Rose Farnsworth, PT
My name is Rose Farnsworth and I am a Physical Therapist at SPOT. I was born and raised on Ft. Myers Beach. I am one of the rare FL natives. I attended the University of Central Florida after High school and graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology. After working in a group home in Orlando I attended Barry University and received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I enjoyed working in Psychiatric nursing and Early Intervention before I decided that I loved pediatric therapy and chose this as my dream career. I graduated in 2005 with my Masters Degree in Physical Therapy from Florida Gulf Coast University. Since then I have worked for the Lee County School District and with SPOT to provide Pediatric Physical Therapy to the tiniest and most amazing patients. I am married to my high school sweetheart for the past 18 years and we have four beautiful children. I love animals, running, and camping with the family. I am so grateful to have a job that is never really work because it is so rewarding.
