Organization:List of physiotherapy institutes in Lahore

From HandWiki

The Doctor of Physiotherapy (DPT)[1] is a five-year professional degree program in Pakistan that students take after finishing their higher secondary school, usually the F.Sc (Pre-Medical) or a comparable qualification like A-Levels with biology. The Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan validates DPT as equivalent to 17 years of education.[2]

The curriculum comprises lessons on basic medical sciences, clinical physiotherapy, rehabilitation techniques, and research procedures. The goal of the curriculum is to get graduates ready to evaluate, diagnose, and treat a wide range of physical, musculoskeletal, and neuromuscular problems.[2]

After they finish their degree, graduates can apply for a license from the Pakistan Physical Therapy Council (PPTC).[3] This allows them to work as entry-level physiotherapists. They can work in hospitals, private clinics, rehabilitation centers, sports groups, and schools as a professional.
