Philosophy
“Working with patients one-on-one in their homes allows for highly effective physical therapy. I am able to learn so much about my patients and their unique challenges by seeing them in their home environment vs in a clinic setting. Treating those with dizziness and neurological impairments has been my passion for close to 20 years.”
