A TEAM MEMBER RETURNS Meet PTPro’s Not-So-New Office Manager, Thais!
Inspired by TheKitchn.com
When Thais Centenaro was first a part of the PTPro team back in 2017, she was the face at the front desk, taking calls, greeting patients, and taking care of some of the clinic’s PR work. That same year, she decided to explore other opportunities, saying goodbye to her PTPro family. But it wasn’t goodbye forever! Earlier this year, Thais returned to PTPro to take on new challenges and to open a new chapter in her life. “When the opportunity arose to return to PTPro, I snatched it up!” she says. Today, Thais is PTPro’s office manager and she’s thrilled to be back. And,
EASY TUNA POKE BOWL
This protein-packed recipe is the perfect dinner for two on a hot summer night when you don’t want to turn on the oven.
Ingredients
• •
1 scallion, finely chopped 1 cup rice, cooked and cooled 1/4 cup avocado, cubed
• • • •
2 tsp soy sauce 1 tsp sesame oil
2 tbsp orange juice
• •
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced 10 oz canned tuna, drained
as office manager, Thais wears many hats — she makes sure patients are getting the insurance benefits they are supposed to have, that we’re up-to-date on the latest insurance rules and regulations, that the office is organized, and that everyone at the clinic has the support they need. And this is just scratching the surface! “Everyone I work with is super professional,” she says. “The goal is to help people heal and everyone at PTPro lives by that goal. Even in my office manager role, I feel like I’m a strong part of that. We do everything we can to help our patients get better.” Thais knows what many of our patients are going through when they come in for physical therapy, having gone through PT herself. “I’ve seen almost every one of our therapists for different things. Working a desk job, they help with ergonomics. They’ve even helped with past digestion issues! But the one thing that really blew my mind was how they’re so hands-on. “They don’t just say ‘Do these exercises at home.’ They work closely with you and guide you step-by-step.” She says these experiences help her excel in her role at PTPro. It’s all about understanding what our patients are going through and connecting with them in a personal way. While we keep her busy in the office, Thais has many interests to keep her busy when she’s not at work. She loves to garden, she’s a cat mom, and during the summer months, she’s always on the water. She takes every opportunity to go wakeboarding or paddleboarding — as long as the weather cooperates, anyway.
