Meet our Sports Rehab Therapist

Storm Hoover, DPT

“My goal as a physical therapist at Clarke County Hospital is to help my patients see that movement is medicine and my hope is to help them build a positive relationship with exercise.”

Storm is a recent graduate from Des Moines University and a proud Hawkeye Alumnus. He has been at Clarke County Hospital for almost a year. Storm’s interest in physical therapy was sparked by a personal experience; a back injury in high school led him to physical therapy, which not only helped him recover but also got him back to playing sports. This experience alleviated his fears of being limited by his injury and inspired him to help others in the same way. 

Storm, his wife Paiton and their two miniature Dachshunds, Duke and Duchess, reside in Des Moines. In his free time, he enjoys lifting, watching football, cooking and skiing. Originally from Fulton, Illinois, a small town along the Mississippi River, Storm was drawn to Clarke County Hospital by the sense of community he felt during his visit and the positive interactions he had with patients.
