Back to Episodes#16 "There's No Way This Is The Same Person" Physical Therapist Prof. Todd Davenport, PhD
Description
In all the years I practiced medicine, I didn't know much about fatigue-related conditions. While I was in the dark, researchers like Todd Davenport, Department Chair of Physical Therapy at the University of the Pacific, shed light on how fatigue affects patients with disease and even those who are healthy. In our interview, Todd shares how he and other physical therapists approach fatigue, how he saw Long Covid coming, and how to find a physical therapist who is right for you.
