ABOUT US
Dr. Robert Pauline, DPT, OCS and wife Katie Pauline
I am a home grown Central Valley guy and my wife was raised here too. I am a so blessed to have been married to my sweetheart, Katie, for 22 years now. We have been blessed with 5 wonderful children.
I graduated from Clovis High School in 1997 and completed my Masters Degree in Physical Therapy in 2007 at CSU Fresno. After practicing for 7 years I decided to go back to school to get my doctorate degree. I completed an additional 18 months of rigorous training to complete my doctorate degree with an emphasis in orthopedics. Katie and I decided to open our own practice in August of 2014. She is an incredible behind the scenes support to the practice. I couldn’t do it without her. I love what I do and enjoy going to work every day.
I am motivated and strengthened every day by my loving family and my faith.

The heart behind the practice: Our Why
I am a home grown Central Valley guy and my wife was raised here too. I am a so blessed to have been married to my sweetheart, Katie, for 23 years now. We have been blessed with 5 wonderful children. I graduated from Clovis High School in 1997, Go Cougars! I completed my Masters Degree in Physical Therapy in 2007 at CSU Fresno, Go Dogs! After practicing for 7 years I decided to go back to school to get my doctorate degree.

Katie and I decided to open our own practice in August of 2014. She is an incredible behind the scenes support to the practice. I couldn’t do it without her. I love what I do and enjoy going to work every day and recognize that it wouldn’t be possible without her.
I am motivated and strengthened every day by my loving family and my faith.
My deepest gratitude to the amazing staff at RPPT past and present who’ve helped build this practice with skill, compassion, and dedication. To Ryan and Nick, who stood with me on day one, I will always be grateful.
To my loving parents, generous grandparents, and amazing siblings you’ve surrounded me with nothing but kindness and strength. Uncle Bob, thank you for planting the seeds of compassion. Our hearts are one.
To my sweetheart Katie, and our beautiful children thank you for the quiet sacrifices that have allowed me to pursue a dream I didn’t even know I had. You are my greatest work, my enduring joy, and my bright hope.
And to my Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ thank you for your grace, healing, and enabling power that sustains me daily. I am yours, always.
