Meet Katie Verschaetse

Philosophy of Care

My interest in physical therapy originally stemmed from my own sports related injuries in pole vaulting and swimming. I have developed a passion to help other individuals return to activities that give them joy by tailoring treatment plans that include patient education, therapeutic exercise and manual therapy techniques. There is nothing I love more than hearing patient success stories and that they have accomplished their goals.

Personal Interests

In my free time, I enjoy biking, hiking, skiing (water, downhill and cross country), camping and being outside with my husband, our son, and our Australian Cattle Dog, Ozark.
