On this week's episode we sit down with Founder of AOK Physical Therapy, Dr. Alyssa O'Krent. Dr. O’Krent graduated from St. Edward’s University prior to earning her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from University of Texas Medical Branch. Three years into her career she earned a board certification as an Orthopedic Certified Specialist, which puts her in the top 6% of PTs nationwide for evidence-based training. After a 9 year career in corporate orthopedic physical therapy, caring for 2-3 patients at a time, Dr. O’Krent saw an opportunity to transform the patient experience by providing 1:1, specialized care. She started AOK Physical Therapy to create a more enjoyable and effective way to return her patients to doing what they love. Not only did the creation of AOK Physical Therapy create a better experience for patients, but it also drastically improved the quality of Dr. O'Krent's life and gave her the opportunity to spend time doing what she loves as well. Her story is a testament to the fact that when we get out of our own way, the possibilities are endless. I hope you enjoy this episode.
