Levi Peterson - Physical TherapistPT, DPT, ACSM EP*

Throughout his life, Levi has experienced first-hand the impact that physical therapy has on people’s lives. He discovered his passion in the industry as a young athlete when he personally was able to get back to the sports he loved because of physical therapy. “I love how physical therapy utilizes conservative care and exercise to help patients meet their goals. The physical therapists I have worked with before have had an unforgettable impact on my life that I hope to provide to others in the future.”

Levi launched his career while in undergraduate school as a Certified Exercise Physiologist where he had the opportunity to train athletes ranging from elementary school to semi-professional athletes. After completing his Bachelor of Science in Exercise Physiology, he then worked to graduate with a Doctorate of Physical Therapy from University of Mary.

More than anything, I enjoy the opportunity I have as a Physical Therapist to help each patient return to what they love doing. Whether it’s returning to the sport they love or being able to pick up their grandchildren again, helping patients get back to what they’re truly passionate about is what gets me excited to come to the clinic each day.”
