We are excited to interview a brilliant educator and kindred spirit, Dr. Alison McKenzie, today on the show! Dr. McKenzie is a professor in the Department of Physical Therapy at Chapman University She enjoys combining her extensive clinical, research, and teaching experience in her role as a faculty member and is committed to giving back to the community and profession through service. Over the years, Dr. McKenzie has served as a teacher/mentor to thousands of students, clinicians, and faculty members. She has received several awards over the years, including the California Chapter of the American Physical Therapy Association's Royce D. Noland Award of Merit, the American Physical Therapy Association's Societal Impact Award,and she is Chapman's only 4-time winner of its top faculty award, the Valerie Scudder Award for Outstanding teaching, scholarship, and service.
We first met her nearly a decade ago at a continuing education course that we still remember and use notes from! Dr. McKenzie developed a bootcamp for people post-stroke in 2010 that is interdisciplinary and has evolved and expanded in amazing ways since then. She shares information about the program and we discuss what it might look like to create this type of program for those listening and more.
