Angela L. Boyle, PT, DPT, MS, ATC
Angela’s passion for physical therapy began at Oregon-Davis High School, where she was a student-athlete on the 2007 Indiana 1A State Championship basketball team, recipient of the Patricia L. Roy Indiana State Mental Attitude Award, and an Indiana East All-Star. As a result, she went on to earn her bachelor degree in athletic training from Franklin College while playing on the women's basketball team. She then pursued a master's degree in athletic training from California University of Pennsylvania and a doctor of physical therapy degree from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
After completing a clinical internship at Community Hospital East, Angela fell in love with the patients, people, and friendly environment. She has always had a desire to help others heal and recover from injury/illness through movement and exercise, but particularly values assisting the aging population—something that stems from the love of her grandparents.
In her free time, Angela enjoys traveling, reading, watching sports, playing board games, and spending time with her family, friends, and dogs. She also has a passion for baking and, between staying current on her Athletic Training and Performance Enhancement Specialist certifications, takes pleasure in making tasty treats for her family and co-workers!
