A Community of Professionals
Many people have unsuccessful experiences with group physical therapy settings that don’t address their specific needs. I want to change that by promoting a community of physical therapists (as well as practitioners in other disciplines whom I have come to know and respect), and by educating the public about the benefits of physical therapy the way it was meant to be practiced—where patient care is the driver of treatment decisions.
