Alexandra DiGrado, PT, DPT, PRPC (she/her)
Hi, I’m Dr. Alex, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and pelvic health specialist with over a decade of experience treating people across the lifespan. I’m a proud Northeastern University graduate and passionate about helping people understand their bodies and feel empowered in their healing.
My specialties include pelvic floor therapy for pregnancy and postpartum, menopause, prostate and other urogynecological cancers, and bowel, bladder, and sexual health concerns. I am certified in Visceral Manipulation through the Barral Institute, a gentle technique that releases organ tension to relieve pelvic and core dysfunction. I also have advanced prolapse training/pessary fitting expertise through Women’s Health Training Associates. I work with adults of all gender expressions and am honored to serve the LGBTQIA+ community. While living in New Orleans, I partnered with the NOLA Transgender Institute, supporting individuals undergoing gender-affirming surgeries. I also co-host (along with Dr. Rebecca Howard Eudy) Under the Hood, a podcast that brings clinical insight and real-world conversation to topics of sex, intimacy, and pelvic health.
Outside the clinic, I love spending time with my husband and two kids, catching up with girlfriends, and enjoying great food (my husband’s a fantastic cook!). Fun facts: I’ve run two marathons, played rugby in college, and once worked on a vineyard in New Zealand.
Please note: Dr. Alex brings over 15 years of advanced training in pessary fitting, trauma-informed care, LGBTQIA+ pelvic health, and chronic pain. Her sessions are billed at a premium rate reflecting the value she provides. These visits are especially well-suited for clients with more complex or long-standing concerns. Please email info@bostonpelvicpt.com or call 813-540-0639 for rates and availability.
Kathryn Radermacher, PT, DPT (she/her)
Hello, I’m Dr. Katie, a pelvic health physical therapist at Boston Pelvic PT. I earned my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Northeastern University and my undergraduate degree in Psychology from The Catholic University of America—both of which deepened my love for movement, the human body, and helping others feel better in theirs.
My passion for pelvic health grew from my own search for relief from pelvic pain and a better quality of life. I’m certified through the Herman & Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation Institute and have additional training in sports medicine, advanced dry needling (including pregnancy & postpartum-specific techniques), and postpartum corrective exercise. I work with adults of all gender expressions, including those navigating birth prep and postpartum recovery, pain with intimacy, leaking during workouts, prostate and sexual health dysfunction, and healing from pelvic surgeries. I am also certified in Visceral Manipulation through the Barral Institute, a gentle technique that releases organ tension to relieve pelvic and core dysfunction.
My passion for sport performance stems from my history as a collegiate Division III lacrosse player and two-time marathon runner, which inspired me to develop and lead the Return to Running program here at Boston Pelvic PT. My goal is to help you move better and feel more in control of your body.
Outside the clinic, I love cooking, traveling, skiing, and hiking around Boston with my husband and daughter.

Outside of the clinic, I live north of Boston with my husband, and our dog, Sawyer. I enjoy trying new recipes and restaurants, traveling, and being outside. Two fun facts about me are that I recently ran the 2025 Boston Marathon and have traveled to Asia!
Kathy Seim (she/her)
Hi, I’m Kathy, the Practice Manager who handles the behind-the-scenes operations so our team can focus on delivering exceptional care.
With a degree from Tufts University and 15 years of experience in operations, project management, and communications—including healthcare and executive support—I launched my own virtual assistance business in 2021 to support mission-driven teams like BPPT. My background in healthcare and fitness gives me a deep appreciation for the meaningful work we do.
I live in Southern NH with my husband, two young sons, and our senior rescue pup. Outside of work, you’ll find me teaching fitness classes, connecting with fellow small business owners, and enjoying family life.
Jackie Hamilton (she/her)
Hi, I’m Jackie! I’m the Office Assistant at Boston Pelvic Physical Therapy, where I focus on keeping things organized and ensuring every patient feels at home.
After spending the past 18 years as a stay-at-home parent raising my three kids, I’m excited to return to the workforce and be part of such a supportive team.
Outside the office, I enjoy traveling with my family, frequently visiting my in-laws who live in Northern Ireland and Scotland. My downtime is usually spent outdoors with my mini labradoodles, Ollie and Louie, and or curled up with a great fantasy novel.
