About

I am Keyonda McQueen, PT, DPT, a licensed Physical Therapist with 15 years of diverse clinical experience across skilled nursing and rehabilitation (SAR), assisted living facilities (ALF), home health, acute inpatient rehabilitation, and acute care settings. I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Alabama State University in 2011 and have dedicated my career to helping patients maximize their functional independence and quality of life.

Throughout my career, I have held leadership roles, including Director of Rehabilitation in the assisted living setting, and have developed extensive expertise in neurological rehabilitation. My greatest professional passion is acute inpatient rehabilitation, particularly working with individuals recovering from cerebrovascular accidents (CVA/stroke). I am committed to evidence-based practice and innovative rehabilitation approaches that support optimal patient outcomes.

While working in acute inpatient rehabilitation, I received specialized training in robotic-assisted gait therapy through Ekso Bionics’ exoskeleton technology. Recognized for my clinical expertise and leadership, I was selected to lead Ekso Clinic Days, helping advance the implementation of cutting-edge rehabilitation technology for patients with neurological and mobility impairments.

Currently practicing in the acute care setting, I work collaboratively with the interdisciplinary healthcare team to ensure patients receive the most appropriate next level of care, durable medical equipment (DME), and discharge disposition to support safe and successful transitions from the hospital. I provide comprehensive patient and family education regarding therapy recommendations, discharge planning, recovery expectations, and the vital role of physical therapy in the acute care environment. My patient-centered approach emphasizes advocacy, communication, and coordinated care to optimize outcomes throughout the continuum of rehabilitation.

I am known for compassionate patient care, patient advocacy, leadership, and dedication to rehabilitation excellence. I strive to make a meaningful impact by helping patients navigate complex medical challenges while promoting functional recovery, independence, and an improved quality of life.
