Brooke Thomas

Client Care Coordinator

Brooke is a Knoxville native and attended Auburn University. There she earned a degree in Kinesiology and Exercise Science. She has a vested interest in the value of physical therapy because she has been on the patient side after a previous knee surgery. Brooke is excited to be on the other side and help patients through their wellness journey.

In her free time, Brooke enjoys going on the lake and traveling to the beach with her family. Her favorite way to exercise is to go on long walks outside. 

Fun Fact: Dr. Paul Michael was one of Brooke's physical therapists when she had knee surgery.
