My interest in physical therapy was first sparked during an introductory college course, and has since been nurtured through personal mentorship from Dr. Joseph Weisberg, DPT, founder and former dean of the Physical Therapy program at Touro University. Under his guidance, I gained one-on-one exposure to key principles of physical therapy, including hands-on demonstrations of technique and education in maintaining and restoring muscle health following injury. A letter of recommendation from Dr. Weisberg is available upon request.
