And that’s a wrap on Orientation! Our Class of 2029 DPT students spent the afternoon playing yard games, learned the Viking game Kubb from Dr. Garber, met incoming Occupational Therapy students, and connected with their second-year buddies.

We’re so excited to welcome the newest members of the GW DPT community and can’t wait to see what they will accomplish!

✨ Faculty Spotlight Friday!✨
Meet Dr. Donal Murray! With his background in physiology, Dr. Murray brings a fresh perspective to the GW DPT program, helping us understand the “why” behind the science that shapes patient care.

Yesterday, our GW DPT students took their voices to Capitol Hill, meeting with congressional staff to advocate for legislation that strengthens access to physical therapy and improves patient care. Advocacy is an important part of being a physical therapist, and we’re proud to help shape the future of our profession. Thank you to the American Physical Therapy Association and Alliance for Physical Therapy Quality and Innovation for joining us and for the support!

Our 2nd year students recently completed their final classes in electives- Advanced Topics in Neurologic Physical Therapy and Rehabbing the Injured Runner. Throughout these courses, students expanded their clinical knowledge and hands-on skills in a variety of specialized areas.

Students in Advanced Topics in Neuro PT refined their assessment and treatment techniques, including vestibular rehabilitation, PNF patterns, and gait analysis. Students in Rehabbing the Injured Runner learned how to evaluate injured runners, analyze running mechanics, and develop individualized rehabilitation plans based on each runner’s unique impairments, goals, and needs. 💙🩺🏃🏻‍♀️

A day of learning, reflection, and growth. Our first-year DPT students joined GW OTD students at the National Museum of African American History and Culture to explore the intersections of history, community, and healthcare. The visit concluded with a meaningful group reflection on how these lessons can inform our future practice as healthcare providers.
