Your hour. Not shared.
No techs bouncing between rooms, no handoffs mid-visit. Just you and a licensed therapist, the whole time.
About Specialized Physical Therapy
The clinic that treats the cause.
Most clinics manage your symptoms and call it a plan. We built this place to end them: one-on-one with a licensed therapist, every single visit.
Our Story
This isn’t our story. It’s yours.
Dr. Paul G. Vidal, PT, DPT, MHSc, OCS, FAAOMPT, Founder
Dr. Paul G. Vidal founded Specialized Physical Therapy and built it into a two-location practice serving Cherry Hill and Burlington, New Jersey.
Over 28 years in practice, he treated patients through every stage of recovery, from post-surgical rehab to return-to-sport training, earning board certification as an Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist and Fellowship status with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapists.
As of June 2025, Dr. Vidal stepped back from seeing patients directly. He remains closely involved as a mentor to the clinicians who trained under him. The people who do best here are the ones who fix things: their houses, their teams, their families. This is where they finally fix the thing they’ve been putting off: themselves.
What We Believe
Four things we’ll never compromise.
Cause first. Symptoms follow.
You’ve probably chased the pain itself before and never found why it started. We find the why, then the ache stops coming back.
Plans end. That’s the point.
You shouldn’t need a punch card. Every plan comes with a graduation date, so you always know how close you are.
You’re not a protocol.
Your job, your body, your goals: that’s what your plan is built around, never pulled from a generic sheet.
The Difference
Not your typical clinic.
A typical clinic
- You explain your pain to a different aide every visit
- Your hour gets split with two other patients
- The same pain creeps back in a few months
- No graduation date, just book again next week
Specialized Physical Therapy
- One-on-one with a licensed therapist every visit
- 40 focused minutes, one-on-one, every visit
- A cause-first evaluation before we treat anything
- A plan with an endpoint, mapped out on day one
Feel the difference in your first visit.

Inside the Clinic
Where the work happens.
Rooted in Cherry Hill & Burlington
This is our neighborhood too.
We’ve been treating South Jersey for 28+ years, from our Cherry Hill office to our Burlington office: your neighbors, your teammates, your kids’ coaches. The mom who’s been pushing through it so nobody else has to worry? She’s probably on our schedule too. Recovery is a lot more personal when it’s local.
