medicine, reaffirming his commitment to a comprehensive, whole-body approach to wellness.

Building on these experiences, Dr. Herel has expanded his services, partnering with CellCore and Fullscript to offer integrative healing protocols that address the root causes of illness and promote optimal recovery and health.
