Adam Banks

Adam Banks is the CEO of NY SportsMed. He is the driving force behind the development and growth of New York’s premier provider of physical therapy services. Adam bases his business practices on treating all patients with kindness and respect and catering specifically to their needs. This patient-focused philosophy has resulted in the success of NY Sports Medicine and Physical Therapy.

Adam began his career as an airline pilot and was credited with being the youngest pilot for a major airline due to his focus, leadership, and work ethic. During his early career, he was promoted often and achieved success in a fast paced and high pressure environment. His passion eventually shifted and he embarked on a path leading him to success in a new field – that of sports medicine and physical therapy.

Together with long-time friends, Dr. Michael Neely and Luke Bongiorno, Adam conceptualized a holistic approach for orthopedic medicine. Together, they envisioned a place where patients could receive treatment and evaluation for all orthopedic conditions. The motivated and dynamic group created and developed a place of healing and fitness that caters to patients with varying orthopedic needs. Adam tapped into his business acumen and dedication to excellence to create a thriving patient-focused environment.

As NY SportsMed has grown, Adam has maintained his commitment to the practice’s continued success as the Chief of Operations. He works with all staff members to ensure that all day-to-day operations excel beyond expectations and that patient care excellence is maintained. His focus on the business aspects of the practice allow the medical and orthopedic staff to focus on getting patients back to the life that they love.

Social Media as a business application

This idea of using a “Facebook” type of application for a small company is brilliant, it’s a great way to communicate with all employees, or specific employee groups, and even more brilliant as a way for management to get information that they might not necessarily see.

Co-op Billing Budget (Beta)

It would be easy to see that a smaller practice could get the full services of the cooperative for less than $2,000 per month by joining forces in a "Billing Cooperative".

Let’s Stop Wasting Our Profits (Collectively)

By combining resources we will eliminate duplicity of billing departments, and eliminate the third-party-for-profit billing companies. Members will share information on a real-time basis to help all member companies become more profitable.
