Meet Alex Hernandez, PTA

Alex Hernandez from Bay Shore, NY, began his journey with Block Sports Chiropractic and Physical Therapy in September 2022 as an aide, supporting the team while pursuing his education at Suffolk Community College. For two years, he balanced his work and studies, driven by a passion for physical therapy and helping others achieve their goals, meet their daily needs, and improve their overall movement. This passion is evident in his previous role as a teacher’s assistant at ACLD, where he dedicated approximately seven years to supporting children with learning disabilities. 

 

After completing his program in May 2025, Alex proudly transitioned into the role of a physical therapy assistant at Block Sports, where he continues to contribute his skills and dedication to the company, now extending his care to adults and mentoring new aides. 

 

Furthermore, Alex is committed to continuous professional development, as he attends Great Lake courses to enhance his skills and provide the best possible care for his patients.  

 

When Alex is out of the office, he enjoys modifying his car, weight training, and spending time with family.
