The Pace West Evaluation

Pace West PT is your natural entry point into the healthcare system for your orthopedic needs; mounting evidence proves:”Experienced physical therapists have higher levels of knowledge in managing musculoskeletal conditions than medical students, physician interns and residents, and all physician specialists, except for orthopaedists.” (Childs et al. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders. 17 June 2005)
