Transforming Orthopedic Practice With Practical Learning

Paul Marquis, PT, founder of Ortho Eval Pal, entrepreneur, and host of the Ortho Eval Pal Podcast, brings over 30 years of experience in orthopedic and sports-related evaluations and treatments. He is dedicated to helping medical providers enhance their skills and build confidence through online orthopedic courses, empowering them to excel in their practice.

Reigniting Passion for Orthopedic Practice

After 25 years as a physical therapist, Paul sought fresh ways to reignite his passion for the profession. This led to the creation of Ortho Eval Pal, a platform designed to simplify orthopedic examination skills through engaging videos, informative podcasts, and practical guidance.

What Makes Us Unique

Through real patient cases and decades of clinical experience, Ortho Eval Pal bridges the gap between textbook knowledge and practical application. The focus is on simplifying evaluations, building confidence, and offering strategies to streamline clinical practice.

LOVE this podcast!

I just discovered this podcast recently, and I'm loving listening to all the old episodes during my commute.  I'm starting a new job in an orthopedic outpatient clinic after years of working inpatient neuro and home health, and this has been the perfect refresher!  Paul does a great job of keeping it all interesting and going into the perfect amount of depth on each topic.

Great resource!

Paul is such a great resource!  He teaches in a clear way and covers a huge array of issues you will likely encounter in the ortho setting. His podcasts have helped streamline my PT evaluation process, and I'm more confident in choosing treatments. OEP is one of my “go-to” resources, in addition to his YouTube channel to see real examples of conditions and evaluation techniques. So appreciative!

Proficient and Professional!

Paul Marquis is a master of the physical exam in the musculoskeletal system. As a provider who advocates for his patients in the most admirable way, when there are questions about physical exam findings and imaging findings, Paul works to understand any discrepancy to ensure his patients receive the best care. Perhaps most admirable is his ability to teach others so that his skillset benefits more people than he could possibly see alone. I will continue to refer friends and family to Paul and his team for diagnostic and therapeutic considerations. He is a consummate professional, an admirable clinician and bar none, the most proficient physical examiner I’ve ever worked with. He is a physical therapist par excellence.

Paul’s Goals

  • Empower Medical Providers: Enhance confidence in orthopedic evaluation skills.
  • Streamline Clinical Exams: Make examinations efficient and effective.
  • Promote Cost-Effective Care: Help reduce healthcare costs through improved management practices.
  • Showcase Real Cases: Provide insights from real patients with real injuries.
  • Deliver Practical Insights: Share expert “pearls” gained from 28+ years in practice.
