40 years ago I graduated as a Physiotherapist from the U of M!
For a girl who wanted to be a vet her whole life ( only deciding the summer before starting pre-vet that seeing animals in pain was not her future) I would say that I made the very best decision to become a Physio .
The cliche that if you choose the right profession you never work a day in your life definitely applies to me.
I ❤️ my patients /friends, my colleagues, my work environment, I mean who doesn’t love working in a gym (Assiniboine Athletic Club) where every day is casual day!
I have been so fortunate to be able to combine my passions of running and physio into a career that I find extremely rewarding 😁. I cannot speak for my patients but I think we have alot of fun at the clinic!
As special Thank You to Reja, Jigar, Aimee-Lee, Vrush*ta and Mira for making Physiotherapy Works! a great place to be. I love working with you all. You each bring a special skillset along with a smile every time you are at the clinic.
And of course no one can have a Physio career without loyal patients . You are the ones who make the days interesting with your stories and many goals . Without you I likely would have retired years ago or maybe even gone back to school to become a vet 🤣.
Thank you all for making the last 40 years the best career anyone could hope for!
No I am not retiring yet however I will say that I am not planning to work 40 more years no matter how much I love you all! ❤️🤗
