Josh is from Orange County, California. He was actively involved in sports throughout his childhood and high school years, initially steering his interest towards working exclusively with athletes. However, when his father had a stroke during his sophomore year of college, his perspective and career path changed. Josh attended several therapy sessions with his father and witnessed the incredible impact rehabilitation professionals can have on improving an individual’s quality of life. This experience broadened Josh’s interests, leading him to achieve his doctorate in physical therapy, where he could help people realize their rehabilitative potential.
Today, Josh is passionate about guiding his patients through active treatments with the principle that “motion is lotion.” He is an advocate for patient education and helping his patients better understand their pain and how to manage it. Josh empowers his patients with the necessary knowledge and tools to aid their recovery process.
Josh is a proud fan of the Anaheim Ducks. Outside the clinic, you may find him watching hockey, spending time with his wife & kids, and trying new recipes.

Physical Therapist AssistantEducation: Pima Medical Institute
Areas of Interest: General orthopedics, pediatrics, and pelvic floor therapy
Sidney is a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) from Mesa, Arizona. Personal experiences with physical therapy significantly influenced her career choice. Sidney has gone through a physical therapy program three times. Both positive and negative encounters shaped her perspective on patient care. The pivotal moment came from an uncomfortable experience with a practitioner who neglected pain management and proper introduction, making recovery difficult and painful. This experience sparked Sidney’s passion for ensuring that physical therapy sessions are patient-centered, empathetic, and tailored to individual needs, adopting the guiding principle: “Am I treating in a way I would want my parent treated?”
When not at the clinic, you may find Sidney at Disneyland. She is a huge Disney nerd who loves to spend quality time with her puppy and have new food experiences with her fiancé.
