Meet The Founder
Dr. Marcy Crouch, PT, DPT, WCS, is a Board-Certified Women’s Health Physical Therapist with over 15 years of clinical experience and a passion for changing the way women are cared for—especially during pregnancy, postpartum, and throughout every stage of pelvic health.
After working in hospital systems, outpatient clinics, and alongside OBs and surgeons, Dr. Marcy saw a critical gap in care for women navigating some of the most vulnerable seasons of their lives.
She created Auburn Women’s PT & Wellness to fill that gap—with compassion, expertise, and a belief that healing begins when women feel seen, heard, and supported.
Known nationally for her work in birth injury prevention, pelvic floor recovery, and education, Dr. Marcy is also the founder of The Down There Doc, a TEDx speaker, and a go-to resource for women and providers alike.
