Jessi Zimmerman

Assistant Director - Bowie and Laurel clinics

Hi, I'm Jessi, a Physical Therapist Assistant. I am a graduate from the AACC PTA program, class of 2011. I've worked across a wide range of settings-from outpatient orthopedics and pediatrics to home health and skilled nursing-bringing a well-rounded, adaptable approach to every session. I believe therapy should be effective and enjoyable, so I focus on making movement fun, functional, and tailored to each person's goals. Growing up playing sports taught me the value of resilience and teamwork-qualities I bring to every patient relationship. When I'm not in the clinic, you'll find me baking something sweet, diving into a DIY home project, or cheering on the Ravens! I live in Annapolis with my husband, and our cat and dog, who keeps us on our toes and active!
