Today we want to acknowledge and give a huge shoutout to our very own Dr. Mandy Cronin 👏🏼

As one of the leading Sports Physical Therapists in our region, Dr. Cronin’s passion stems from her experience playing and treating high-level soccer players.

A lifelong student of her craft, Dr. Cronin just completed the prestigious Isokinetic Conference in Madrid 🇪🇸

This is no small feat - the Isokinetic Conference is one of the world’s premier Sports Medicine conferences, bridging the gap between Science and Practice.

Back in the States, Dr. Cronin serves as the Residency Director for our Sports Residency program, one of the only post-doctoral Sports residencies available in private practice. She also treats patients at our Ashburn, VA location 📍

We are thrilled to have welcomed Senator Mark Warner’s team at our Ashburn clinic this week.

We sat down with Ms. Tannia Talento, Senator Warner’s Regional Director for Northern Virginia to discuss the importance of expanding Physical Therapy access to our most vulnerable populations.

We had a great conversation about the Stopping Addiction and Falls in the Elderly Act (SAFE Act), which aims to reduce injuries and opioid addiction in our elderly populations.

Along with the recent Direct Access laws, which allows patients to see a physical therapist without needing a doctor’s order, the SAFE Act is yet another step towards promoting the health and wellbeing of our communities.

We want to send a special shoutout to our friends at APTA Virginia - formerly VPTA and the APTQI for helping us set up this meeting.
