What happens when a patient doesn’t follow their home exercise program? Most clinicians blame compliance. In this live conversation from CSM, Jake Irwin, PT, DPT, professor at Georgia State University and private practice owner, shares a harder truth: if patients don’t get better, it’s our responsibility to adapt.

This episode is about ownership in physical therapy, improving patient adherence, professional growth, and why networking at conferences like CSM still matters for clinic owners, educators, and frontline clinicians.

If you want better outcomes, stronger trust, and a higher standard of care — this one’s for you.
