Did you know that Grey's Anatomy had 8.7 million viewers during the 7 days after the premiere across streaming platforms? Imagine if we could increase public awareness of the PT profession to that many viewers.

Picture this: The Office but set in an outpatient PT clinic. Episode 1: a patient comes in wondering why WD-40 isn't helping their arthritis.

DID YOU KNOW- Among those studied, only 33% of prior PT users and 29% of non users would have PT as their first choice provider for treating injury, pain, and loss of mobility? Imagine how this could change if PT was shown as a first choice provider in the media! #dudpthod

Hi Dr. Ken Jeong, we are Duke DPT students and are advocating for a greater positive presence of Physical Therapy in the entertainment industry. What are your thoughts on including more physical therapy characters in television and film? #ForeverDuke #GoDuke #MorePTonTV #duDPThod

Many clinicians have television-worthy stories from their practice. Do you have any TV worthy stories from your experiences in the clinic? Respond below! #dudpthod

If being a consultant for a PT character on a TV show was available as a CEU, would you do it? Tell us why below! Duke DPT Duke Health Rehabilitation Services #dudpthod

In season 4, episode 2 of Black Mirror, one of the main characters works as a physical therapist. We love seeing more representation of the profession on TV shows! If you've seen this episode, let us know how accurate you found this portrayal of the profession #dudpthod

In addition to our amazing mentors, we have also had the support of other faculty from Duke's DPT program. Huge thank you to Dr. Rosie Canizares, Dr. Tiffany Adams, and Dr. Kelly Reynolds for co-sponsoring our motion🫶 #dudpthod

The APTA created the media corps to "serve as a resource for journalists who are working on stories that involve physical therapy practice, research, policy" and more. Click the link to learn more! #dudpthod apta.org/need-help-cont…

The 2022 season of Grey's Anatomy resulted in an increased association between qualities of courage and patient satisfaction with physicians.   What attributes do you envision for physical therapists portrayed in the media? (Perhaps the APTA core values? 👀) #dudpthod

Can we talk about how House MD used his cane on the wrong side for 8 whole seasons? If only he had a PT on the team! Let's get physical therapists the TV spotlight they deserve. #dudpthod
