Dr. Ashley Smith PT, DPT

Ashley understands the physical and mental challenges of injury recovery firsthand after suffering two ACL tears as a basketball player at Catholic University. Growing up as the youngest of four collegiate athletes, sports have always been central to her identity and continue to shape her approach to physical therapy.

Ashley enjoys working with athletic individuals of all levels, with a niche in ACL rehabilitation and return-to-sport. Despite continued challenges with her knees, she has a newfound passion for distance running and completed her first marathon in 2025. Ashley’s treatment philosophy centers on building strong relationships with her patients and creating individualized and meaningful programs. Ashley takes pride in helping active people of all ages and disciplines regain confidence and return to the activities they love.
