Mario Davila-Salas
Mario Davila-Salas took the long way to this floor. Before healthcare he worked in a warehouse. He holds an AA in Liberal Arts from San Bernardino Valley College and a BS in Kinesiology and Exercise Science from CSU San Bernardino, and he joined Citrus Valley as a physical therapy technician in June 2025. He sets up your station and guides you through the program your physical therapist wrote, changing the setup when a movement is not sitting right that day. He names compassion and adaptability as the two things he works by, and on a treatment floor both are practical rather than abstract.
Great things come from hard work and perseverance. No excuses.
Compassion and adaptability.
Those are the two values Mario names, and they are not decorative. Compassion, on a treatment floor, is noticing that today is a harder day than last Tuesday and saying so out loud instead of pushing through it. Adaptability is changing the height, the load, or the setup so the exercise still does the job your physical therapist intended it to do. He is a technician, not a therapist, so he does not diagnose and he does not write your plan. He runs the part of the visit with the most repetition in it, which is the part where paying attention matters most.
The road to this floor.
Before the clinic, Mario worked in a warehouse. There is also an AA in Liberal Arts from San Bernardino Valley College, a BS in Kinesiology and Exercise Science from CSU San Bernardino, and a start date at Citrus Valley of June 2025. He is direct about what carried him through it, and it is the same line he keeps coming back to: hard work, perseverance, no excuses.
