Kevin Hulsey PT, DPT
“Insatiable” seems like an odd description of Kevin Hulsey, physical therapist and CEO of RehabAuthority. In fact, the thing that stands out about Kevin when you meet him is his calm, quiet and easygoing nature. But Kevin’s drive to understand and continually learn about the mechanics and healing power of the human body keeps him and his entire team on the forefront of therapeutic care for their patients at RehabAuthority.
A Texas native, Kevin graduated from the College of Idaho, completed his Master of Physical Therapy degree at Mount St. Mary’s College and earned his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Idaho State University. His first professional move was to found RehabAuthority with a purpose to “Solve Back and Neck Problems!”
Since that beginning in 1999, RehabAuthority has grown its reach to include offices throughout Idaho.
Kevin loves helping people feel good again. But even more, loves his beautiful and talented wife, Leslie, a wonderful mother and professional opera singer. They are the proud parents of two children.

Chuck Riddle II PT, DPT, Cert. MDT
To Chuck Riddle, life is an adventure to be explored! Growing up as an active youth in Blackfoot, he was always on the run, competing in high school track and cross country. He also participated and competed in choir, giving voice to his joy for life. When he headed for college at Idaho State University in Pocatello he took his love for running and singing with him, continuing to compete and participate in track, cross country and choir.
Knowing the joy that came to him from being able to physically engage in life, Chuck wanted to share that joy with others in helping them enjoy life without being distracted by the physical limitations that can be caused by accident, injury or disease. This desire gave him his life’s work as he channeled his natural exuberance by pursuing a doctorate degree from Idaho State University in Physical Therapy.
Chuck still enjoys running and skiing, but has added wakeboarding to his physical lifestyle. His greatest joy comes from his wife Tami and children. But his greatest professional satisfaction comes as he sees his patients regain and improve their physical strength and mobility and helps them “Feel Good Again!”
