CPT Expanding to Bangor!

County Physical Therapy, which has been serving Aroostook County since 1987, is expanding south, opening a new clinic in Bangor on January 27, 2020.  Commonly known as CPT, this marks the company’s sixth location, with their first expansion since 2002, and first location outside of Aroostook County.

CPT will be located at the former home of Great Skates, alongside Stillwater Academy, at 82 Sylvan Road in Bangor.  Vice President and General Manager Richard Ezzy says the location offers many positive attributes.  “First of all, it is a very well known and visible location.  We have worked closely with the landlord, Tom Ellis of Ellis Commercial Development in Hermon, to design and construct a modern and functional clinic.  Combined with plenty of parking and easy access, we couldn’t have picked a better spot.” cpt_bangor_opening

CPT Founder and President, Mark Rossignol, is excited about the expansion.  “We are looking forward to establishing ourselves in Bangor.  Our growth has always been about meeting demand.  Along with the many people with Aroostook County ties in the Bangor area, we already have strong relationships with healthcare professionals in the market.  We hope that our grass roots brand of physical therapy will be as successful in Bangor as we have been in the County for 33 years.”

Joining Rossignol in the Bangor clinic will be current CPT Houlton Clinic Manager P.J. Madore, who will transition to Clinic Manager at the new Bangor location.  “P.J. has been with CPT for 20 years, and is not only an exceptional physical therapist, he is a top-notch person.”  In addition to Rossignol and Madore, CPT will employ a team of clinic support personnel.

Well known for their results with sports and orthopedic injuries, County Physical Therapy treats a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries, soft-tissue disorders, and other movement issues, working with patients of all ages.  Accepting most major insurances, CPT also offers direct pay alternatives to clients.

Rossignol summarized his objectives for County Physical Therapy: “We realize that patients have a choice as to if, and where, they get physical therapy.  What CPT tries to do is put together a great team of caring and experienced therapists, focus on functional rehab results, and do so efficiently both in terms of time and cost.  That has been my focus for 33 years, and now we get to do it in a new place.  It is exciting.”

While the first appointments will be on January 27, 2020, staffing will be in place soon to begin taking phone calls and scheduling appointments.  To make an appointment or for additional information on County Physical Therapy’s new Bangor location, call 207.401.4324 or email Bangor@CountyPT.com.  You can also visit www.CountyPT.com for information on CPT clinics in Bangor, Presque Isle, Caribou, Houlton, Fort Kent, and Madawaska.
