I spent years thinking being an amputee would make me a better therapist. Over time, I started wondering if there may also be an advantage to not fully experiencing the same emotional weight as the patient.

When PT visits are limited, outcomes don’t have to suffer. Scarcity can actually improve patient engagement and clinical decision making.

Clinical confidence is not about having every answer. It is about being willing to ask questions, learn from others, and continue improving over time.
