Alec Hoffman

PT, DPT
Physical Therapist

I grew up in Cascade, IA near Dubuque before moving to Cedar Falls to pursue my bachelor’s in Movement Exercise Science. In the summer of 2018, I moved to Sioux City to attend Briar Cliff University and receive my Doctorate in Physical Therapy in the spring of 2021. I moved to Des Moines that summer with my lovely fiancee and have worked in two separate outpatient clinics over the last 3 years.

Outside of the two jobs I have had since graduation, I completed 5 clinical internships in different settings. I have focused my continuing education on the treatment of vertigo and am excited to treat patients with these conditions more frequently.

“If you had 86,400 dollars in your hand and someone took 10, would it bother you? You have that many seconds in a day, don’t let a bad 10 seconds ruin the rest of the day.”

I have no specific specialties, but have undergone continuing education related to treating vestibular and balance conditions.

The conditions I enjoy treating are vertigo, disc herniations, thoracic outlet and shoulder pain.

I enjoy the environment and the people I work with! It’s fun to come in to work every day to work with such a great team and patient population.

Outside of work, I am mostly spending time with my fiancee and dog. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family, typically while golfing, hunting, watching football, and being outdoors.
