Our Team
Susan Winograd, P.T.
Physical Therapist
Owner / Founder
My name is Susan Winograd, I am the owner and founder of Pelvicore Rehab LLC. I earned a masters degree from the College of Staten Island in 1998. During my almost 30 years of experience I have gained extensive knowledge in the treatment of various populations such as orthopedics, manual therapy, geriatrics, pediatrics and men/women's pelvic dysfunction and treatment of the pregnant and postpartum women.
I have continued my postgraduate education through seminars with The Herman and Wallace institute,MPR scar Release Therapy, John Barnes Myofascial Release,The Institute for Birth Healing, Clear Passage Therapies Inc. and Cranio Sacral Therapy with the Upledger Institute.
I have earned a scar Release therapy certification from Acumed and I am certified in The Wurn Technique and Clear Passage Approach.
I enjoy giving workshops throughout South Florida on pelvic health and wellness related topics.
After years of owning a general orthopedic practice, I repeatedly encountered patients suffering from un-diagnosed or misdiagnosed pelvic floor conditions. My hands on treatment approach of treating the whole person has often led me to discover the primary or contributing cause of pain, dysfunction, or imbalance was pelvic floor related.
My passion and commitment is treating, healing, and educating my patients with pelvic floor dysfunction using a whole body approach to relieve pain, restore optimal function and improve quality of life.
I am committed to providing the highest quality of individualized care that every patient deserves.
Jessica Lockett, MSPT
Physical Therapist
My name is Jessica Lockett, I completed my physical therapy training at Northeastern University in 2005. I have a balanced clinical background beginning in pediatrics before branching into orthopedics, geriatrics, and finally settling into my home of pelvic health.
I have completed pelvic floor and postpartum courses offered by the Herman & Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation Institute and the APTA Academy of Pelvic Health.
In addition, I have completed manual trigger point release workshops offered by Myopain Seminars, visceral mobilization courses offered by the Barral Institute, and Self Care Level one offered by the Arvigo Institute.
I was inspired to pursue pelvic health because it played such an integral part in my own healing journey. I believe that treating the area of the pelvis as it relates to the entire body assists in balancing multisystem relationships, allowing the body to use its wisdom and intuition to heal.
My passion is to help patients become their best advocates in their own care. I believe education in self care, movement strategies, and posture are an integral part of the healing journey as well as preventative measures to ensure future health.
Devora Sklar, DPT
Doctor of Physical Therapy
My name is Devora Sklar. I earned my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Touro College in Manhattan, receiving an award for academic excellence.
I have trained with the Herman and Wallace Pelvic Rehab Institute to treat pelvic floor dysfunction. Upon graduation, I worked with children and adults who had orthopedic and neurological diagnoses, many of which were rooted in pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. I later moved down to Florida where I had the opportunity to pursue my interest in pelvic health.
As a pelvic floor therapist, I have seen significant improvements in patients with a wide range of issues. My continuing education allows me to actively provide current, high-quality, evidence-based treatment.
As a young mom of three, I am passionate about helping women prepare for healthy pregnancies, as well as smooth deliveries and recoveries. I have treated many women with bowel and bladder dysfunction, prolapse, and pelvic pain. My goal is to educate my patients and provide individualized treatment, in order to improve their overall quality of life.
Megan Perez, MS, RD, LDN
Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
My name is Megan Perez. I became a registered and licensed dietitian in 2014 after completing my Master’s degree and internship in Miami, Florida. I have worked in several clinical settings including long term care, dialysis, and hospitals throughout South Florida. These experiences not only allowed me to gain knowledge on a wide variety of medical conditions, but also provided me with insight into our healthcare system and what “standardized” nutrition care and diets look like in a clinical setting. I quickly began to understand that in order to truly help patients improve their health and feel better, I needed to look at the whole person and not a protocol.
I started to counsel one-on-one clients, opened my private practice, and also presented group nutrition classes and cooking demos. I have continued my education by completing courses in integrative and functional nutrition, mindful eating, digestive disorders (such as IBS, SIBO, and IBD), eating disorders and intuitive eating, and also hormone health (specifically fertility, hypothalamic amenorrhea, and PCOS). I have a personal history with digestive distress, PCOS, and infertility, and I have a big, big heart for anyone struggling.
Nutrition plays an important role in a pelvic healing journey.I have a passion for working with those who want to improve their digestive, hormone, and pelvic health using a highly individualized approach. I want to empower you to make long lasting changes that feel realistic and GOOD in your body while achieving long term healing. I want you to love food and feel excited about what it can do for your overall and pelvic health!
You deserve compassionate and quality care. Your story is important.
I feel honored to be able to guide you towards food freedom, symptom relief, and a kind and empowering relationship with food that fuels your body and accelerates healing.

2013 and have experienced radical change ever since. I took a deeper dive into studying and understanding the impacts of a functional and integrative approach on our wellbeing and am excited to share my knowledge with you.
