Susie’s Answer
I was hoping to become a pediatrician. But, working in pediatric physical therapy has allowed me to practice in so many exciting and unique settings with thousands of children and families over the past 28 years. I am glad that I stuck with PT, and happy that I continued to learn and grow in slightly different fields through the years. A DPT is not an end to learning. Just the start.

Before becoming a physical therapist, I wanted to be an aerospace engineer and double majored in physics and engineer. While I enjoyed the subject, I missed the people interaction and was eventually lead to physical therapy.
