Hello Ryan: How are you doing these days???
I will answer your question by saying that as a therapist, you will be challenged to treat many types of impairments that you weren't formally educated on. You will be required to learn about these impairments and provide best-treatment to address them as they relate to occupational performance deficits. Treating lower extremity impairments may be an example of how you will need to expand your repertoire of knowledge. Why didn't you learn about LE impairments?
