[quote=Anonymous]PT masters programs/DPT are extremely competitive. The best route is a 5/6 year PT program. (Financially, PTA is the best route - keep reading regarding the salary cap, which is tough to navigate with huge debt). One thing to consider - the salary is capped pretty much at $100. The insurance and Medicare reimbursements limit what a company can pay a pt and make a profit. Because of that, most PT clinics require PTs to ‘see’ 2-4 patients an hour. Best route is get your experience then do private practice cash only. Northeastern has a good program and their internships really help their students get required clinical hours. Make sure any program he looks at has a solid clinical program or getting his hours will be stressful. [/quote]
