Meet JD 👋
JD Waters is a homegrown local guy raised on his family farm in Hudson, MI.
He grew up working hard, participating in 4-H, and competing in sports—playing Tiger football as a fullback and linebacker, and becoming a 2x state wrestling champion.
JD earned a wrestling scholarship to the University of Indianapolis, where he completed his undergraduate degree, then went on to earn his Doctorate of Physical Therapy from BGSU.
After finishing school, JD moved back to Hudson out of a deep love for family and community. When he’s not serving patients, you’ll likely find him golfing, riding his Harley in the summer, or snowmobiling in the winter.
JD recently completed the Gray Institute® for Functional Transformation (GIFT)—a 40-week mentorship program in Applied Functional Science®—further equipping him to help patients move and feel their best. He loves the family atmosphere at 3DPT and the constant support he receives from his coworkers.
JD brings a foundation of hard work, professionalism, and joy to our team each day.
Thank you, JD, for relentlessly striving, achieving, and continuing to learn so you can provide the very best care to our patients.
We truly appreciate YOU!
