Warren McAdams, PT, DPT
Добавлен 10 авг 2015
When Dr. McAdams passed the pediatric specialist exam, he became one of the world's youngest doctors of physical therapy board-certified as a clinical specialist in pediatrics. However, he also works with adults and geriatrics and has received additional accreditation as a Certified Dementia Care Specialist to better serve his older patients. And, due to his gravitation towards fragile and medically complex patients, Warren is also licensed as an emergency medical technician.
