MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Dr. Nathan Kelley PT, DPT

After years working in both sports medicine and skilled nursing facilities, Dr. Kelley saw firsthand how insurance restrictions often limited patients’ recovery potential. He founded First Generation Physical Therapy & Wellness to provide compassionate, one-on-one care that puts the patient—not the system—first.

Ever since, he’s helped clients of all ages regain mobility, strength, and confidence through movement-focused, evidence-based treatment.

Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Duke University

Background in sports performance, pediatrics, workplace injury, and orthopedic rehab

Dedicated community leader, volunteer, and advocate for accessible wellness

First Generation Physical Therapy and Wellness began with a mission to provide care that is compassionate, personalized, and empowering—care that truly puts the individual first. After seeing how insurance companies often limit the quality and duration of treatment, Dr. Kelley chose a different path to give every person the opportunity to receive the care they genuinely deserve.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand the importance of your health journey and we are happy to answer any questions you may have.

Do you accept insurance?

No, we are a cash-based practice. We work for our patients, not insurance companies. This allows us to focus fully on your recovery without limitations on visit length or treatment type.

Do I need a referral?

No referral is needed. In all 50 states, you can see a physical therapist directly. Starting care early leads to faster recovery.

Do I need imaging first?

No. We’ll perform a full assessment and refer you for imaging only if necessary. We can diagnose and treat most conditions without it.

What are my fees?

Fees vary based on treatment type and duration. Treatments may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, wellness coaching, and more.

How can I make an appointment?

Simply fill out the contact form and we will reach out to find a time that works for you.

What is your cancellation policy? 

First Generation is here to help you attain all your movement and health goals. Understandably, circumstances may arise that cause you to cancel your appointment. However, cancellations have an impact on the provider's time and schedule. Cancellations more than 24 hours in advance will not be charged. Cancellations within 24 hours of a scheduled appointment time will incur the full price of the session.
