We know our listeners are lifelong learners and there are different ways to gain clinical excellence. On today's show Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS talked to 4 occupational therapists who've completed an OT fellowship. Briana Elson, MS, OTR/L, BCPR, CBIS, Lindsey Talcott, MOT, OTR/L, Gianna Neutts, MS, OTR/L, and Jocelynn Aguilar, MSOT, OTR/L are here to discuss their experience and provide insights about OT fellowships and specifically the one they completed. OT fellowships are intensive one-year programs that offer more than just additional training; they provide a comprehensive approach to mastering neurological rehabilitation. Fellows experience concentrated mentorship, rotate through diverse neurological settings, and develop a deep understanding of evidence-based practice that goes far beyond traditional clinical education. The key motivation for pursuing a fellowship is clear: to become an exceptional clinician who can truly make a difference in patients' lives. The panel emphasized the importance of having at least a year of clinical experience before applying, demonstrating a strong work ethic, and showing a genuine passion for neurological occupational therapy. Also discussed are what the application process is like, the factors that would make you a competitive candidate and who is not a good fit for this type of program. The programs are challenging, requiring fellows to balance full-time clinical work with additional educational commitments - do you want that? Graduates emerge with increased confidence, specialized skills, and a commitment to lifelong learning that sets them apart in their field. Listen to the conversation and see which path you prefer to lead you to clinical excellence!

Barbara Loe Fisher is the President of the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), a non-profit charity she co-founded with parents of DPT vaccine injured children in 1982. NVIC is a national, grassroots movement and public information campaign to institute vaccine safety reforms and informed consent protections in the public health system. She has researched, analyzed and publicly articulated the major issues involving the science, policy, law, ethics and politics of vaccination to become one of the world's leading non-medical, consumer advocacy experts on the subject. There has literally been a shakeup at Health and Human Services since President Donald Trump took office. In recent weeks HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr has disbanded the old vaccine advisory committee and has appointed new members to provide guidance. Indeed, HHS has taken a new direction, and as such a leaked report indicates there is a plot to get rid of RFK Jr. The staunch recommendations of the COVID shots have been lifted to some extent as cardiac deaths have increased significantly since the pandemic. There are many who are concerned by the childhood vaccination schedule and there are many parents concerned by vaccine mandates as children head back to school as early as next month.

Wait, you mean you have to charge for your amazing services?! How scary!! The pricing conversation is a BIG one! If you've ever felt scared to ask for a dollar amount, to raise your prices or even did what most clinicians do and undercharged, this episode is for you!  Claire McLean, PT, DPT, NCS, Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS, and Emily Duval Ledger, CPT dive deep into setting and raising prices for professional services. The key takeaway is clear: healthcare professionals often dramatically undervalue their expertise. Many therapists and wellness professionals struggle with pricing, frequently charging far less than their services are truly worth. The hosts shared personal experiences of initially undercharging, revealing common mistakes that plague the industry. These include basing prices on limited insurance reimbursements, feeling guilty about charging fair rates, and failing to account for the true costs of delivering high-quality professional services. Claire McLean introduced her "back and forth math" approach to pricing that considers multiple financial factors. This method involves calculating monthly income needs, factoring in taxes and business expenses, determining realistic client capacity, and carefully considering additional costs like staff, benefits, and overhead. The goal is to create a pricing structure that not only sustains the business but allows practitioners to deliver their best work. The conversation highlighted several key pricing principles that can transform a struggling practice into a thriving business. Practitioners must recognize that their energy and expertise are their most valuable assets. Charging appropriately prevents burnout and allows professionals to maintain the passion that drew them to their field. By creating clear value and communicating pricing transparently, businesses can attract clients who are truly committed to their own transformation. Learn practical strategies and insights so you and your clients will both thrive!

Show Notes What happens when acute care PTs create space to support, challenge, and elevate each other? In this episode, hosts Nicole Neveau and Leo Arguelles speak with Tricia Healy, PT, DPT and Kim Levenhagen, PT, DPT about the Aspire & Achieve mentorship program—its origins, its impact, and the intentional matchmaking that has helped over 65 mentor-mentee pairs grow together.

Episode Overview  Dr. Sarah Crawford, DPT, shares how she's revolutionizing healthcare delivery through Anchor Wellness Center - an innovative collaborative model that brings independent practitioners together under one roof. With 98% patient retention and 30% year-over-year growth for member practices, Sarah's approach proves that excellent care and profitable business aren't mutually exclusive.  Key Highlights  The Healthcare Crisis: Only 18% of licensed physical therapists actually work in clinics due to system burnout and barriers to quality care  The Collaborative Advantage: Shared overhead, unified systems, and peer accountability create better outcomes for both providers and patients  Breaking the Poverty Mindset: Healthcare providers must value their expertise and charge accordingly - "if you don't make money, you have an incredibly expensive hobby"  The Entrepreneurship Reality: Building a practice will "crack you wide open" - embrace the vulnerability as essential growth  Systems vs. Solo Practice: Creating scalable businesses that can operate without the founder, not just "expensive lifestyle businesses"  Memorable Quotes  "The biggest barrier to healthcare is continuity of care - patients get bounced from provider to provider with too much time and space between them."  "Political correctness doesn't work in healthcare because it doesn't help people get better. If someone's had ineffective care, let them know it."  "Entrepreneurship cracks you wide open - all your vulnerabilities and insecurities are right at the forefront. You can surround yourself with people who help you grow, or you can resist it."  "You can't help anybody authentically if you haven't done your own work first."  "Love the hell out of people, including yourself. Sit into your own power and recognize that your zone of genius is a gift to the world."  Closing Thoughts  Sarah's model represents the future of healthcare - provider-centered care that actually centers the patient. By removing administrative burdens and creating true collaboration between practitioners, she's proving that the answer to our healthcare crisis isn't more regulations or bigger systems - it's empowering excellent providers to do what they do best. Her message is clear: bet on yourself, value your expertise, and don't apologize for building something profitable that genuinely serves people.  Bio:  Dr. Sarah Crawford, DPT, COMT, earned her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the University of Miami in 2011. With over 14 years of experience in physical therapy and healthcare administration, she has served as office manager, clinical director, and partner for several independent practices before founding Anchor Wellness Center and Wave Physical Therapy and Pilates in 2019.  Dr. Crawford specializes in orthopedic manual therapy, chronic pain management, and Pilates-based rehabilitation.

Dr. Katie Wadland, PT, DPT, GCS's entrepreneurial journey is a testament to adaptability and patient-centered care. What began as a pandemic-era pivot while homeschooling her children transformed into Healthy Aging Physical Therapy, a robust 20-person mobile practice specializing in geriatric and neurological rehabilitation. Her practice emerged from a critical healthcare need, offering innovative at-home therapy services that prioritize patient accessibility. Unlike traditional clinical models, Wadland created a flexible business approach that allows therapists to manage their own schedules while maintaining high-quality care standards. Financial sustainability came through a strategic blend of insurance-based and wellness services, with approximately 70% of revenue from Medicare and 30% from wellness programs. By maintaining transparent financial practices and implementing a profit-sharing model, Wadland cultivated a collaborative team culture that values both professional growth and work-life balance. A key differentiator in her practice is the emphasis on continuous learning and interdisciplinary collaboration. Therapists are encouraged to co-treat, leveraging individual specialties to provide comprehensive patient care. This approach not only enhances clinical outcomes but also creates a supportive professional environment. Wadland's success underscores an important healthcare entrepreneurship principle: innovative practices can thrive by remaining patient-focused, adaptable, and committed to both clinical excellence and team development. Her model offers a compelling blueprint for healthcare professionals seeking to reimagine traditional service delivery. FB: @HealthyAging PT  IG: @HealthyAgingPT  Web: www.HealthyAgingPT.com

Show Notes 2025 What do you really learn in acute care—and what does it feel like to use what you've learned in the classroom? In this episode, we speak with Mika Mendoza, a recent UIC DPT graduate, who reflects on the clinical rotation that changed her perspective on physical therapy. From managing a complex discharge for a newly blind patient to navigating transplant floors and collaborating with interprofessional teams, Mika shares powerful insights on growth, uncertainty, and finding purpose in acute care. This episode also marks the debut of our new co-host, Dr. Nicole Neveau, PT, DPT, who brings her experience as a CI and clinical leader into the conversation. Together, she and Leo explore mentorship, first-hand learning, and why exposure to acute care should be standard in DPT education. Whether you're a student, educator, or practicing clinician—this conversation will resonate. Today's Guests: Mika Mendoza, SPT mmendo47@uic.edu https://www.linkedin.com/in/mika-mendoza-dpt2025/ Guest Quotes: 8:21 “ Interdisciplinary collaboration is, is key to acute care. It's not just walking and it's not just standing.” 19:33 “ …not all things were as straightforward as we had learned it in didactic.” 28:45 “ I feel like having students go into an acute care clinical rotation I think it's just so important because you will never know. If you don't try it, right? …Uou miss a hundred percent of the shots that you don't take. And I think it's the same with acute care, especially because there are so many things that get debunked when you're in an acute care clinical rotation.” Rapid Responses: What kind of shoes do you wear in acute care? “Not White Ones” You know you work in acute care when… “ When you try to swipe your badge to get into your house” Links: https://www.aptaacutecare.org/page/2026Elections Connect with our host and the podcast!

Ladies, if you lift, run, jump—or even just sneeze—this is an episode you need to hear. Pelvic floor dysfunction isn't just a postpartum or aging issue; it affects active women of all ages and often goes unaddressed…until it becomes a problem. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Courtney Johnson, DPT—aka The Female Athlete Doc—a pelvic floor physical therapist who gets the gym. She speaks the language of lifting and doesn't believe in sidelining women from the barbell. Instead, she's all about keeping you active, strong, and leak-free. We dig into the real function of the pelvic floor, why Kegels aren't a one-size-fits-all solution, and how every lift is a chance to train your core and pelvic floor—if you know how to use it. You'll walk away from this conversation feeling empowered, educated, and maybe even rethinking how you brace for your next set of squats. Ready to lift smarter (and leak less)?
