An experienced clinician offering specialized services in the Bahamas
About DeVonnia Bonimy-Lee, PT, DPT, WCS, CLT-LANA, CCST, RYT
I’m a licensed, U.S. Board Certified Physical Therapist & Women’s Health Clinical Specialist, Lymphedema Therapist and Hatha Yoga Teacher.
Growing up in the Bahamas, Dr. Bonimy-Lee, DPT understands resources can be limited, especially in healthcare.
Dr. Bonimy-Lee’s evidence-based approach stems from ABPTS Board Certification in Pelvic Health and nearly two decades of clinical experience in Oncology, Women’s & Men’s Health and post-op care at various facilities over the years including: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, NYU Langone Medical Center, Doctors Hospital Healthcare System and now in private outpatient Physiotherapy practice in the Bahamas. Dr. Bonimy-Lee is in her 2nd term as the President of the Bahamas Association of Physiotherapists.
Dr. Bonimy-Lee is a member of the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the American Board Physical Therapy Specialities’ (ABPTS) Specialization Academy of Content Experts. Since 2019 she has been an integral part of the community of certified specialists invited to write items for the U.S. Board Specialist Certification examination.
This research informed approach enables her to engage and demystify some of the most complex pelvic floor cases. While her love of yoga, muay thai and dance help clients explore movement and mobility, renewed confidence and courage.
