what is the scope of graduating from pdm college bachelor of physiotherapy
Answer (1)
Hello,
Physiotherapy is a relatively young branch of medical science. In the developed countries, physios are recognized as first contact professionals (this means that if you have pain or other symptoms, you can directly see a physio instead of being referred by someone). In India however, the recognition of physiotherapy as a science is currently low. This emerges from the fact that physios do not have a council or a representation at the national level unlike the IMA.
Having said that, being a young science, physios have a lot of scope. They can work in multiple fields- orthopedics, sports, cardio-pulmonary, community health and neurology. This depends on which field they pick in their Masters'. Getting a physiotherapy degree requires 4 years of medical education following the 10+2 in Science and answering an entrance exam.
The options for physios are- working with a hospital, working in physio companies, starting an independent clinic, associating themselves with players/sports teams and tying up with corporates/gyms to name a few. Like every young and emerging field, the possibilities are endless!
