Practice philosophy: I believe in allowing patients to have a say and role in directing their care. I provide education to allow patients to make informed decisions.
Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? I always knew I wanted to work in rehabilitation because I love seeing the progress people make and helping them get there.
What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? I have started meditation and mindfulness practices to reduce feelings of anxiety and worry. It has also helped with my chronic pain.
