CRAZIEST INJURY YOU EVER TREATED:
I was seeing a young man who suffered a gunshot wound to the head while being mugged. He was lucky to be alive, but lost function of the right side of his body. After Months of Physical Therapy he was able to walk out the door without using an assistive device. Very rewarding.

TELL US THE INJURY/CONDITION YOU LIKE TREATING THE MOST:
I fell in love with Physical Therapy after suffering sports injuries and I love helping athletes of all kinds get back to their sport, but I also love to help people gain more independence. The cases where people are unable to walk, climb stairs or put on a shirt by themselves the 1st day they come in and are completely independent when they finish with Physical Therapy.
