DR. KATE MIHEVC EDWARDS -Redefining Running Sports Medicine
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Kate Mihevc Edwards, PT, DPT, OCS, a physical therapist and board-certified orthopedic specialist with over 15 years of experience in running medicine. She’s the founder of Precision Performance Running Medicine Clinic in Atlanta, the RUNsource app, and co-host of the new podcast Interdisciplinary Case Miles.
We dive into what it takes to build a truly interdisciplinary approach to athlete care and the importance of finding the right provider for your needs—especially for postpartum athletes returning to performance. Kate shares her insights on bridging the gap between research and clinical practice, working collaboratively across disciplines, and how to know when it’s time to see a PT. We also talk about the realities of entrepreneurship, balancing work and family, and what it’s like to branch out into podcasting and tech as a clinician.
We Talk About:
-starting a podcast
-the value of an interdisciplinary team
-finding the right provider
-working with postpartum moms
-when it’s time to see a PT
