Hi readers! I first would like to introduce myself. My name is Maryanne Lazore and I am a first year physical therapy student at Utica University. I grew up in a small town in Upstate New York called Altmar, only an hour from campus here in Utica! I earned my bachelor’s degree in health sciences at Utica University (at that time, Utica College) and now I’m sticking around to earn my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. I am currently in the fall semester of my first year of the program and am a graduate assistant in the graduate admissions office where I have the opportunity to help new students get to know UU’s PT program a little better! In this blog, my goal is to help those who are looking at PT programs and would like to know what Utica University’s program is like on a deeper, more detailed level! I am open to any questions anyone may have regarding UU’s program and would love to help solidify a big decision, like deciding on a graduate school, for someone who’s going through that proc...

I have learned so many things and have grown so much as a student, physical therapist and person. I remember my first day of class and all of the emotions that rushed over me for what was to come - all the people I’d meet, the things I’d learn, the places I’d go. I look back on my time here and remember the days going by so so slow, but man have these past two years f l o w n by. I definitely will miss some of the aspects of coming to campus everyday and learning things in a classroom as I have my whole life up until now, but I am VERY excited to head out on clinical for my final year of the program. I had the best time at my clinical last summer, getting a chance to work hands on and apply everything I had learned. It is really a setting I thrive in. I have always been a hands-on...
https://www.vecteezy.com/free-vector/physical-therapy Hi all! I remember thinking about this spring semester of my second year when I was in gross anatomy. Envisioning all of the information that I would know and all of the time spent on becoming a PT. Although in the moment, each day felt like it lasted 100 hours and there was always something new to learn, this semester came up much quicker than I anticipated. As I head into my last semester in the classroom and my last semester on the UU campus, I find myself reminiscing about all of the wonderful experiences that I’ve had thus far. Going in the donor body lab for gross anatomy and neuroscience, learning all about the musculoskeletal system and the neuromuscular system, meeting great people - both students and professors, who will be my colleagues in a little over a year, going out on clinical and having patients of my own for the first time, and so much more. Although I feel like I have learned so much since I started t...
