Bridgewater, N.J. (October 14, 2026) – JAG Physical Therapy, one of the fastest growing comprehensive physical and occupational therapy practices providing rehabilitative care to patients and sports teams in over 185 locations across the Northeast, celebrated the relocation of its New Drop clinic with a ribbon- cutting ceremony that brought together company leadership, clinic staff and local officials. The event also saw CEO and President John Gallucci Jr. receive a Congressional recognition plaque from the office of Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis.

Located at 125 New Dorp Lane, the new facility provides an enhanced space for JAG Physical Therapy to continue delivering personalized rehabilitation services to patients. The clinic offers physical and occupational therapy, concussion rehabilitation, orthopedic rehabilitation, sports medicine, and additional specialized services designed to help patients restore mobility, manage pain and return to everyday activity.

“This is unbelievable for me, but I was raised on Tysens Lane. I have been on New Dorp Lane since I was six years old,” said Gallucci. “We have been here for years and have great opportunities here, but the community needed more, and this space offers us that. I cannot thank you all enough for coming out today!”

Diane O’Friel, COO of JAG Physical Therapy, also highlighted the personal significance of the opening and the organization’s longstanding ties to Staten Island: “Like John, I also grew up on Staten Island. This is our home, this is our community. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve New Dorp with this improved location.”

Local officials also joined the celebration, recognizing the importance of the upgraded facility to the neighborhood. Vito Fossella, Borough President of Staten Island, praised JAG Physical Therapy’s continued commitment to the community, stating, “This improved location is great for Staten Island and great for New Dorp. John and Diane have never forgotten where they came from, and it shows.”

John Rinaudo, Representative for Congresswoman Malliotakis, presented Gallucci with a Congressional recognition plaque from her office during the ceremony. He said, “We sincerely congratulate you on this relocation and continuing to serve our borough and its residents.”

Mike Fina, Regional Director of JAG Physical Therapy, also expressed his gratitude to the New Dorp community and patients for their continued trust and support: “Thank you for coming out today to celebrate the relocation of our New Dorp office. Thank you to our New Dorp community and our patients for trusting us every single day. Your trust in us is the greatest compliment you can give us; it is greatly appreciated as we do this all for you.”

For the New Dorp clinical team, the ribbon cutting represented the culmination of their work in creating an inviting, updated rehabilitation space for patients and staff. Clinical Director Roman Omelchenko thanked the team for helping make it a welcoming space for the community, sharing, “This office has been a labor of love; this new office is state-of-the-art. Thank you to my staff who work day in and day out to make everyone feel welcome here. Thank you all for being here today to celebrate with us.”
