PT, DPT, COMT

Dr. Sustek understands what it's like to start over after an injury because she's been there herself. After a sports injury and four knee surgeries, physical therapy helped her get back to the life she loved, inspiring her to become a physical therapist. Today, she helps patients regain strength, restore mobility, and build confidence through personalized, evidence-based care. She believes understanding the "why" behind an injury is just as important as the treatment itself and takes time to educate patients every step of the way.

Dr. Sustek has special interests in orthopedic conditions, chronic pain, sports and work-related injuries, posture and body mechanics, and vestibular rehabilitation. Whether someone's goal is returning to work, getting back to a favorite hobby, or simply moving with less pain, she loves helping patients achieve meaningful milestones. Outside the office, she enjoys competing in Spartan, HYROX, and DEKA events, spending time on the water, and hanging out with her dogs, Rocky and Toews.
