  • Management Team

    Wendy Renzetti

    Chief Operating Officer

    Wendy started at Game Shape around Thanksgiving 11 years ago and gave us something to be really thankful for. She was hired as a “friendly face to meet and greet” and has worked her way up to General Manager and the “Face of Game Shape.” Wendy will often be the first and/or last person to see patients and clients on their journey through the physical therapy and wellness process. Whether it’s to schedule an appointment, take a payment, make a patient feel at ease, provide fresh towels or handle whatever the day throws at her, Wendy is always on top of it! That is how she earned the title of “Game Shape Concierge”. She doesn’t hesitate to lend a hand to the staff, the owner, patients, members, or clients that walk through the door.

    Wendy has experienced her own personal loss of her husband, Ben, and has dealt with bilateral hip and knee replacements. And she is still dancing! She is proud to say that she had all of her physical therapy here at Game Shape. Her son and daughter have both been patients here, and both of her children are fitness members of Game Shape. Wendy has a passion, commitment and a will to succeed in everything she does; as well as, providing encouragement to the clients and patients, and acting like a “den mother” to the staff. She believes that everyone can be helped.
Her motto: “We must have perseverance, and above all, confidence in ourselves, to believe we are somehow led to help those… to get to that which must be attained”.

    Wendy always says: “So wake up, dress up, and show up, …because today is a gift!”
