Greyson Daviau: Inside AT-PT Collaboration - Athlete First, Ego Never

Welcome to the True Sports Physical Therapy Podcast. In this episode, Dr. Yoni Rosenblatt sits down with Greyson Daviau, an athletic trainer at York College of Pennsylvania who brings a collaborative, patient-first approach to how ATs and PTs work together.

 

Greyson walks through the real overlap and divergence between athletic trainers and physical therapists: where scopes align in rehab, where ATs bring acute care and daily athlete access that PTs simply don't have, and why the grind of 60-70 hour weeks in a training room builds a different kind of clinical readiness. The conversation also covers how to manage multiple athletes at different stages of recovery simultaneously, and why front-loading education and autonomy is the key to making that work.

 

One of the most honest moments is the discussion around gatekeeping on both sides. Greyson breaks down why ATs sometimes view PTs as too conservative and why PTs sometimes feel shut out, then explains how direct clinician-to-clinician conversations at True Sports York have cut through those narratives entirely.

 

Whether you're a sports PT trying to build better relationships with athletic trainers, an AT navigating the evolving profession, or a clinic owner thinking about interdisciplinary collaboration, this one delivers. Tune in.
