PT's are my Heroes!

My new hero is Brodie Pack! He's my Physical Therapist and is treating my neck & shoulder. After suffering from a 'C4-5 disc bulge with left side narrowing' (I have the x-rays and MRI to support that diagnosis) I can appreciate what a Physical Therapist actually does and I want my own! Noelle back to school! We need a full fledged PT in the family!!!

(I found this pic & bio online. His practice in Dana Point is called Pack Physical Therapy. It's in the Kardia Fitness Center on Del Prado. He also added a baby to the family six weeks ago.)

Brodie Pack, MS, MPT

Brodie is a graduate of TWU school of Physical Therapy where he earned his Masters (MS) degree in 2000. In 1997 he received his undergraduate (BS) degree from Brigham Young University.

so I asked my boss about that texas school - he said it's a GREAT school, but that you have to take a class before even applying that's about the state of texas! my answer to that was "ohhhhh, you mean a class on how they want to break off and form their own union? their own COUNTRY!? they're trying to brainwash us!!" He couldn't stop laughing - "So true!"
