ABOUT US
Owner, Specialty Physical Therapy
Kim has been a physical therapist for over 30 years, earning both her Master and Doctoral degrees in physical therapy. She has worked at prestigious institutions such as Temple University Hospital and Moss Rehabilitation Hospital in Philadelphia before returning to the area to work as a clinic supervisor for GEM Therapeutics and Riverside Rehabilitation.
Kim is considered a Master Clinician and serves as a clinical instructor for local doctoral students. She is regularly invited to lecture at local universities and organizations. In 2019, Kim decided to leave corporate healthcare to open her own clinic. A year later, as COVID was shutting down the world, Specialty Physical Therapy in the Midway Shopping Center in Wyoming PA opened its doors. With a by-line of “Excellence and Integrity,” Kim and her staff are helping to put humanity and excellence back into healthcare.
