Dr. John P. Scafidi has been a practicing physical therapist for over 15 years. John is passionate about helping all of his patients to enjoy more active and productive lifestyles, to function pain-free; recovering as much of their abilities as possible after an injury, illness, or other chronic condition. He can’t imagine a more personally rewarding profession than physical therapy.

Over the years, John has worked very hard as an outpatient physical therapist, with advanced training in orthopedics and manual therapy, to earn a widespread reputation for excellence, integrity, knowledge and his ability to focus on the well being and needs of his patients.

In 2012, Dr. Scafidi was accepted as a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy (AAOMPT), in the field of Physical Therapy. He is 1 of only 13 Physical Therapists in the state of New Jersey and the only Physical Therapist in Monmouth County that is a full fellow of the AAOMPT.

He received his Bachelors of Science in Allied Health and his Masters of Science in Physical Therapy from the University of Connecticut. Dr. Scafidi completed his residency and fellowship training in orthopedic manual physical therapy at the Institute of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy (IOMT) which is affiliated with Massachusetts General Hospital and Boston University. Dr. Scafidi furthered his education by attending the University of Montana where he earned his Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2012.

When he is not treating patients John enjoys spending time at parks, on the beach, or just relaxing around the house with his wife, Lili, and their son, Andrew. John enjoys working out, going for bike rides and relaxing with family and friends. He has traveled to many parts of the country while practicing as a therapist and while volunteering his therapy services.

Opinions That Matter The Most
  • “I would truly recommend to anyone”
    I have been going to Physical Therapy at the East Brunswick location for 6 weeks and I must say they are extremely helpful. Dr. Sarah is amazing as well as the staff. They treat you as if you are family, which makes the entire treatment pleasant. Ms. Josephine always works around your schedule, which is so convenient. I would truly recommend this location to anyone.

  • “Not only do you get Professional care, but the staff make you feel like family”
    I had total knee replacement.The care and attention I receive from physical therapists Anthony and assistant Christian was excellent. They pushed me to get to where I had to be in a very caring way. The staff was excellent starting with Lynn, Tess, Amanda and Phill. The facility is COVID compliant and very clean with all the latest equipment. My two son have been to Profysio in the past with sport injuries and they got them back on the basketball court and football field sooner than expected. As a retired Deputy Chief of the Fire Department I totally recommend Profysio

  • “Wonderful and Patient”
    If I could give 10000 stars, I would! I have been seen Dr. George and Dr. Jenni at ProFysio for the past six weeks or so. Dr. George and Jenni go out of their way to make sure that I am comfortable and have all of my questions answered. They are lovely to speak with at every appointment. I had a wonderful, and warm experience from start to finish. ProFysio is the place for those who wanted to be free of chronic pains and live a healthy life.
