John Flint

PT, Clinic Manager

John graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy from the Houston Medical Center Campus, Texas Women’s University, in 1991. He has been practicing physical therapy in Texarkana and the surrounding communities for 33 years. John currently serves as lead therapist and clinic manager for Centre of Rehabilitation Excellence (CORE) Texarkana and as area manager for PrimeCare Home Health, covering Texarkana and North East Texas.

He carries the following certifications: MCNC-Master Dry Needling Certified, IASTM-Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization, CPT-Certified Personal Trainer, and KT-Kinesio Sport Taping. He has specialized in outpatient orthopedic care, spine and joint mobilization, with sub-specialties in hand therapy, sports medicine, ergonomics and job site analysis. He enjoys teaching and has previously served as adjunct faculty teaching anatomy and physiology for the University of Central Arkansas PTA program.

John has been married for 35 years and is inspired by his wonderful wife Kimberly and is proud of his four accomplished children who live in 4 different time zones. He has six grandchildren and counting.

“I enjoy participating in church and have been blessed to have the opportunity to travel the US and many foreign countries for missions and to visit my children and grandchildren.”

“I have many hobbies, from playing board games, working on and restoring cars, home remodeling, racket and paddle sports, fitness training, and pretty much anything that challenges me mentally and physically.”

“I still love what I do. Seeing people gain an understanding of injury and recovery and seeing them come out the other side with new confidence to keep doing what they are passionate about.”

I joined the CORE Texarkana team in January 2024. In August 2022, I received my Associate degree in Applied Science as a Physical Therapist Assistant at Cossatot Community College. My growing interests include geriatrics and orthopedics. I take pride in educating my patients on the human body and expanding my own knowledge. Outside work, I enjoy spending my free time with my two children, Emma and Elijah, on outdoor adventures and watching good movies.
