Phillip On

Physical Therapist

”Why is my knee hurting? Do I have arthritis at the age of 19?!” These thoughts were running through my mind before I walked into my first physical therapy visit. The therapist calmed my anxious thoughts and explained that I pushed myself a little too hard during my workouts and created a step-by-step plan of care to return to what I love doing – exercising.

After that visit, I pursued this interest in Physical Therapy. I earned my education at the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences, obtaining my Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree. After experiencing outpatient orthopedics through my internships, I fell in love with helping people find the root cause of their problem and returning them to the activities they love to do to their full potential. I want to convey to my patients that I guarantee that they will receive the best care possible.
