Just watch some of your videos from 10 months ago and now this. I really like how you explain everything. They are really helping my decision with this career. KEEP IT UP and THANK YOU
Thank you so much for sharing! I am in my last semester of PT school before 2 final clinicals and I feel like this information should be shared much more frequently! I'm in PA as well so this was very helpful
Congratulations Kristen, I'm excited for you and your future as a DPT. I am adding this again from another of your blogs because this one pertains directly to salary so: For all of you DPT majors, being a very close friend to a PTs for years, it is very possible to make as much as other Doctorial professions in the medical field and even more, if and when you decide to own your own practice! I would advise working for some years under and with other DPT professional before ever branching out, but it is an excellent goal to strive for.
Is this a doctorate degree program……? I’m going to be honest I’m shook on the pay. You make more as an insurance adjuster here in west Texas and that’s in a very affordable city in comparison. Awesome you are sharing your experience as they happen. Really helps to form people decisions more accurately!
There is NO LAW that says salary sharing is illegal. You CAN share your salary!!! This is why there is soooo many differences in salaries with folks that have the SAME experience and educational background. Stop being private about salaries and take away the power from greedy corporations!
Quick pointer average salary is based off a 40 hour week. If your worried about money when you first graduate try pushing 50-60 hours a week and you should be in the 6 figures mark (100k+) if your fine with start salary then stick with it. Personally for me I want to push 50-60 hours to catch up on money since I’d have been in school for 7 years
Wow this is just the whole opposite of what you should be doing. All due respect but this is the problem with the system. I found a hack!! Travel PT for like 2-3 years and pay off all your loans and save some money then take a perm job where you want. I net 6 figures traveling in a 40hr work week.
Ahh I am so happy for you!! I just started my first semester of college in August and I am so excited to be like you one day. Thank you for everything you share!! Cant wait to hear about your residency.
You are so sweet, thank you!! I am so excited for you to start your journey! Enjoy every minute of college, you will be amazing. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel :)
If you live with family for a few years to save aggressively you can get it over with quick, if that is not an option then you can live a good life living on your own while paying it off
Its bc I've watched your videos for 3 years that my brother is considering being a physical therapist aide! He thinks the idea of being a physical therapist would be really cool after i talked about what I've learned from watching you but he refuses to take the licensing exam so we found out, in California at least, aides don't have to have a license, just a certification so since his AA degree will be in kinesiology, an aide cert would be a really good next step
I start my first clinical rotation in an acute care setting and I’m nervous yet excited because before PT school I only had experience in outpatient ortho. How was your clinical experience in the acute care setting? Do you have any advice?
Don't be afraid to ask for help, especially if a patient needs more assist! Make sure to communicate with your CI about things you are nervous about so they know how to best support you. I loved acute care and working will all the different disciplines. You got this :)
Please everyone listen!! Travel PT for 2-3 years right out of school!! You can net 90-120k salary! Do not take a perm job! You’ll love it!
Thank you

@@ronmeza6400how far do you travel? Out of state or within state
@@Greasybiscuit-__- out of state. You can travel within state as well but has to be far enough from your taxed home

You are so sweet, thank you!! I am so excited for you to start your journey! Enjoy every minute of college, you will be amazing. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel :)
Awesome!! You have always been super mature and still are!!! How long is the residency program? Good luck with everything you will do great!! :)
thank you so much you are so kind!!! its just 1 year🥰
How would you payoff your $150k-$200k (undergrad and DPT school) student loan with $80k salary?
If you live with family for a few years to save aggressively you can get it over with quick, if that is not an option then you can live a good life living on your own while paying it off

can you give advice on how easy it is to start your own business eventually as a P.T
Future pt here! Do you know what the growth rate of salary will be each year of the career ?
i think thats really clinically dependent on years experience and the tears to move up!
@@kristennicolosi lol tears. Im legit cackling rn.
@@kristennicolosi do you mean tears or years to move up???
@@wisdomandlove1661 lol years!
Thanks for sharing!
