Emily Bradshaw is a Physical Therapist who received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Medical University of South Carolina in 2009. Originally from the Charleston, SC area, Emily now resides in Spring Lake, NC with her military husband, wild children and rambunctious dog. Emily's interests include Adult Neuro Rehabilitation and Pediatrics.   She started her career in Outpatient Neuro Rehab, was able to make the switch to Pediatrics after a year, and has been in the Pediatric setting since with experience in Early Intervention, Outpatient, and Home Health settings. Pediatrics truly is the best and she feels it's an environment where she is constantly challenged, motivated to learn, and never grow too big to have fun! Her passion lies in meeting families wherever they are, being a source of encouragement, and helping them to be excited and expectant for their child's future development. She is excited to be a part of a clinic who values education and collaboration to treat the whole child. In her free time Emily enjoys traveling with her family, staying active with Crossfit, having trampoline battles with her husband and kids, watching her son play football and daughter do competitive cheer, and, occasionally, some quiet time at the beach.
