Dr. Molly McDonald- a Physical Therapist
My healthcare background began in 2001 when I became a
Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) while working towards
my B.S. in Nutrition from University of Houston. Massage
Therapy is one of the best careers in the world! Truly,
who does not LOVE a massage. However, over several
years, I found that people would return week after week
or month after month with the same injury or pain.
I started to question why people would only have
temporary relief and what was the actual origin of the
pain. Then, just as I was finishing my degree, I was
shown a Physical Therapy degree program that seemed to
have many of the answers to my questions. I decided to
make a bold move away from my hometown of Houston all
the way to Boston, Massachusetts, where I completed my
Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Northeastern
University in 2011.
Since then, I have worked as a Physical Therapist in
multiple settings, from outpatient sports rehabilitation
to skilled nursing facilities and Inpatient hospital. I
have learned from each of these, but my heart has alway
belonged to working with people to help them return to
the recreational activities they love and to live their
best life.
