Dr. Sean Halpin, PT, DPT

Dr. Sean Halpin grew up in Wading River, NY, and completed his high school education at Shoreham-Wading River High School in 2017. His journey toward becoming a physical therapist led him to The University of Tampa, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree with a concentration in Allied Health in 2021. During his first two years at university, he played collegiate lacrosse for the Spartans at the Division II level. After graduating from The University of Tampa, Dr. Halpin was accepted into the Doctorate of Physical Therapy Program at Stony Brook University, where he graduated with his DPT in May 2025.

Throughout his journey in the DPT program, Sean enjoyed four remarkable clinical experiences that have shaped him into the professional he is today. He had the chance to work at two outpatient orthopedic clinics: Metro Physical & Aquatic Therapy and Advanced S.P.O.R.T.S Physical Therapy. Additionally, he completed an inpatient clinical rotation at Stony Brook Eastern Long Island Hospital/Peconic Landing Sub-Acute Rehabilitation Center, along with an outpatient, post-operative specialized clinic at Northwell Health – Peconic Bay.

Sean’s journey into physical therapy began during his high school years when he volunteered at events for disabled veterans. It was here that he witnessed the profound impact physical therapists have on individuals with various injuries and life circumstances. His current interests in physical therapy encompass treating patients across all age groups and diagnoses, with a particular focus on sports rehabilitation, as well as gait and balance.

Outside of his professional pursuits, Sean enjoys a variety of activities, including golfing, exercising, biking, and cheering on his favorite teams: the Jets, Notre Dame football, and the Mets. He eagerly anticipates joining the compassionate team at Professional Care, where he aims to deliver the highest standard of care, assisting each patient in achieving their life goals and enhancing their overall quality of life.
