Dr Tanya Doman (Yousry) has been a licensed Physical Therapist for over 25years -the majority of those include animal education and experience!

After graduating at the very top of her class, she became skilled in all aspects of therapy - pediatrics through geriatrics with a special emphasis on sports medicine. Then in 2000, a lifelong love and experience in the animal world married together with the idea of treating 4-legged, furry individuals - originally born out of her own animals' necessity - at a time when very few professionals were pursuing, or had even heard of, this niche practice area. 

Since then, she has completed extensive education to further her knowledge of these special, non-human clients! Currently, she is the only licensed Physical Therapist in Southern California who has her clinical doctorate (DPT or Doctor of Physical Therapy) as well as her CCRP (Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner). She is a frequent attendee at veterinary symposiums across the country as well as an avid analyzer of cutting edge research so her treatments are modern, effective and evidence-based. 

As a season clinician she has vast experience with wellness programs, post-injury rehabilitation and the use of modalities as well as their purpose. She is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (NSCA), Certified Equine Sports Massage Therapist (ARI), Registered Yoga Teacher (YA), Certified Small Animal LASER Practitioner...to name a few! In addition, she is one of only a handful of Physical Therapists certified as an "Expert Consultant", as well as a Practice Monitor, by the Physical Therapy Board of California. Dr. Doman has served as an Expert Witness on civil legal matters related to Physical Therapy. She served as the California Liaison to the APTA's Animal Rehabilitation SIG since the near-inception of the program until 2015 and has remained a tireless political advocate for animal care and standards for nearly years. 

She is licensed in CA, TN and Colorado and successfully obtained her "Authority to Treat Animals" status by the Colorado licensing board. 

In her occasional off-time, she is a self-confessed shopaholic, fitness instructor and practices amateur free-diving in Hawaii and various tropical locales.
