Linda’s Answer

1. pediatric
2. Rural communities
3. working with adults with disabilities- many adults with disabilities have typical issues with pain but many orthopedic based therapists are not comfortable with a "pediatric" diagnosis. But diagnosis like; cerebral palsy and spina bifida are not pediatric diagnosis- people grow up.

Dr. Shreepal’s Answer

The beautiful part is that you are a PT. no matter what area of specialization you go into, as long as you are caring and par with your basics and open to changes in the filed , you are always in demand.
