“My treatment philosophy is that people are more than their injury. By taking the time to learn about each person, how they were injured, and what their goals are, I work in partnership with my patients to find the right interventions to get them back to doing what they love. I strive to empower every patient to manage their health and mobility goals independently when away from the clinic. This is achieved through continual patient education and encouraging communication & feedback.”
