My recommendation is to cut your losses and get out of Physical Therapy. The profession sucks and the APTA is a useless organization. The APTA pushed for the doctorate degree when salaries did not warrant the expansion. There are many ways to make a living that are just as rewarding if not more.

That's not it at all. PT here 23 years in and largely 80% out now. The physical therapy profession is completely morally bankrupt. Most PTs see multiple patients at a time. Which means they are charlatans--period. If you have been doing this your entire career then you have no skills. Every therapist who engages in this unethical conduct is enraged with this comment. Every therapist seeing patients one on one knows I'm exactly right. And secondly, most therapists don't have the ethics to refuse to continue to see patients with chronic pain who can't get better due to their poor lifestyle. And that is becoming the majority of pts in today's entitlement driven world. PTs are weak knee'd and afraid to tell doctors they are overridding inappropriate orders that try to enforce continuous PT. I've have fought this nonsense since day one. Most of you didn't--on either point. The fact is your profession is largely a sham now and most of you continue to serve this sham which is making you miserable. And most of you deserve to be miserable for your lack of guts and ethics. Plain and simple.

Trump good example never give up

I've been in my new job 2 days, I feel like running away. I suffer terribly with mental health, I'm totally overwhelmed.

Unless reimbursements rise significantly and then subsequently updates annually in lockstep with inflation (like Social Security payouts increasing every year), I don't think this career has much of a future.

I have no idea how things will improve. Unionize and strike for better reimbursement? No idea really.

Just got a new job in corporate America, very intimidating atmosphere, I’m trying to build relationships and it’s so stressful and I have anxiety hope it works out

You have to look at your debt load too. In that sense, nursing makes more sense economically. Realistically, nursing are making closer to $100k if not more (we're talking new nurses). So it's feasible for a nurse to pay off her debt with her nursing salary. PT on the other hand...? Requiring a Doctorate was a big mistake... big big mistake. I find it hard to believe that they make better physical therapists because of it.

Thanks man it is good skill teaching

"you didn't trick anyone into getting this position." I now have tears streaming down my face. I needed to hear that.

Yeah, the PT profession sucks. The APTA is a self serving useless organization and does very little to protect the profession. Furthermore, PT is the weakest doctorate level degree one can get as the reward at the end is not worth the school investment. The best thing I ever did was get my prerequisites done and apply to medical school. Now I am very happy going to work everyday.

What can you say about Wound Care as now an official speciality in physical therapy?

This is amazing..something I was really looking for

Your contents are amazing, I wanted to help you engage more of your audience.

Thanks alot. ❤ exactly the words i was looking for... Since I'm a physical therapy student and I'm in my final year. And yes i don't regret being a pt student too.

Starting new job in 2 hrs... Ive always ONLY had in home health jobs. Never a job, like, AT a place... Always on my own timeframe essentially.... Im freaking out. I haven't worked in 15 years. Taking care if my mother who needed constant care. Unpaid obviously. Because she had severe mental health issues and couldn't have strangers come in, so she lived with me. She took her life almost a year ago... Now idk how to function in the world. She was my priority always... My husband hired me. And i can't really do anything. The people there are going to lose patience. Im so insanely terrified.

ABSOLUTELY NOT. you won that title in court. You are a master's degree grad at best Be honest

Imagine a nurse with a doctorate or even a PHD degree introduces themselves to a patient as a doctor!!!! It would be intentionally misleading as medical doctors. Please identify yourselves as doctors in non clinical scenarios

I’m about to start working offshore and staying 5 hours away from my family for weeks on end and I can’t say exactly how terrified I am but I’m praying to god I can get used to it fast and enjoy life moving foreard

We need a single payer system!

2:55 hit and just instant tears for me. Exsctly what I needed to hear as I'm in my first week at a new job, fighting feelings of imposter syndrome. Thank you so much.

You should say "bad business developer". A bad physical therapist is bad to their patient.

Can J.D's call themselves a doctor?

Soo excited

Drop bad paying contracts and stand up to the insurance companies who make billions in profits

very helpful and inspiring. Take aways "You Matter"

Really need this😢

Starting a new job is scary but not given proper training is the worst I just got hired as a service coordinator for regional center and they already gave me a large case load and haven’t taught me how to do one thing :/

This information is wrong. Contact A PEO directly for accurate information.

wrong info

I suffer with Imposter Syndrome. It’s very real!

Thanks for this. I start a new job next week, anxious, and needed help with my mindset

I can't do it...

Thanks!

In California , high cost of living , but many PTs I know have 2 jobs. One full time and also per diem. U can make 125k pretty easy if u wanted and find good companies

Physical Therapy is expensive exercise... there's a new phrase for you since you're so offended by the truth.

This is incorrect. Employee leasing is against the law. Please research the Small Business Efficiency Act.

I went to physical therapy, been in and out for various things since I was 12. I've done the exercises, gone to all of my appointments, and it simply didn't help. For people recovering from an injury, it's fantastic, but for people like me with chronic pain and joint issues, it just doesn't seem to do anything. We can strengthen my muscles all day long, they still aren't magically keeping my joints in place. I wish PT wasn't such an insurance go-to so PTs wouldn't be overburdened and stuck with people they cannot help.

This is the best video I've seen. The dry that said my wife was OK when clearly A Physical Therapist said she was getting worse. Makes me want to use this as evidence that the drs were wrong

im trying to build the motivation to have physically relocate my residence for my new job

In Egypt they earn about 1200$ yearly LOL🤡🤡

Thank you.

I’m starting pt school in a couple months and now I’m panicking because I’m terrified of the debt to income ratio and every pt has warned me not too, should I switch careers? Idk

Thanks for the info. Looking forward to the next call. I am working on a script for my front desk to cover the conversation since we just dropped UHC.

In Egypt physiotherapists can use legally Dr before their name without DPT or Phd because the faculty of physical therapy in Egypt spend 6 years it is very long and difficult

There are only two reasons people quit: 1. Not paid enough. 2. They are sick of their boss.

Happy Thanksgiving Will. Was an amazing message. Thank you!!!

Very nice message, and Happy Thanksgiving! Very grateful for this PT industry that I work in! it is difficult, but what isn't? Counting my Blessings!
