I have been very excited about this interview for quite some time with Dr. Mary Frances Roebuck PT, DPT. Mary Frances is a PT in New York City and works with dancers! She is also my former colleague from South College DPT school. She was gracious enough to provide pictures from classes she teaches as…
When I started this current home health assignment, my friend Kristen told me to ask about if the company provides a home health kit. This is a GREAT question to ask during interviews as well as if they have recommendations for what to pack in the kit. My company told me they were planning on…
This month, I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Kayla Calhoun, PT, DPT, CSCS (dr.kayla.dpt on instagram) Dr. Kayla is a PT (obviously) and a figuring skating coach. I was very excited for this interview because I know nothing about figures skating but it is such a phenomenal sport to watch, and figure skating is…

What do I ask to give readers a deeper look at the benefits of…
For this month’s “What the Health” segment, I had the pleasure of interviewing dual-board certified Physical Therapist, Dr. Alex Hill PT, DPT, CLT. On her instagram (@oncopelvicpt) you will see that Dr. Hill addresses all thing pelvic health, oncology, and lymphedema! A little about Dr. Alex Hill’s educational background: “I graduated from the University of…
One thing I love about the field of physical therapy is that there are so many areas one can focus on and specialize in. I chose travel therapy because I wasn’t sure what setting I wanted to be in, but I didn’t even think of all the areas I could potentially specialize in as well!…
I never thought I would become so passionate about the legislative side of physical therapy, but here we are. I even did an interview with Dr. Mercedes Aguirre, PT, DPT (@theptadvocate) on the issue. This concept seems so logical and simple to execute on a national level in order to make licensing for PTs and…
