Description

Most new grad physical therapists think mentorship means learning manual techniques or treatment progressions — but that’s only a fraction of what real mentorship should be. In this episode, we dive into why true mentorship must extend beyond patient care. From billing and documentation to handling productivity pressures, clinic politics, and even learning how to build a sustainable business — mentorship is what determines whether you survive or thrive in the PT industry.

We’ll talk about what mentorship should look like, why most new grads are getting it wrong, and how seasoned PTs can step up to guide the next generation the right way.
