¿Cómo enfocas la atención sanitaria?
I approach every case with a desire to understand a patient’s full medical history and try to come up with the best treatment plan for that specific case. No two patients are the same, nor should their treatments be. People living with lymphedema or cancer have very specific problems and needs, and I am happy to be able to provide relief and help each patient that walks into my office.
I have always had a love for the sciences as well as a desire to help others. Physical Therapy seemed a perfect fit for both of my interests. I became interested in lymphedema and cancer rehabilitation once exposed to it in my first job setting with other skilled and experienced therapists.
I am an Attleboro resident myself and have always believed that community hospitals have a benefit over the larger hospitals in individualized and personalized care. The lymphedema therapist role became available while I was working per diem as a staff physical therapist, and I jumped at the opportunity to be able to help those in my community.
I am an avid gardener and love working outdoors. I have two children who both play hockey, so when I am not at work, I am the team manager as well!
