Meet Dr. Marnie Wortman, dpt and midland park director at iron pt

midland park, nj

Why did you go into PT? I went into physical therapy because I didn't want a desk job, didn't want to teach, and wasn't sure what I could do with a biology degree! I knew I wanted to work with people, but didn't know how much I would love the profession until I got into it!

What do you like most about being a PT?  Meeting all of you!

Where did you go to college? Stockton College, BS in Biology and DPT in Physical Therapy

What was your first job? My first job was a merchandiser for Fossil watches in Macys. I put the watches on the displays and followed pictures so everything looked exactly like the company wanted. My first PT job was at St. Joseph's Hospital in Paterson where I worked the ortho/trauma floor and saw everyone right after surgery.

How do you like to stay active? Crossfit and run!

How would friends describe you? After taking a poll from friends, they would describe me as loyal, dependable and caring.

How do you recharge? Spending time with family and friends! Even if it's just a walk or sitting together and chatting it always helps raise spirits and recharge the mind and body!

Do you have any interesting hobbies? I love to cook!  I hate buying anything from a store, so if I can make it from scratch, usually I will. Also, my husband and I make specialty cocktails!

Mountain cabin, beach house or big city condo? Beach house!

favorite....
