Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
I am patient-focused with a balance between manual work and exercise. 

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
Patients should be motivated and willing to participate in their home exercise program.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you’re not caring for patients?
I enjoy time with my children, exercising, boating/lake time in the summer and attending sporting events.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
I love helping people feel better and teaching them how to continue to care for themselves. It is very rewarding to watch patients progress and return to high-level, independent function.
