“I have been a physical therapist for 8 years and have thoroughly enjoyed working with my patients. Helping someone get out of pain and back to the things they love quickly is what makes me excited to be a physical therapist. I consider it one of the greatest privileges of my life. I am honored to be able to serve my patients.
