Elizabeth Sims, PT, DPT

President and Clinical Director

Dr. Elizabeth Sims has a passion for healing. A graduate of the Massachusetts General Hospital Institute of Health Professions in 2010, she quickly found her niche working with a variety of orthopedic and neurological diagnoses. While she enjoys all cases, she finds the most joy achieving superior results with patients who have been dealing with pain or movement disorders for a long time, and perhaps have been unsuccessful with PT at other clinics.

Her undergraduate and graduate studies granted her a broad base of knowledge to round out her degree. She graduated from the University of Rhode Island in 2005 with a health-fitness degree, a minor in psychology, and additional classes in nutrition and teaching.

She had the opportunity to study in England during her time at URI, working as a personal trainer in an ethnically diverse area and traveling in her free time. Through clinical rotations at Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr. Sims gained valuable experience with sports therapy, general rehabilitation, and recovery from stroke and traumatic brain injury, including working with veterans. Additional education and interests in recent years include evaluation and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, vertigo, and running gait mechanics.

Dr. Sims believes her approach to physical therapy is unique in the current health care environment. She attributes her fresh approach to studying under some of the best physical therapists in the country during her graduate studies. She strives to evaluate each injury as it relates to the entire body, rather than as an isolated issue. Her approach allows for more complete recovery, better long-term outcomes, and has been successful with a multitude of impairments.

A former gymnast and soccer player, Dr. Sims now spends her free time chasing her 2 young daughters around Plymouth, participating in local road races, and traveling with her family. 

 

Cara Folino, PTA, CSCS

Physical TherapY ASSISTANT

Cara Folino graduated from Bay State College with a Physical Therapist Assistant degree in 2015, but her experience from “the other side of the table” as a patient has perhaps shaped her as much as her education. Once a college-level and semi-pro soccer player, she gained valuable insight while rehabilitating her own injuries to return to high-level athletics.

Her clinical experience has been rounded out by time spent working with wounded veterans as well as a rotation in a spinal cord injury clinic, both of which have lent her the ability to think outside the box during treatment sessions in order to achieve better results. Since starting at Redpoint, Cara has completed additional certifications for Certified Strength and Conditioning (CSCS), kinesiotaping, Functional Movement Screen, and Running Gait Analyst.

As if her accolades as an athlete and skilled therapist were not enough, Cara also excels at dressing up for Halloween and could be mistaken for a young Jane Fonda or one half of Sigfried and Roy at least once a year. Her creativity and enthusiasm add a new layer of fun to treatment sessions. In her free time, Cara enjoys exploring New England’s finest swimming holes, listening to music, traveling, and playing with her niece and nephew.

 
 

Joe Mammone

Joe's time with Redpoint began on "the other side of the table" as a patient. After having a positive rehab experience with Dr. Sims as his PT, he was eager to help out wherever he could. A graduate of the Graphic and Web Design program from Clark University, he has created the Redpoint logo, social media graphics, special edition logos, and graphics for Redpoint gear.

When Redpoint needed help keeping up with the ever-changing demands of insurance companies, Joe stepped in and learned from the ground up, becoming a master advocate for patients trying to navigate their plans, and allowing the therapists to focus on providing optimal care without worrying about getting visits covered by insurance.

In his free time, Joe enjoys being with his family and his dogs Biscotti and Samson. He loves hiking the mountains and trails of New Hampshire, snowshoeing,
