As I grow older, I understand the importance of health and the ability to perform daily tasks. Many of us take this vital ability for granted before an injury occurs. My duty is to collaborate with patients, in order to create functional and personalized goals to regain this ability and improve quality of life. I utilize evidence-based techniques during my treatments that increase the chance of meeting such patient goals. I create an affable environment that will allow for fluid communication and the acknowledgment of patient concerns. Ultimately, I work with the patient to adapt my treatment and create an effective and timely plan of care.
