Michael Smith, PT
Founder of The Smith Clinic for Physical Therapy

Michael Smith, PT - Cordova, TN Bachelor's Degree: Physical Therapy, The University of Tennessee, Memphis, TN
Bachelor's Degree: Education, The University of Memphis, Memphis, TN
Member: American Physical Therapy Association

"I became a physical therapist because I've always wanted to help people overcome their pain or debilitating condition. I went on to earn two bachelor's degrees, one in education and one in physical therapy, and today offer my patients 15 years of experience. I stay on top of the latest developments in my field through continuing education and maintain membership in the American Physical Therapy Association."

"I opened The Smith Clinic for Physical Therapy over 11 years ago with the goal of providing top-quality care to patients of all ages. My team and I do this by offering comprehensive, results-based physical therapy solutions in clean, modern 4,000-square-foot office that makes you feel right at home. Equally important, we will provide you with the same level of friendly, patient-focused care that we would want for our own family members. This means spending the time necessary to listen to your concerns and thoroughly explain your condition and treatment options."

When he isn't at the office, Michael enjoys spending time with his wife and their two children. He also has a history of giving his time and energy to projects that extend beyond physical therapy. He is actively involved with his church’s Bible studies and outreach projects at homeless shelters.
