Physical Therapist at South Shore University Hospital
Physical Therapist at South Shore University Hospital
I've recently completed my fourth and final clinical rotation from PT school. Throughout PT school I have volunteered with Empower SCI during surf day, Rock Steady, and Just for Kicks, I've earned my LSVT BIG certification and I've learned my passion for working with patients with neurological diagnosis. However, as a former athelete I still enjoy working with orthopethic patients. Throughout my clinical rotations I've had the change to use my LSVT BIG certification and have noticed great improvement in my patients, I've created a high intensity treadmill protocol for the clinic to continue to improve gait efficiency and mechanics in patients with chronic stroke symptoms and I've presented various in-services on PNF, statin induced myopathy, marijuana products and neurological diagnosis and transgender treatment in acute care settings. I'm looking forward to starting my career as a physical therapist.
