About Us
Kathy McColumn PT
As a high school basketball player many years ago , Kathy suffered a high ankle sprain during a basketball game and was told that she may not heal in time to play in the state playoffs. This news was especially disheartening because this was her Senior year. After spending 4- 6 weeks in a cast the Orthopedic surgeon referred her to Physical Therapy to rehabilitate her injury so that she could return to the sport she loved by district playoffs. It was during that rehab process she decided that she was going to become a Physical Therapist. She then attended Jackson State University (1983-1987) receiving a B.S. degree in Biology and proceeded to Physical Therapy school at Florida A&M University (1987-1989). Over the years she has worked in various setting from Acute Care Orthopedics, Home Health, Outpatient Physical Therapy and most recently Private practice Outpatient Physical Therapy for the past 15 years.
She has always had a compassion to participate and facilitate the healing of the human body after injury. Kathy feels that “Our goal is to always put the patient first…..which is rare in todays society.” She strives to give the best care possible to her clients providing " REHAB FROM THE HEART'.
