Mark Jagodzinski PT
Owner
Mark is a lifelong resident of the Northwest Phoenix, graduating from Brophy College Prep in 1992, before finishing his Bachelor of Science in Exercise Physiology at NAU in 1996. He was honored to be part of the first Doctoral class of Physical Therapists, completing his course of study with high honors in 2001. He’s spent nearly his entire career serving Orthopedic and Sportsmedicine patients across their recovery lifespan. Over the years he’s developed a passion for treating every patient as an individual and not just a diagnosis. He’s earned a reputation for paying close attention to the details and valuing the patient experience. Away from the office, you will find him spending time with his college sweetheart Mariam. Together, they’re usually trying to keep up with the Volleyball exploits of their daughters, Madelyn and Morghan. Mark also enjoys music of all kinds, and squeezing in a round of golf when able! He looks forward to the challenge of having his own practice and being able to strike an effective balance between serving the needs of his patients and growing the brand of Rise Orthopedic and Sports PT – now a partner with Modern Physical Therapy.
