📍 WHERE ARE THEY NOW? | OHIO Eastern Alumni Series

This week’s alumni spotlight features David Neavin, Supervisor of Clinical Outcomes, Physical Therapist and APTA Certified Clinical Instructor with Orthopedic One in Delaware, Ohio.

David graduated cm laude from OHIO Eastern in 2013 with a degree in Exercise Physiology. Just two weeks after graduation, he began graduate school at Wheeling Jesuit University, earning his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2015.

When asked how his degree from OHIO Eastern helped shape where he is today, David shared:

“My journey and success thus far all started at OUE. Going there truly got me started off on the right foot and is still today the foundation of my education as well as my professional career.”

David credits his undergraduate experience at OHIO Eastern with preparing him not only for graduate school, but also for success throughout his career.

“I cannot emphasize enough how my undergraduate studies at OUE not only prepared me for grad school but also allowed me to excel beyond all others.”

After beginning his career in Wilmington, Ohio, David joined Orthopedic One in 2017 when the organization was still in its early years. Today, Orthopedic One is recognized as Ohio’s largest orthopedic physician group and one of the leading outpatient orthopedic providers in the nation. Over the past 10.5 years, David has advanced into leadership while continuing to provide patient care and mentor future physical therapists.

“I loved my time at OUE and I believe it is a great place to get a degree from. I am proud to say I went there.”

Thank you, David, for representing OHIO Eastern and making an impact in the field of physical therapy.
