Discover How PT Lanisse Navigated her Dream PT Job in the US
Achieving the American Dream: A Filipino Physical Therapist’s Journey to the USA
For many Filipino physical therapists, the “Dream PT job in the US” can feel like a long and uncertain marathon.
Licensing exams, credential evaluations, visa processing, and finding the right employer often make the journey overwhelming.
But for PT Lanisse Camille Nas (DLSMHSI Batch 2017), the path became clearer with the right guidance and partnership.
Today, she proudly stands as the 412th Grandison Physical Therapist deployed to the United States — a milestone that reflects not just personal achievement, but a structured, supported pathway for foreign physical therapists pursuing a career in the USA.
The Roadmap to Success: From NPTE to US Deployment
PT Lanisse’s journey highlights the essential steps every internationally educated PT must take:
1. Preparation
She enrolled at GH Review Center, a trusted Grandison partner, for structured NPTE preparation.
2. Examination
She successfully passed the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE) — the key requirement for PT licensure in the United States.
3. Immigration & Visa Processing
Immediately after passing, she transitioned into a guided visa and immigrant status process, ensuring compliance and smooth progression toward US deployment.
“The process is long, but it’s moving. It’s fine to wait because we are doing the right process.” — PT Lanisse Camille Nas
Her words reflect something many aspiring US-based PTs need to hear: the journey requires patience, but with the right system, progress is steady and secure.
