He then went on to physical therapy school and graduated with honors from Columbia University in New York with a Master's of Science in Physical Therapy in 1998. Since graduating, Seth has worked with several different patient populations, but has focused the majority of his time in orthopedics and sports. He completed his transitional Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2009 from Arizona Health Science’s AT Still University. Seth has completed extensive continuing education coursework and training and has received the Functional Orthopedic Certification from the Institute of Physical Art in 2005, as well as their Certification in Functional Manual Therapy in 2006.

He has done guest lecturing in orthopedics, joint mobilizations, stabilization training, and PNF techniques at several universities, including as an adjunct faculty member in Marymount University's Physical Therapy Program. He began teaching continuing education courses to physical therapists with the IPA in 2006 and is now a primary faculty member for the CFS and PNF 1 courses and is a secondary instructor for FMLQ and the Kinetic Shoulder Complex courses. He is the Clinic Director for Inova's Prosperity physical therapy location. 

Seth is certified in Sportsmetrics for injury prevention, trigger point dry needling, and Blood Flow Restriction therapy.
