Alumni and Friends of Emory DPT

“I am so grateful to have received the Merit Scholarship to allow me to complete my education at Emory. Completing PT school has allowed for me to grow as a pediatric clinician helping children improve their quality of life who are medically fragile, have mild to severe developmental delays, and with orthopedic and neurological conditions.” - Brittany Hensley, PT, DPT

“Being raised by two successful parents who had nothing more than a high school diploma, I was luckily already set with the skills to do my best, be kind, and work hard – and that is exactly what I did. Being awarded the Frank S. Blanton Jr. MD Humanities in Rehabilitation Scholarship was not only a financial relief, but also a meaningful recognition of my commitment to engaging students with the humanities through my work with the Journal of Humanities in Rehabilitation. At a time when I felt like it was needed the most, this scholarship provided me with some financial peace of mind and an uplifting excitement about what the future can hold.” - Melissa McCune, PT, DPT
