The Therapist

Sam McMullen, DPT, PT, OCS, MS, ATC, PES, CMTPT

Sam graduated from Marist College in 2011 with a bachelor's degree in athletic training (ATC). He worked in collegiate athletics from 2011-2016 providing care for athletes of all sports. 

Sam continued his passion for patient care by getting his doctorate in physical therapy (DPT) from University of Rhode Island from 2019-2019. He pursued a career in outpatient orthopedics to help the general population regain function after injury. He has continued to serve the athletic community through onsite athletic training coverage. 

In 2020, his drive to pursue excellence continued by entering the Orthopedic Clinical Specialist residency program which about only 6% of physical therapist attain. 

In pursuit of seeing his patients thrive, Sam went through the rigorous Dry Needling certification (CMTPT) from Myopain Seminars. This allows him to implement dry needling into his treatments that helps the most difficult cases above and beyond the basics. 

Sam founded Outlet Health Solution in 2025 to give patients rehabilitative care that is unmatched anywhere else. He sought to create this experience through 1-on-1 care to make sure nobody feels like "just another patient."

Having been a Division-I college track & field and cross-country athlete at Marist College, Sam has a special interest in treating runners and endurance athletes. While his skill set allows him to help with all orthopedic conditions, he is particularly distinguished in the treatment of the upper, spine, and lower extremities. This has made him particularly effective with the return to fitness aspect of treatment to individualize care right when the patient needs it most. 

Sam is an outdoor enthusiast and runner. Outside of this, he is a devoted husband to his wife, Maura, and father of Madeleine, Benjamin, and Gaelan.
