Marathon PT-Celebrating Our 5th Anniversary and Growing

Staff Spotlight

Farewell to our PT Aide, Liz as she returns to college!

“Where do you go to school and what are you studying?” Liz: I will be a senior at Quinnipiac University in Conneticut. I am studying exercise science and I am also enrolled in the Physical Therapy Program. “ What made you decide to become a physical therapist?” Liz: I knew I always wanted to help people and go into the medical field but I just wasn’t sure what part I wanted to be in. I basically stumbled upon physical therapy by shadowing and volunteering and I fell in love with the profession instantly. Ever since then I have been very passionate and am excited to be a Physical Therapist. “Besides physical therapy, what other interests do you have?” Liz: I love the outdoors and being active. One of my favorite things to do is to go hiking! I also really like to listen to country music.

“Since starting at Marathon Physical Therapy in June, what has been your favorite part of being an aide?” Liz: My favorite part of being an aide is definitely all of the experience that I have been gaining by working with the staff and patients. I’ve been able to observe the different style of work that each therapist does and how they go about treating patients. I’ve also gotten to experience working with patients that have a language barrier. At first it was really hard to communicate with patients but as time went on, I found myself being able to understand their pain and trying my best to help them. “Because you are starting school up again, you will be leaving Marathon Physical Therapy in August. What will you miss the most?” Liz: I am going to miss the staff that works here! I have been able to work with almost all of you and it has been a great experience. I am sad that I will be leaving. I am also going to miss the patients

that I see every shift. I have been working with some patients since their initial visits. I am going to miss seeing their improvement over the weeks and also being part of the process. “Dear Liz, we loved having you as part of Marathon PT Family and wish you well for your senior year of college. We are all going to miss you very much! You are highly dedicated to your patients, your colleagues, and your future physical therapy profession.” -Your Friends at Marathon Physical Therapy
