'Flexibility With a Sense of Humor'

As a physical therapy student, it can be overwhelming to familiarize yourself with all the specialties and practice settings in the profession. To provide a primer on the various career paths for PT and PTA students, APTA Magazine reached out to those in leadership roles in APTA's different academies and sections. At the APTA Combined Sections Meeting in February 2024, we got a chance to ask questions and get advice from section leaders.

In the coming issues, we will cover each section. In this month's edition, Leah Fogarty, APTA Magazine editor, interviewed Philip Goldsmith, PT, MSPT, EMT, DScPT, president of APTA Home Health and owner and founder of Goldsmith Therapy Solutions in Hanover, Pennsylvania.

Listen to the interview on APTA's podcast.
