Serving the community and keeping runners running: Kip Callahan (class of 2026) volunteered at the San Antonio Marathon as a medical provider to triage and treat marathon runners. From wrapping ankles to monitoring blood sugars, Kip was able to work with an interprofessional team to get runners back on the course. Thank you to the crew at Texas Physical Therapy Specialists for providing this opportunity for our student! 🏃‍♂️

Congratulations to Isaac Hayen on being selected as the Department of Physical Therapy August Student of the Month.

This is what his nominator, Quinten Vasa from the class of 2026, said about Isaac:

Isaac exemplifies the Ignatian value of cura personalis—care for the whole person—through his selfless dedication to his classmates’ growth and success. During his week off, Isaac devoted extra time to helping a peer prepare for the CCPE, practicing clinical examination and intervention techniques together and empowering them to approach the exam with greater confidence. Isaac’s daily joy, positivity, and genuine commitment to the Creighton DPT community inspire all who work alongside him.

Congratulations Isaac! We are proud of you.

Congratulations to Tori Rands on being selected as the Department of Physical Therapy July Student of the Month.

This is what his nominator, Dr. Julie Hoffman, said about Tori:
Tori has been a true leader within the PT ILAC 2026 class. As the point person for the “Hire a PT Student” fundraiser, she not only coordinated student involvement but also personally stepped in to ensure tasks were completed on time and commitments were honored, especially when others were unavailable. Tori leads with quiet dedication and humility. These attributes will positively impact the people of the Dominican Republic and beyond.

Congratulations Tori! We are proud of you.
