Our next episode of Rehab Remix: Reimagining Boundaries features Simon Hoehn.  Simon is the Director of Physical Therapy at Aptiva Health, a Louisville based multi-disciplinary orthopedic care and rehab provider. I first connected with Simon through a spine surgeon working at Aptiva. Our interactions demonstrated Simon's passion and purpose-driven approach for what he and Aptiva are doing for orthopedic care and rehab. Our podcast discussion does not disappoint.  His first introduction to Physical Therapy started as an athlete, which soon became his professional focus through his training at Washington University in St. Louis. He coached D1 Football and even had stints as an Executive Coach. Simon brings a unique perspective to the PT profession. He emphasizes individualized care over maximizing insurance approved visits. You'll find him a strong advocate for hybrid models that blend in-clinic and at-home care, leveraging technology (like AI and remote monitoring) to empower patients, track progress, and improve outcomes. He stresses the importance of patient engagement and accountability both inside and outside the clinic.  Simon's experience as an executive coach informs his leadership style. He believes in empowering staff, reducing burnout by keeping focus on the purpose of therapy, and building a legacy of meaningful work. He acknowledges the challenges clinicians face in adopting new technologies and approaches, emphasizing the need for training, mindset shifts, and supportive accountability rather than punitive measures. He wants the field of physical therapy to be recognized for its expertise in movement science, not just as a place for routine exercises or maintenance, but as specialists in diagnosing and correcting dysfunctional movement patterns. 00:00 — Introduction to Rehab Remix 01:35 — Simon's Background and Journey to PT 04:52 — Coaching Experience 07:32 — Clinical Philosophy and Patient-Centered Care 09:36 — Hybrid Care and Technology Integration 12:35 — Value-Based Care and Personal Injury Protection 16:42 — Remote Therapeutic Monitoring and Implementation Challenges 27:30 — Wrap-up and Closing Thoughts Where to find Simon: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-hoehn-25136522/  Where to find Rohit: LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/nayakr Band Connect LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/band-connect/ Website: http://www.bandconnect.net The Rehab Remix podcast is brought to you by Band Connect Inc.
