Meet Your Concussion Specialist

Joe Burkeland, Doctor of Physical Therapy

After suffering through numerous concussions and not receiving adequate rehabilitation, he knew there must be a better way. Over the last decade, Joe has pushed himself to learn about the brain and body in an effort to help others heal.

He completed a Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree at the University of Wisconsin. He then worked in a vestibular specialty clinic in Austin, Texas before leading a concussion clinic in Fort Collins, Colorado for over three years.

Through his career as a concussion specialist, Joe has helped hundreds of people on their path to full recovery after a brain injury. He specializes in treating acute injuries (2 days to 6 weeks after injury) and persisting symptoms (6 weeks or longer after injury).

He lives in Fort Collins, Colorado with his wife (we got married last year!) and their two goldendoodles, Kenai and August. He and his family enjoy traveling, hiking, seeing live music, exercising (he’s a CrossFit coach too!) and camping!
