Praise From Past Participants

“The two-day course Rebekah presented was exceptional. It seamlessly blended didactic sessions with hands-on clinical practice and case scenarios. Dr. Eric Folmar’s contribution to the musculoskeletal content was equally commendable. Our therapists now approach musculoskeletal cases with greater confidence. Rebekah’s emphasis on practicing at the top of our scope aligns perfectly with our commitment to patient care.”
-Dr. Tyler Peck

“It was all great, even for myself with 6+ years of outpatient PT experience and an OCS.”

“Honestly, I loved it all!”

“Excellent presenters, very knowledgeable and relatable and brought up great specific examples to put you in the mindset of ED focus. Models were very helpful understanding the processes/anatomy. Lab time was very helpful as well.”
