Bump up just in case.

Hi SDN community! I've owned this domain for several years and my career took a course which I did not have need for a website with this domain name. I'm ready to let this PTDoctor.com domain go to the right individual (a DPT) so to begin reaping its obvious benefits from the most sought after...

This is in new condition book which helped me achieve a 97% in the exam. It is created by the National League for Nursing and is used in several accredied RN programs. Cost me $30 new/shipped, will sell for $15 shipped in the US. Let me know via IM. Thanks, BoneKrusher

It is expected to see many future/existing DPTs and PTs have different views on this subject. . .there should be NO responsible, non-physician health professional (doctorate degree earned or not) out there that will want to assume a (allopathic/osteopathic) physician role when a person is...
