Dr. Kendal Anderson, PT, DPT grew up in a small town in central California playing water polo and basketball and has been interested in Physical Therapy since high school where she interned in an outpatient clinic. She did her undergraduate work at UC San Diego then continued onto her graduate work at University of Southern California where she received her Doctorate in Physical Therapy.  Her first job was at a hospital in San Diego where she worked both in the hospital with patients and with outpatients. After getting married she moved to the Bay area where she has worked at an acute hospital with a large variety of patients with a focus on ICU and those with neurological conditions. Her interest and focus on wellness and approaching patient care from a whole person approach has always been a part of her practice but really grew after she started her family.  

 

When she is not treating patients Dr. Kendal enjoys chasing her young children and traveling/exploring with her family. She enjoys being outside but her happy place is on a beach.  Kendal tries to see all of her clients as more than just their injury, they have lives, families and activities that they want to return to in a functional and pain free way. She is a Certified Brain Injury Specialist and Certified Stroke Rehabilitation Specialist. She also has a Gertiatric Kinesiology Taping Practitioner Certificate. She believes we all need to move and feel good in our bodies no matter our stage of life or where we are physically in this moment.
