Lindsay Watson is a physical therapist who spent 20 years working with children. She noticed that pediatric physical therapy needed updating and made more relevant for kids, then she did something about it.
”My years in practice brought me to the conclusion that I needed to solve unaddressed problems, particularly in the healthcare delivery for children. I envisioned what would solve those problems and finally decided to put my fears aside and just go for it, to make a difference and solve those issues myself.”
