Send us Fan MailIn part two of this interview with Dr. Nikki Shelton, we discuss how we as Physical Therapists can be advocates within our Healthcare systems, our communities, and with our patients on an individual level. Nikki discusses ways in which she was able to embody this concept in her own story, and how there is room for more of this in so many ways in the future.Join us as we celebrate Black History Month this February. I believe in celebrating each other's differences and building each other up. I believe in supporting each other not just in well wishes, but in action. And I also believe in representation, and that people of all races should be celebrated.The purpose of this podcast is to provide useful, condensed information for exhausted, time-crunched Physical Therapists and Student Physical Therapists who looking to build confidence in their foundational knowledge base and still have time to focus on other important aspects of life. Hit follow to make sure you never miss an episode.
