In episode 67, Mel & Al chat with Matt Huey, PT, MPT, Dip MDT, CCI, CMTPT, FAAOMPT one of TikTok’s favorite physical therapists and king of painfully accurate clinic humor. We get to know Matt’s journey into physical therapy, the biggest changes he’s seen in the profession, and how the McKenzie Method shaped his approach to care. He breaks down why old school treatments like e-stim and heat aren’t always the answer anymore, and how he explains modern, evidence based care to more skeptical patients. Things get extra fun as Matt shares some of the wildest things patients have ever said to him and opens up about longevity, burnout, and why he’s managed to stick with the career. We wrap it all up chatting about what inspired his social media content and whether he’d choose physical therapy all over again.
