Daniel Marcotte
Founder of Marcotte Physical Therapy
Established 1/9/2012

Daniel Marcotte began his physical therapy career at Woonsocket Hospital in 1981. In 1992, he co-founded Slatersville Physical Therapy in North Smithfield, where he practiced and led the clinic until 2003. He later served as a hospital rehabilitation director, gaining valuable leadership experience. However, his true passion was always serving the community and working directly with patients.

That passion led Dan to open Marcotte Physical Therapy in January of 2012. As a clinician, Dan has always believed in treating the whole person—focusing on overall health and the entire body, not just an isolated condition. To him, patients were never numbers for insurance or profit; they were people deserving of individualized, compassionate care. He created his clinic with the mission of doing what is right and necessary for each patient, to the best of his ability.

Dan instilled these values in every employee he hired. He championed one-on-one patient care, built a team of kind and caring support staff, and operated the clinic with the belief that every team member plays an essential role. This philosophy is reflected in the way the clinic functions—patients see a team that works seamlessly together, united by mutual respect and shared purpose. Many staff members have remained with the clinic for years, a testament to the culture Dan created.

Dan is an integral part of who we are as clinicians and support staff. As Marcotte Physical and Occupational Therapy continues to grow, we will always honor his legacy by treating patients with heart and skill, staying current in our field, and working together as a team—with one another and with our patients.
