Had an amazing week teaching in University's Hybrid DPT Anatomy donor lab. The professors and adjuncts were all fantastic and we did a great job!

My station was pelvis and thigh. Let me tell you, the adductor magnus is truly beautiful and pictures don't do it justice! It was a gift seeing the muscles in real life, and remembering how beautiful our bodies are. The future PTs are bright and inquisitive, they also asked me questions about legislative issues and they knew about the open comment of the dept of Ed for the classification of the PT degree as non professional. I was impressed! I said to go APTA.org/advocacy and add your name! 🙌🏼
