Finding Professional Freedom as a PT in Eugene
At Zenith, I left insurance constraints behind to focus on the runners and cyclists I always hoped to serve — with true schedule autonomy and real collaboration.
"Zenith let me treat the way I believe PT should be done — deeply, collaboratively, and without compromise." - Dr. Mike Robinson DPT, OCS, CSCS
Zenith Performance and Wellness redefines what it means to be a healthcare provider in Eugene, Oregon. At Zenith, my treatment plans were no longer constrained by insurance limitations. I was finally able to work with the running and cycling clientele I had long hoped to serve.
Zenith also helped me engage with the local community in meaningful ways—integrating RunHub screens into my work and encouraging consistent outreach to the cycling community. The schedule flexibility was unmatched: I could choose when and how long I worked, something no other business had offered me.
Leadership and Team Culture
Jesse consistently prioritized transparency in communication, reflecting his values of honesty and integrity. Our meetings were collaborative and focused, and I always felt heard and supported. Sharing and consulting on cases with Jesse, Jenn, and Mariel was a highlight. Each brought a unique perspective and treated me as a peer. I learned new techniques and approaches through their continuing education:
Mariel: Postural Restoration Institute and ACL rehabilitation
Jesse: McKenzie Diagnosis and Therapy, with a focus on running
Jenn: Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy and running performance
Their expertise and openness made case collaboration both insightful and rewarding.
Operations and Support
James streamlined scheduling and payment systems, making the client experience seamless. Even with a largely independent clientele, his administrative support smoothed out logistics and improved efficiency. His ability to build systems that work is a breath of fresh air.
Massage and Training Team
JB is a highly collaborative massage therapist who integrates smoothly into physical therapy cases. Clients feel calm, cared for, and comfortable in his presence.
Ropheka and Alex are knowledgeable personal trainers who work closely with the team to help clients reach their goals. They excel with performance-focused individuals and those who require detailed cueing and support.
Facility and Equipment
Zenith offers the best training equipment in Eugene, including barbell, agility, and flexibility tools essential for athletic development. If something is missing, Jesse is transparent about ordering new gear to meet team and client needs—he understands that better equipment means better outcomes.
Conclusion
