Peter’s motivation to pursue a career in physical therapy stemmed from a personal experience. He was injured during a recreational flag football game and received treatment from a young therapist. This encounter opened his eyes to the transformative power of physical therapy, inspiring him to combine his love for science and working with people in this field.

One of Peter’s favorite types of patients to work with are those aiming to return to sports activities. He enjoys helping athletes regain their strength, mobility, and agility to perform at their best.

Outside of work, Peter has a range of interests that keep him active and connected with nature. He enjoys mountain biking, swimming, fishing, and hiking, finding solace and excitement in these outdoor activities.

Describing himself as someone who values understanding how systems and mechanisms work, Peter applies this approach to his treatment philosophy. Before implementing any changes, whether in treating patients or working on his car or house, he strives to comprehend the underlying principles. He believes in identifying the root cause of a problem to provide effective solutions and emphasizes the importance of patients understanding their own bodies and listening to their signals. Peter empowers his patients by educating them about their bodies and teaching them how to maintain pain-free movement.

Peter sets high expectations for his patients and encourages them to be open to new strategies and approaches to improve their function. He takes a nontraditional approach to physical therapy and expects his patients to be ready to embrace this mindset and actively participate in their own recovery.
