Eddie, PTA
Clinic Director
FYZICAL Hoffman Estates

I completed my physical therapist assistant degree from Elgin Community College in 2019 and joined FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers immediately upon finishing school – it was the best decision I’ve ever made, and I love the team environment, ongoing mentorship, and opportunities to grow and develop professionally.  I live in Elgin with my wife and daughter (with another little girl on the way). I’ve always known I wanted to help people, but I debated a lot of different career paths until I finally found physical therapy.

I enjoy lifting weights and bodybuilding and have always been interested in how the human body works – now, as a physical therapist assistant, I can combine my passions for helping people and maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle with the knowledge and skills of physical rehabilitation to improve my patients’ quality of life and everyday function, from something as complex as running a marathon to something as foundational as picking up their child without pain.
