Zoey Therapy Doggo
Zoey Therapy Doggo
Zoey is our therapy wonder-dog here at PTC! She was born on November 27, 2013 in North Carolina, and then ventured to Philadelphia where she joined Ben Buchanan at Arcadia University’s Physical Therapy School. She worked with students there, easing their stress during lab finals and stressful exams.
Now, she lives here in Oklahoma, where she loves the people but not the hot summers. She graduated from A New Leash on Life in Norman, OK with her therapy dog certification in 2017. She’s travelled to many PTC locations over the years before settling down in Northeast Oklahoma City, where she spends her time helping patients through their physical therapy and making our staff smile.
Zoey loves meeting new people and makes sure to greet every patient with a big smile! She’s a winter girl at heart, and loves lounging outside when it’s cool out (but you won’t find her outside on a hot afternoon). Her hobbies include long runs through Mesta Park, chasing squirrels, and playing tug o’ war. Our physical therapists are amazing, but let’s be honest – Zoey is the best reason to schedule your physical therapy at our clinic!
