"I love the fact that Physical Therapy can truly help our patients gain greater access, independence, and enjoyment in both their daily functions and passions of life. PT allows these patients to achieve goals and return to activities that they maybe hadn't been able to do for some time. I also genuinely love meeting new people and learning their stories and insights."
