StudentFocus-1-800x550.pngPTs Already Have the Tools to Run Businesses

As a physical therapy student, it can be overwhelming to familiarize yourself with all the specialties and practice settings in the profession. To provide a primer on the various career paths for PT and PTA students, APTA Magazine matched up student members with those in leadership roles in APTA's different academies and sections. At the APTA Combined Sections Meeting in February 2024, students got a chance to ask questions and get advice from section leaders.

In the coming issues, we will cover each section. In this month’s edition, Lauryn Goff, SPT, a third-year student at LSU Health Sciences Center, interviewed Mike Horsfield, PT, MBA, president of APTA Private Practice and CEO of Rock Valley Physical Therapy.
