The following is a partial transcript of the video.

Leslie Gallagher McMahon, CCMT, CCRT: I'd always wanted to be a veterinarian, but I was never good at math. So I knew I couldn't get into UC Davis, which is right by where I grew up...But after I realized there was nobody in California doing any form of physical therapy, I thought, you know what, I'm going to go back to school and learn how to do it myself. So at 35 I went back to school, I went to vet tech school...But then I went to human massage school, and then I went to canine massage school and then finally canine rehab school opened up.

I am so excited to be invited to talk. I am super passionate about rehab. If you could give me 10 different topics in rehab, and I could talk to you for an hour about all of them. I really want to spread the gospel of how helpful rehab is in conjunction with your regular veterinary practice.
