Question: how long does it take to be a doctor of physical therapy?
Answer: The traditional DPT program lasts up to 30 to 36 months. Hence, in addition to the 4 years of undergraduate, there are an additional 3 years of DPT, collectively 7 years of college education to become a physical therapist. The process of becoming a physical therapist is quite long but believe me; it's worth the time.
