J. Kyle Hadley PT, DPT

Born in the bustling city of Houston, Texas, my earliest memories are painted with the vibrant hues of Las Vegas, where I spent my elementary school years. Transitioning to the coastal beauty of San Diego after fifth grade, I found solace and joy in the sandy shores despite never mastering the art of surfing.

Upon completing high school, my journey led me to the picturesque landscapes of Idaho, where I’ve rooted myself ever since, with brief stints in the southeast and now the southwest. Educationally, I earned my B.S. from BYU-Idaho, forever carrying a fervent allegiance to BYU sports. Continuing my academic pursuits, I obtained my DPT from Idaho State University, relishing the enriching experience nestled in the heart of Pocatello.

Beyond the realms of academia and professional life, I find immense fulfillment in family and outdoor adventures. As a devoted husband and father of three, I revel in coaching my children in sports like flag football and soccer, fostering their growth and passion for the game. An avid mountain biker, I find serenity and thrill exploring the trails of the Owyhees and the Eagle Bike Park. Additionally, I indulge in the leisurely pursuit of disc golf, with Mallard Park ranking as my favorite course, closely followed by Eagle Island State Park and Ann Morrison.

Kenneth Gardner PT, DPT

Growing up surrounded by the vibrant landscapes of the Western states, including traversing the sunny landscapes of Southern California, I’ve been shaped by the rugged beauty and adventurous spirit of the region. Armed with an undergraduate degree from The Master’s College and a graduate degree from California State University Northridge, I’ve dedicated myself to the field of rehabilitation with fervor and determination.

Beyond the confines of work, my heart finds solace in the company of my beloved wife and two wonderful children. An avid enthusiast of outdoor adventures, I seize every opportunity to immerse myself in nature’s embrace, whether it’s casting a line while fishing, pitching a tent for camping, or exploring scenic trails through hiking and backpacking. I’m a true sports aficionado, relishing the thrill of competition in practically any athletic endeavor.

Yet, amidst these pursuits, my greatest joy lies in witnessing the transformation of individuals as they reclaim levels of function they once deemed unattainable. It’s this privilege of guiding and supporting others on their journey to rehabilitation that fuels my passion and purpose each day.
