COURTNEY TOOKOLO
PTA
BIO:
I grew up in Westfield, IN, but now residing in Broad Ripple, IN. I graduated from the University of Indianapolis and graduated with my Bachelor’s Degree is Psychology and my Associate’s from Physical Therapy Assistant Program in 2018. I have been a licensed therapist ever since and initially started out in the Skilled Nursing setting and was in that setting for three years. I have brief Home Health experience as well covering small parts of Zionsville, Southport/Greenwood, and briefly South Bend areas. However, the outpatient setting has always been my passion in the physical therapy world, so I am very happy to now be part of the Indiana Physical Therapy team!
I became a therapist because I enjoy helping and caring for others in order to restore their functional mobility to lead a healthier and happier life within their community. I had a very positive observation experience while I was in high school that lead me on the path to becoming a licensed PTA. This is a career that allows me to continue to grow not only as a therapist, but as a person as well!
