Blair Smith, PT, DPT

I grew up in Wisconsin, and received a Bachelor’s of Science in Computer Science from Wake Forest University in North Carolina in 1988 and then worked in Atlanta, Georgia as a systems analyst for nine years. I decided to follow a passion for human movement and so I spent a year as a Personal Trainer and Taekwondo instructor. My family and I moved to Park City Ut and where I worked as a Lift Operations Manager in the ski industry for three and a half years and had the opportunity to work for the 2002 Olympics at the jumping and sliding venue as a Field of Play Emergency Medical Technician. I returned to the University of Utah and received a Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2008 and began my career as a Physical Therapist in Neurological Rehabilitation for the University of Utah for 2 years, before transitioning to Intermountain Health Care, Park City Medical Center working in Outpatient Orthopedics which allowed me the opportunity to see a wide variety of issues that benefit from physical therapy from sports medicine to balance issues and many conditions in between. Having been a “snow bird” in Scottsdale for a few years, once our children moved away for college, my wife and I took permanent residency in Scottsdale in 2017. Besides physical therapy, I enjoy hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing and the occasional hand of bridge.
