Dr. Aaron LeBauer is a physical therapist in Greensboro, NC. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Certified Massage Therapist and Baptiste Inspired Yoga Teacher.
After seeing 43 patients in one day as a PT student, he knew he could not treat patients effectively in the insurance model.
Aaron started LeBauer Physical Therapy in Greensboro, NC 100% cash practice, so he could treat patients as unique individuals and without influence by insurance reimbursement.
He launched the day he graduated from PT school in 2008, even when all of his professors and any other physical therapist he told about his plan, simply looked at him like he was crazy, or with disbelief.
He had owned my own massage therapy practice for 10 years, specializing in chronic pain and injuries prior to entering PT school, so the transition was a bit different than starting from scratch, but I definitely faced some unforeseen challenges in my new role as a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Fun Fact: aaron used to race bicycles competitively and actually earned more money working as a bicycle messenger in San Francisco than many of my friends who were on professional cycling teams.
