For WPC 2026 attendees interested in Parkinson’s rehab, home-based neuro PT, and private practice models, I’d like to introduce Dr. Katie Wadland, DPT.
Katie is my daughter, and the owner of Healthy Aging Physical Therapy, a large in-home practice serving primarily people with Parkinson’s, complex neurological conditions, and osteoporosis.
What is unique about her practice is that she has worked on a solution to a common problem: people improve while they are getting physical therapy, but lose ground when they are no longer in therapy.
Katie also knows Parkinson’s from more than one side. I was diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson’s during her first year of her doctoral program. So she knows PD as a clinician, and as the daughter/caregiver of someone who has been living with Parkinson’s for nearly a quarter of a century.
Her patients receive care in their homes, covered by insurance just as if they went to a clinic, from a therapist who sees the bigger picture and understands Parkinson’s in a way that cannot be taught in school.
For anyone at WPC who has thought about starting or growing a private practice, Katie is also beginning to offer consulting for professional practices. Ask her about the Goldman Sachs business program she completed last year.
