Healthcare is a rapidly changing field. Our current system of sick care is transforming into one where prevention is embraced and natural, conservative treatment is valued over invasive or pharmacologic interventions. Physical Therapists are positioned to rapidly adapt to this change and help society maintain and revitalize their health. At Premier Physical Therapy & Wellness we embrace the larger vision and mission set forth by the American Physical Therapy Associations Vision statement for 2030. “Transforming society by optimizing movement to improve the human experience.”
Premier Physical Therapy & Wellness has a 15-year history of helping patients recover from injury, fight disease and return to a healthy life. As part of our practice mission we are preparing a new generation of doctoral candidates pursing physical therapy as a career. Physical therapists are needed in all area’s of health care and quickly becoming the practitioner of choice for wellness and prevention.
Doctoral candidates apply for intern positions each year and are carefully selected based on academics, experience and interview.
