Dr.Zak Kimmett
DPT, NCS
Physical Therapist
Growing up as an Air Force brat, I spent many of my early years living all around the county, and even several years in Japan. My family eventually settled down in Mississippi, where my family is originally from. I graduated from South Pontotoc High school and went to college at Mississippi State University. I first earned my Doctor of Physical therapy degree from the University of Mississippi Medical Center in 2017.
Following graduation, I moved to Memphis, TN, where I worked as a PT for 2 years. At that time I realized my passion for treating neurological populations and decided to further my education with a residency at the VA in Tampa, FL. Following my neurological residency, I successfully obtained my Neurological Clinical Specialist certification in 2021.Since then I have been working in outpatient setting with focus on neurological populations. I have been with Neubility since November 2023.

Providing quality outpatient care for the underserved Neurological population.
I treat all manor of neurological conditions including stroke, brain injury,Parkinson’s, MS, etc. I also specialize in Vestibular therapy.
I mostly enjoy stroke and vestibular. But I also enjoy anything new, exciting, or that I haven’t seen before. Variety is the spice of life and Being able to focus on 1 on 1 sessions with neurological patients. There is a huge need for quality care for patients with neurological conditions as outpatients. Too often, patients are forgotten about when they leave the hospital and inpatient rehab, and I love being able to fill that need.
When I’m not working:
In my free time, I enjoy watching football, reading, scuba diving, going to the theatre, and napping on the beach. I am happily married to my wife Lydia, an Optometrist, and we share our home with our two beloved dogs, Chewie and Argos.
