About Kelley Frank, PT, DPT, CLT-LANA
Kelley Frank is a physical therapist, with additional certification as a lymphedema therapist (CLT), LANA (Lymphology Association of North America), and further advanced training in Lipedema. As a certified lymphedema therapist since 2018, Kelley found a further need for therapists specializing in Lipedema which led her to further her education through research and available courses to better serve patients in need as there is a gross mismatch in need and providers. Kelley’s passion is largely found in service, and filling needs particularly in an underserved population.
Kelley has been a physical therapist for over 10 years, having received her Doctorate in Physical Therapy (DPT) degree from Drexel University in 2013. Her professional journey has also included advanced coursework in TMJ, Breast Cancer Rehabilitation, Graston technique, and the McKenzie Method. Her unique skill set with advanced training in orthopedics as well as lymphedema allows her to serve her lymphedema and lipedema patients in any capacity given her unique understanding of the challenges their diagnoses can present.
When she’s not caring for patients, she enjoys spending time with her husband, 2 daughters, and 2 rescue labs going for walks or spending time at the beach. She loves walking, crocheting, and baking.
