“I feel every person is an individual with lifestyles, jobs and hobbies that are different from everyone else; therefore, it is essential for me to develop an individualized treatment plan based on your specific needs and your goals. I put a priority on educating the patient about his/her condition in order to obtain the best outcome from their experience with physical therapy.”
