I grew up in Minnesota northwest of the Twin Cities. I got my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from The College of Saint Scholastica in Duluth, MN. After graduating, I worked in Hawaii for a year at an outpatient private practice on the island of Oahu. Following that year, I started working as a contract physical therapist allowing me to work all across the United States and in a variety of settings and practice. I moved to Rome, GA in the fall of 2024.

Patient Testimonials

If I could give more than five stars, I certainly would. I started working with Levi at Shift 3 weeks ago. This is my third go at PT for the same issues stemming from injuries I exacerbated running. At the previous two places, I was doing the same things and not getting better. I was actually getting worse and was very discouraged as I was following my treatment plan and doing everything I was told. From the moment I walked in the door at Shift, it just felt and looked different. The first major difference is Levi listened to me, asked me my goals, did an extremely thorough history and exam and identified that though I had pain in one area, it was caused from and worsened by deficiencies in other areas. He is developing an ongoing rehab plan addressing all of these areas and I have had more improvement in the past three weeks than in the previous six months with other PT. My experience at Shift is they look at and address your needs holistically and focus on not only helping you attain your immediate goals (pain relief being one), but look to promote overall wellness and quality of life. They are thorough in making sure you understand all instructions in your treatment plan and quickly address any questions/ concerns you have. Levi is caring and very knowledgeable and takes time to explain the what, how, and why of each task we are working on. The second major difference is everyone seems to genuinely care and is always offering encouragement, a smile, and caring conversation. I truly don’t feel like a “patient” when I am there.

I have no doubt that I will reach my goals and come back stronger than I was pre injury and will have longevity in participating in the sports that I love and allow me to remain physically active with and for my children!

PT here recommended by my Dr due to pinched nerves caused by bulging discs. In mental and physical anguish I showed up wondering when I’d be scheduling surgery. Cheery and optimistic staff taught me quickly that surgery didn’t necessarily have to be on the menu. Through education of what was going on with my back along with teaching me new stretches and exercises I am now pain free after 5 weeks. Levi is ready to go with his head in the game about your specific issues right when you show up as if your last appointment was just hours before. Absolutely a fan of dry needling as well. Previously unknown to me I find the benefits top notch. 100% appreciative of how my therapy went and excited to know the tools they taught me will keep me in good shape going forward. 10/10 highly recommend and will visit again in the future for any other physical ailments!

Levi is an incredible therapist. I cannot say enough positive things about him. I had been struggling with radicular back pain postpartum, and Levi took a wholistic approach to my treatment in a way no other provider did. He listens (a rarity in healthcare these days!), and he individualizes treatment plans for that person not just for the blanket diagnosis. Shift is providing functional medicine, and Rome is lucky to have this gem in our community!
