Why did you become a Occupational Therapist? 

After my grandma had a terrible accident which required brain surgery, I was able to see how occupational therapy helped her return to independence. I always wanted to find a profession where I could have a positive impact on people. It is very rewarding to be able to help someone return to an activity they were doing prior to therapy, and regain their independence.

"The staff and clinicians are all very good. They answered all my questions, time spent with me was excellent and everyone showed great compassion."

"Everything is top notch! The expertise of the PTs and their caring attitude is exemplary. All the support staff are great!"

"I was very pleased with all of my care - pre op & post op. You did a wonderful job preparing me for surgery and getting me healed after."

"Excellent doesn't give the staff enough credit to how hard they work for their patient. All of the staff works very hard to give you extra help as each person needs."
