Citrus Valley Physical Therapy

Dr. Nicolas Escobar

DPT · Physical Therapist

Dr. Nicolas Escobar was born and raised in Bakersfield, California, and played football and ran track in high school. He studied Kinesiology at San Diego State, then earned his Doctor of Physical Therapy at Loma Linda University. His experience is broadly orthopedic and includes ACL and meniscus rehabilitation, the kind of recovery measured in months rather than weeks, where the last stretch of the work is the part that decides how you come back.

In Their Words
I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
Michael Jordan, quoted by Dr. Nicolas Escobar
Core Values

Hard work, honesty, kindness.

Dr. Escobar names those three, and the Jordan line above is the one he keeps. In an ACL or meniscus rehab it comes down to honesty about where you actually are in the timeline instead of where you would like to be, and then the unglamorous loading work that carries you the rest of the way there.

Outside the Clinic

Bakersfield, football, and track.

Dr. Escobar grew up in Bakersfield, California, where he played football and competed in track through high school. Kinesiology at San Diego State followed, and his doctorate at Loma Linda University brought him to this part of the Inland Empire.
