About Us

We are a locally owned physical therapy clinic in Metairie, Louisiana and have a strong wellness program which includes Pilates classes and private lessons. Our owners opened Tandem PT in June 2018 and have seen consistent growth ever since. Tandem PT believes in providing exceptional care and customer service to the people in our community so they can stay active and healthy throughout their life. We have a unique model that allows us to deeply understand our patients and the problems they need solved. This has allowed us to develop meaningful relationships and grow our practice largely through return patients, their friends and family.
