Scott Keffer

PT, DPT, OCS, Cert. DN, Physical Therapist

I grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as a lifelong Philly sports fan (go Birds). I earned both my bachelor’s degree and Doctor of Physical Therapy from the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia. After graduating, my partner and I decided to move to Asheville to begin our careers and lean into our love for the mountains. We spend most of our free time exploring the area on foot or on wheels and soaking up everything outdoor life has to offer.
Before stepping into this role, I spent four years working in orthopedic outpatient physical therapy, treating a wide range of diagnoses. I also completed a year long residency and I am a Board-Certified Orthopaedic Clinical Specialist (OCS). Currently I am working towards obtaining my United Endurance Sports Coaching Academy Certification (UESCA) Ultrarunning coaching certification.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        I particularly enjoy treating endurance athletes, weight lifters, outdoor adventurers, and people who just love to be active. 
Top 5 values at this time in my life:
Family, Quality Time, Fun, Outdoor Activity, Fitness/Health
