Mary Compton

Physical Therapist, Pediatrics

Education:

B.S: Kinesiology, University of Southern California

What I like most about being a PT: I love working with children and their families to reach their goals. It is an honor of being a small part of their journey. Watching the children I work with roll, sit, walk, or jump for the first time is very special to me. I love building these relationships with children and families.

My hobbies include: traveling, hiking, snorkeling, and cross-stitching.

A fun fact about me: I became interested in physical therapy after breaking my femur in high school. I had a long rehab journey, but I am also thankful for the experience as it opened my eyes to this profession.

If I could have any super power, it would be: teleportation. It would make traveling so much easier!

My favorite animal is: an elephant!

My favorite board game to play is: Wingspan, although I love all kinds of board games.

My favorite ice cream flavor is: Cookies and Cream.

Areas of training & expertise: I have been working in pediatrics since 2012, with experience in outpatient, early intervention, and school settings. I have a significant amount of experience with the 0-3 age range.
