Farzana Mohamedali, PT, DPT

Farzana is a Husky twice over, earning her Doctor of Physical Therapy and her degree in biology and physiology at the University of Washington. Her training covered unusual ground for a sports therapist. She managed full caseloads in inpatient neurological rehab with stroke, brain injury, and spinal cord injury patients, then spent a rotation in Truckee, California treating skiers, snowboarders, and cyclists, using force plate data and handheld dynamometry to guide return to sport decisions. That range shows up in how she reads a case.

She treats in English, Spanish, and Gujarati, which means more patients get their care in the language they actually think in. Before PT school she worked as a PT aide guiding 60 patients a week, coordinated COVID-19 testing research across five King County sites, and spent the last four years at the Washington Department of Health making sure newborns with abnormal screening results get connected to care fast.

Her research earned Best Platform at the APTA Combined Sections Meeting in 2026, and she is a co-author on a published cardiac electrophysiology study.

A former co-captain of the UW Sailing Team who competed nationally, Farzana is also AIARE avalanche certified and has summited every volcano in Washington. She knows what it takes to train for something hard.
