After wrapping up a long career, Martha Thomas, PT, looked out into the literature world to find books about her profession. What she found were numerous volumes from a medical perspective. She did not see a straightforward book about what it’s like to be a Physical Therapist. She wanted a volume that explained things like: What is the first day like? What is that first patient experience like? What about the first day of PT school? So, Martha decided to write her own book, using her 40-plus years of PT experience as her guide.
A 1972 graduate from the College of Health Sciences, Martha released her book, All the Broken Bodies: My Life as a Physical Therapist, last spring. Now you can find it in bookstores everywhere. So come with us and learn the real story about what it takes to be a PT … on this episode of The Way Podcast.
