THIS COULD NEVER BE MORE TRUE THAN WITH MY CAREER PATH.

I started my physical therapy career in an inpatient hospital in Scranton, Pa. Moving to New York a few years later I had the opportunity to work for the New York public school system, Broadway musicals and orthopedic outpatient clinics. While the work was rewarding, I always felt like I could do more to serve my clients.

As I was searching for ways to provide a more comprehensive approach to practicing physical therapy I became overwhelmed with requests from clients to be seen in their home or office. This was an opportunity to provide not just convenience, but a different kind of practice. By adopting a “concierge” model, I could dedicate a full hour of one-on-one treatment to each and every client. Now I had ample time to evaluate, treat and re-evaluate. The concierge model allowed me the time to provide vital client education. My clients would now benefit from a comprehensive home education program.

As part of my commitment to my clients and my career, I am constantly engaging in continuing education. I have been lucky enough to learn directly from some of the best in the profession including Dr. David Butler, Dr. Lorimer Moseley, Dr. Adriaan Louw, Dr. Paul Hodges, NOI Group, The American Physical Therapy Association, Hospital for Special Surgery, and many more. I graduated from Misericordia University with my masters degree in Physical Therapy in 1997 and then graduated from the same university in 2014 with a Doctorate of Physical Therapy.

 I am the host of the podcast, Healthy, Wealthy, and Smart. The podcast provides up to date clinical information combined with business strategies from the best and brightest thought leaders in physical therapy, wellness and entrepreneurship. The show promotes the profession and provides a channel to get the most accurate information out there for both practicing physical therapists and everyday people.
