More About Me - Courtney
MEET
COURTNEY PUGH
Physical Therapist Assistant
Pediatrics • Pediatric Pelvic • Orthopedics
BACKGROUND
Courtney is a military brat and was born in Wichita, KS. She moved to Colorado Springs with her family in 2005. She has been in Colorado ever since, and loves spending time outdoors with her family and enjoying everything this beautiful state has to offer. In her free time, Courtney enjoys hiking, camping, foraging, and traveling.
EDUCATION
Courtney earned her B.A. in Biological Anthropology and minor in Biomedical Science at Colorado State University Fort Collins in 2017, and then her Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program at Pikes Peak State College. She is passionate about providing exceptional, patient-centered care.
FAMILY
Courtney is married to her wonderful husband Josh, and they both work hard to give their spoiled house cat the best life possible. They love spending time at home with the aforementioned spoiled cat, as well as exploring the great outdoors and being Colorado weekend warriors whenever possible.
MOTHER OF PLANTS
Courtney began hoarding (oops, collecting) houseplants during the pandemic, and now enjoys caring for many (too many) houseplants in what has now been designated as “the plant room.” She has honed her green thumb with trial and error (mostly error) over the past several years, and is the proud plant parent of more than 20 indoor plants. We honor the leafy friends who sacrificed their lives for this endeavor.

FUN FACT
Courtney has a love of the human sciences that runs deep. Like real deep. Did you catch her degree in Biological Anthropology and Biomedical Science? And then, that love paired with the desire to help people ultimately led her to pursue physical therapy as well - the body in all its wonder, put to motion.
