Current Residents

Emily Lapes

"I grew up in Waco, TX and graduated from Baylor with my undergraduate degree. Having now been a part of the Baylor DPT program it is safe to say Baylor is family and Waco is home. I am eager to continue to develop my knowledge and skills through the Baylor Scott and White-Baylor Orthopedic Residency Program. This program creates an opportunity to grow in so many ways that will allow me to be more impactful to the community. Outside of physical therapy, I enjoy connecting with family and friends and spending more time outside than inside. I value connection to the local church have had the privilege of serving in ministry on three different continents. Through this residency I am so excited to continue to serve and care for the Waco community I call home."

"I hail from Los Angeles, CA with an undergraduate degree in economics.  After graduation I worked as an account manager for 4 years.  Nonetheless, I felt unfulfilled in this line of work and decided to go back to school to pursue a career in physical therapy and am now 2 months away from graduating Baylor’s DPT program and starting my second career. Baylor’s DPT program has influenced me in many ways and one of those ways was introducing me to residency programs. Now, I have the exciting opportunity to embark on my journey to becoming an orthopaedic clinical specialist with the Baylor Orthopedic residency!"
