Hi, I’m Dr. Emily Caldwell

(She/Her)

Let’s get to know each other

I’m a Doctor of Physical Therapy and mom to two amazing daughters.

I grew up in Colorado and spent my college and grad school years in Chicago before moving to Portland. I love city life, but also can’t get enough of the outdoors and am grateful that Portland has it all. I love to hike, bake, and cozy up with a coffee- which is hopefully still hot. I enjoy reading, backyard bug hunts, and neighborhood treasure walks with my girls. I grew up figure skating and snowboarding and still love to get out on the ice speedskating or up to the mountain to ski when I get the chance.

You deserve better

I started The Mobile Mama PT so I could provide my patients with the care I wanted to receive after having my babies. It was so difficult and stressful to get out of the house for appointments and then I was limited by what my insurance company was willing to cover. People need and deserve so much more after birth and through any pelvic floor dysfunction. So many of these conditions are brushed off socially, and even by medical providers, as not important, or too complex, leaving people to suffer in silence.

Your health and pelvic floor matter to me. This is my specialty, not just one of the areas I treat. I’m passionate about helping you achieve your goals and believe PT can be so much better and more successful when you are paired with a clinician who is specially trained in pelvic health and has the time to get to the root of your symptoms for lasting relief.
