Como é que abordas os cuidados?

I like to establish a strong rapport with my patients, obtaining as much information about their goals and what it is that will improve their quality of life. I spend a lot of time educating my patient on what their rehabilitation process might be, and how we can achieve their goals together.

O que o inspirou a seguir uma carreira na área da saúde e a escolher a sua especialidade?

I always knew I wanted to do something in healthcare growing up. I participated in athletics throughout high school and unfortunately suffered a knee injury. I was referred to physical therapy and my therapist was great. I ended up shadowing at the clinic and being a volunteer aide for them. I just really loved the idea of being able to help individuals return to sports, hobbies, and improve their overall function and health.

Por que razão decidiste juntar-te à Sturdy Health?

I grew up in this community and knew I wanted to be back in the area once I started practicing. I feel that I am able to give back to those that have impacted my life. It’s great to see familiar faces and make connections with patients. I really enjoy working collaboratively, both in the hospital and in the outpatient practices, with other health care providers to optimize my patients care.

Quais são os teus interesses pessoais?

I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. We are always outdoors and especially love traveling down to the Cape in the warmer months.
