PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
Dyllan grew up on his family farm in Miles, IA, and was active in baseball and golf in high school. After spending time as a wildlife technician in the mountains of Utah, Dyllan knew he was ready to pursue a career that would allow him to make a positive impact on people’s lives. Dyllan enjoys running, weightlifting, traveling and spending time outdoors with his wife, Katy, and their dogs, Echo and Chancho. Dyllan enjoys working with individuals to get them out of pain and back to doing what they love through physical therapy. “The most rewarding part of being a physical therapist is giving someone back what they have lost, may it be walking again or playing their sport competitively.” Since graduating, Dyllan has continued to learn about a wide variety of orthopedic injuries and has developed a particular interest in treating vestibular disorders and concussions. “I enjoy the problem solving that comes with both diagnosing and treating each individual because everyone is different and has their own story. I’m here to help them learn about the body and teach them how to make it strong and resilient through movement.”
