It is official. I have graduated. Doctor of Physical Therapy. The last month has certainly been a blur. After returning to Denver, we had 2 ½ weeks to wrap things up. First off, our research group was meeting daily to get our presentation ready and finalize our paper (we plan on submitting it to a [...]

The “school” part of the semester is officially over. Electives were great. The big “Business Management” presentation went alright; our final paper ended up being over 100 pages long (including appendices, of course). Now, we all start our next clinical on Monday. I’ll be out in Utah at a rural setting for the next 12 [...]

Well, the semester is under way and the thoughts of the comprehensive exam are now far from my mind. However, for those curious, it went well. . . well, well enough to pass the test. As I mentioned before, this is an exam that covers everything we have learned in the program, from anatomy to [...]

Week 4 of Clinicals start this week. 4 more weeks to go. It’s still going great. I’m doing more and more with patients. I’ve talked with a few classmates this last week, one is in acute care, another in a skilled nursing facility, and another on the rehab floor of the hospital, and it is [...]

While giving a tour a few weeks ago to a group of prospective students from Idaho, I was asked a great question: Since Regis University is more expensive when compared to an in-state tuition school I’m looking at, what makes it so great? Or in other words, as a future graduate from Regis, will l [...]

Spring break for me was spent here in Denver with Ashley, Spencer and Daisy. From playing at parks to going on runs, we had a great time. A lot of my class headed home for the break or up into the mountains for some skiing/snowboarding, whereas two particular classmates, Katie and Jeff, had a somewhat [...]

It is a little too quiet in my apartment right now. Since Ashley’s mom had a TKA (total knee arthroplasty) last month, she and Spencer boarded a train last Sunday for Utah to go and help out for a week and a half. (We thought Spencer might like the train, and he sure did. However, [...]

About a year ago, near the end of the 2nd semester, I had a conversation with a then-2nd year student who was just about to complete the semester that I’m in right now. I was telling him how busy school was, and how tough it was, and how it was hard to keep everything organized. [...]

It’s interview time once again for the upcoming DPT Class of 2013. I had almost forgotten about interviews until a group of well-dressed individuals were led into our lab room to observe our class for 15 minutes or so. I really like to observe people, so it was fun watching these candidates, who all looked [...]

Another Christmas has come and gone. Like the majority of my classmates, we went home for the holidays. The only eventful part of our 8 hour drive to Utah consisted of watching Spencer torment Daisy by putting treats by her nose then hurrying and eating them himself instead (Usually, Daisy is in the very back [...]
