Marty Stanton, P.T., is Co-Owner of NorthSound Physical Therapy and a Physical Therapist since 1989. Marty was born in New Jersey and moved to Yakima, Washington in 1981. While attending Eastern Washington University, he was introduced to the profession of physical therapy the hard way, as a patient! Fortunately, while at EWU he also met his future wife, Diana and was married in 1987. In 1989 Marty graduated from EWU with a BS degree in Physical Therapy and a BA degree in Psychology. In 1994 Marty and Diana were blessed with the first of three children, Dustin. Twin boys, Bryce and Kyle, followed in 1997.

Marty is part of a very active family that enjoys boating, jet skiing, fishing, snow skiing, snowboarding and all sport activities. Their favorite family activity is spending weekends at their cabin on Lake Wenatchee. When not involved with “family time”, Marty often finds himself weight training, playing golf with his buddies or watching his favorite football teams (Seattle Seahawks and Oregon State Beavers).

Drake was born and raised in nearby Stanwood, WA. He attended Lakewood High School and had wanted to be a physical therapist since the age of 14 after watching his grandfather receive treatment here at NorthSound for a hip replacement. After high school, he earned his Bachelors of Exercise Science at Eastern Washington University. He then moved on to Touro University Nevada and earned his Doctorate of Physical Therapy. During his time there, he met his future wife, Katie, who is also a physical therapist, and they were married on 9/7/24. He has now returned home to help his community reach their therapeutic goals. In his time outside the clinic, Drake enjoys being active in any and all sports activities, especially snowboarding, pickleball, golf, and volleyball. In addition, he loves to go on hikes with his GSD, Enzo. His favorite sports teams are the Seattle Seahawks, Seattle Mariners, and the Oregon Ducks.
