Summary

As a motivated Physical Therapist Aide manager, I know rehabilitation and needs assessments. I have successfully worked with outpatient patients, providing them with outstanding treatment techniques. I am working full-time to support a team of physical therapists serving patients recovering from surgery and sports injuries. I am excited about the opportunity to apply for the Physical Therapist Assistant program in April, as it will allow me to continue positively impacting the lives of those in need.
