Dr. Amy Pannullo, PT, DPT, PWCS, CLT
Dr. Amy is a Board-Certified Pelvic and Women’s Health Clinical Specialist (PWCS) with more than 20 years of experience treating pelvic health conditions across the lifespan — from children to men and women navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause. Her approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and guided by compassion.
She earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Stony Brook University in 2005 and became board certified in Women’s Health in 2009. Before founding Peak Pelvic Health in 2019, Amy spent 13 years at Duke Health as part of a multidisciplinary pelvic health team, where she gained extensive expertise in pelvic pain, urinary and bowel dysfunction, pregnancy and postpartum recovery, and perimenopause/menopause care.
In addition to her clinical work, Amy is a respected educator, mentor, and advocate within the physical therapy community. Her background includes a Master’s in Psychology and years as a certified athletic trainer — experiences that allow her to see and treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. Most recently, she became a Certified Menopause Coaching Specialist, furthering her mission to support this underserved population.
When she’s not in the clinic, you’ll find Amy running, doing yoga, or spending time with her husband, two kids, and dog.
I definitely feel like I’m very matter-of-fact with patients. I kind of lay it all out there in black and white on day one, just to get the elephant in the room out of the way, or get people’s comfort level where I’d like it to be. These are all normal functions of our body, normal things that we need to do. You have a patient who probably doesn’t talk about these things, and who has no idea what it is you’re going to do with them. Making it as comfortable as possible from day one has been really, really helpful.
