• David Simmons, PT, DPT

    David grew up in Massachusetts, just outside of Boston.  He attended the University of Connecticut where he studied Allied Health and met his wife, Kristie. He went to PT school at Simmons college in Boston and graduated in 2015. He was drawn to Denver by the mountains and the outdoor activities that are close by. 
    ​
    When David is not working he can be found somewhere in the mountains skiing, hiking, camping, fishing and much more. David, his wife Kristie and their dog, Shady, love to travel and often take trips to the coast in the summer to see family and get their ocean/seafood fix. David remains an avid Patriots, Celtics, Bruins and Red Sox fan. ​
