Great post. #PhysicalTherapists well equipped to be business leaders (many are), legislators / public officials, coaches, & innovators. Diagnosing a problem & developing a plan to address by empowering & serving patients and populations in meaningful ways and roles is our gift.
You don’t have to spend your physical therapy career trying to be a better “physical therapist” Use your training to follow your own path: -advocacy -philanthropy -health equity -after school programs -population health -hospice care -giving high fives #DoWhatYouDoBest
