New York Times Article about Physical Therapy

There was a nice article in the New York Times about Physical Therapy. Check it out here. It describes the author's experiences with physical therapy and was very complimentary. We, physical therapists, have a great job. We get to spend time with people which is very different than going to see a physician where the norm seems to be 5 minutes or so. We have the time to explain procedures, explain what we are doing, put patients' minds at ease, develop healthy relationships, and help people reach their potential. Needless to say, I am proud of what we do and proud to be associated with the caliber of people that most physical therapists are. While none of us is perfect, I think the majority try each day to be really good at what they should be doing and our patients have the opportunity to reap real rewards because of it.
