Doctor of Physical Therapy. Reliably rational, perpetually one step from the Aristotelian mean. Tweets are my personal opinion only.

Your images don't tell the entire story. Deciding if surgery is indicated is far more complex than just looking at a picture. I see 10 meniscus tears, 3-4 cuff tears, and many labral tears a day that don't "require" surgery.

For so many musculoskeletal conditions, to me, it makes so much more sense to bypass primary care and surgical specialties and simply go right to a physical therapist. Does not seem to be a very controversial opinion any longer to me.

What about people with unusual challenges in communication? They also benefit from learning practical skills. I had to learn more constructive communication skills to be more effective. I know you can too. #Leadership #hcldr #silvernail_lining

Defensiveness is always weak. Look for the indicator words “just” or “only” as markers. Don’t defend just state your case. #Leadership #hcldr #silvernail_lining
