A lifelong participant in athletics, Drake DeWitt, DPT, knows what it’s like to be on a journey to reduce pain and get back to the activities that you enjoy. His first encounter with physical therapy was during his freshman year of high school, and it set him on a path to learn more about the human body and how to jumpstart recovery.
Drake is focused on making sure treatments are relevant to his patients and geared toward helping them reach their personal goals. Although he sees a variety of injuries, he is especially drawn to rehabilitating those involving the lower extremities due to his background as a former college soccer player.
When time allows, Drake enjoys staying involved with soccer. He also enjoys spending time with his dogs and fiancé, with whom he shares a love of travel.
