Jacob Hangartner, DPT

Jacob has called Spokane home since 2018, completing his undergraduate studies at Whitworth University and earning his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Eastern Washington University. He began his physical therapy journey at Physical Therapy Associates in 2022 as a therapy aide and has since transitioned into his role as a DPT.

Jacob enjoys working with patients of all ages and activity levels, from young athletes striving to improve performance to older adults focused on maintaining mobility and independence. A former Division III football player at Whitworth, he has a strong appreciation for athletic performance and is particularly passionate about endurance training and sports rehabilitation.

Outside the clinic, Jacob is an avid outdoor enthusiast with a love for endurance sports and adventure. He enjoys triathlon, running, cycling, hiking, skiing, and exploring the outdoors whenever possible. Jacob and his wife especially enjoy spending time at Priest Lake and discovering the many parks, lakes, and natural areas throughout the greater Spokane region.
