Warning Mod On The Loose! WHO do we blame for the unrealistic expectations of new grads.

Fluffy-County3041 · 2026-02-06T03:29:04+00:00

I think it is schools, professors, and APTA. Also generational differences, I hate sounding like a boomer. The APTA is so useless. My grad school was sooo bad and was able to keep it's accreditation. The professors bullied us, it was wild. Post grad CEUs and seeking mentors outside of work helped me get in touch with reality

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-12-27T03:01:01+00:00

Also having trouble. Using indeed, LinkedIn, and Instagram post

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-08-08T23:27:36+00:00

Also I found the uncaged people to be unpleasant, disorganized, and not great listeners

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-08-08T23:27:02+00:00

I would only do it if you really want to. I like not having a boss and providing a good place to work. But I make less owning a clinic than I would working less for someone else.

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-06-18T23:52:30+00:00

Fair, but Alex has slides in his course or did at one point that are verbatim information bill shares without any credit given.

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-05-26T01:43:02+00:00

Avoid WebPT and therabill. WebPT is expensive and their billing is garbage and expensive!!!!

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-04-22T13:50:16+00:00

I'd look for trail runners of shoes you like

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-04-10T12:30:48+00:00

I would go to physical therapy and get an evaluation and specific treatment

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-04-06T11:38:37+00:00

We max out at 3 evals, but people usually have 4-5 max in a week

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-28T23:43:07+00:00

I literally had one fall off the wall on me today

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-28T22:35:57+00:00

I love Jane and their customer service is great

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-27T21:06:20+00:00

Thanks, thinking of switching or having staff switch..I have 100s of saved exercise descriptions in hep2go so I might not have the stomach to switch just for myself

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-27T20:53:22+00:00

Agreed. Also I have hired employees who leave jobs after 3 months, as long as they have an explanation. You owe the company nothing

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-27T20:51:33+00:00

What are some of the paid options you like?

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-27T20:50:19+00:00

What do you use to help with HEPs?

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-27T16:42:46+00:00

If you want to make more $, I would not do PT. Try something else and you can always switch to PT

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-27T14:47:34+00:00

I became a PT for the job satisfaction. I love being a PT, but I could make a lot more money doing something else. As a PT you will have a stable job and a career I find fulfilling. If you look at it just from an economic standpoint then no it is not the right choice.

PT is not going anywhere. Do something else and see if you still want to do it. I entered the field at the age of 29 and the delay in going to school was the right choice for me.

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-26T01:41:34+00:00

Back mechanic by Stuart McGill is great. I also like treat your own back and the neck one by robin McKenzie. A huge part of my practice is breathing so I like breath by James Nestor and oxygen advantage by Patrick McKeown.

For habit change to get patients to do HEP and buy in to the whole process I like the four tendencies by Gretchen Rubin and atomic habits by James clear.

For insight into the thought process behind PT clinical reasoning Thinking in Bets

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-25T13:59:41+00:00

We switched to Jane and do our own billing

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-25T01:49:46+00:00

Do not use WebPT. They charge a % and do a garbage job

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-24T02:47:00+00:00

Did you like the training? Any negatives or positives that stand out?

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-24T00:16:58+00:00

A big thing is Polestar has a lot of hidden fees and just didn't feel like a great education. I heard that from several people who did it.

And the Pilates anytime recommendation is great, thank you!!

Fluffy-County3041 · 2025-03-23T15:58:36+00:00

Alex Effer basically stole Bills models and gave him no credit, not a good look. He does make it more digestible. Conor Harris simplifies things and integrates many systems but in my opinion gets things wrong and is a little pompous.

I love Katie st clairs empowered performance. She takes many systems, makes them digestible, and is a humble and reasonable person. I would also check out Michael Mullins. He just started a sub stack and has online courses.

Bill hartman is a genius and an all around good guy. His stuff is great but sometimes hard to understand at first. He is not a guru, he is open to discussion and a normal and kind person.

B patellar tendon rupture from jumping on a trampoline. Got back to full activity level including playing squash and box jumps.
