We asked David Bergstrom, PT some rapid fire questions to get to know him better!
What do you do to relax? Get outside as much as possible. I love to mountain bike, play tennis, trail run, ski, spend time with my two dogs and wife Paige, and enjoy a beer with friends.
What’s one hobby you’d love to get into? I can’t choose just one, so I’ll offer two: rock climbing and river kayaking.
If you could teleport, where would you go and why? The All England Club in London to watch Wimbledon.
What is one thing you still have from your childhood? My first tennis racquet.
What is your favorite dessert? Espresso ice cream.
Do you have any hidden talents? Unsure if this qualifies as a talent, but one thing many people don’t know about me is that I am a good cook. I spent my childhood learning from the best, my dad, who was a chef by trade.
