- Certified Athletic Trainer, 2005
- D.P.T., University of Iowa, 2007
- Certified Orthopedic Manual Therapist, IAOM
What does it mean when you put patients first?
For Brett, it means you don’t treat patients from a “cookbook” of therapeutic recipes or pass patients from therapist to therapist. He focuses on building relationships with each patient, one at a time, whether they’re an NFL athlete, weekend warrior or someone recovering from surgery.
And then he gives each patient personalized, one-on-one treatment that pulls from many different therapeutic approaches and techniques. The goal: treat the patient, not the symptom, so they can live life in full motion.
Outside of work Brett enjoys cheering on his favorite sports teams (Royals, Chiefs, and Iowa State Cyclones), playing/watching golf, and of course spending time with his wife, son, and daughter.
Brett’s specialties include:
- Exercise and sports science
- Athletic training
- Manual therapy
- Functional exercises
- Sports rehabilitation
- Post-surgical rehabilitation
- Orthopedic injuries
