MEET THE PT
April Gillhespy, PT, DPT
Dr. Gillhespy is passionate about helping women navigate the many changes their bodies go through during pregnancy and after childbirth. As a mother herself, she finds it very rewarding to be able to help moms find relief from common conditions they once believed to be a "normal" part of motherhood. Dr. Gillhespy approaches each client as a unique individual and addresses the body as a whole to develop comprehensive care plans tailored to personalized goals and needs.
Outside of work, Dr. Gillhespy enjoys staying active - running, doing yoga, hiking, and lifting weights. She loves to travel and enjoys trying new restaurants with her family and friends.
