“When choosing a career, I knew that I wanted to be in a medical profession where I could spend time with my patients. Physical therapy was the career that would allow me to help people get back to their lives as well as getting to know them through the process. When treating patients, I was taught to look at the whole picture so when addressing pain and limitations you are better able to develop a comprehensive program to get the patient back to where they want to be. I am grateful that I have found a career that allows me to impact peoples lives with the added bonus of loving what I get to do each day.”
