OPTIM COMT Program

You may have seen some posts earlier on our site about OPTIM Physical Therapy. Several months ago, Chris and Jim joined OPTIM Physical Therapy to create a COMT program based out of Scottsdale, AZ. The mission of the program is to create a residency-like experience for those who are unable to make the financial and location commitment. The program consists of 6 weekend-long courses on-site, in addition to Medbridge courses and online mentoring between classes. Throughout the year, the class as a whole will improve their clinical skills and reasoning while working as a team. Additionally, with regular discussion of recent literature, you will be prepared to sit for the OCS. Below you will find a video of a google hangout where the three faculty members of the OPTIM COMT program discuss the formatting. What is not discussed in the video is how the mentoring will occur. Between each course, all participants will complete 2 mentoring forms where they summarize a patient case they are working on currently. In a google hangout, all program participants and the faculty will discuss the cases to provide guidance and alternative perspectives.
