Physical Therapists
Craig Goodwin, PT, President, All Locations
I’ve devoted a good part of my career to working behind the scenes to improve physical therapy care, support legislative change, and support the outstanding work of referring physicians. There’s so much about physical therapy that I enjoy, particularly being able to get patients back to their favorite activities. I also enjoy working with patients, coaches, and faculty at area schools on injury prevention and advanced training techniques for various sports. Everything we do, in fact, is aimed at providing the highest level of patient care.
David Ware, PT, Director, Metairie Location
I am proud of the fact that we can ensure that all patients receive consistency of care by seeing the same physical therapist every visit. This is important to the patient and allows us to make good decisions at each visit. We treat everyone, from the pediatric to the geriatric patient, with compassion, dignity, respect, and positive motivation. I love working with people who are in acute pain from an extremity or spinal problem. It’s great to see them leave feeling and functioning better.
Henry Nuss, PT, Kenner Location
Though I work with patients of all ages, I really enjoy working with people who have been injured at work. My extra training and experience in industrial physical therapy and my interest in helping people regain their livelihoods is a great benefit to my patients. I enjoy working with shoulder, knee, and spinal patients. I always treat my patients as if they were my friends, and they always feel the difference.
Teddy Lopez, PT, Kenner Location
I take great satisfaction is assisting our physicians with the care of their patients. As our clinic specialist in spinal disorders, I welcome the challenge that such diagnoses bring. Treating patients with empathy and understanding, especially in the case of chronic conditions, has made a true difference in physical therapy compliance, improvement in their conditions, and overall enjoyment of the physical therapy experience. I also enjoy being our clinic liaison with the Hispanic community. An easy, open line of communication with all of our patients is critical.
