Summary
Hard working and dedicated clinician who has the desire to provide quality care towards our patients. I have many years of experience in the field as a Rehab Technician and have had the pleasure of working with hundreds of patients over the years so I am not your ordinary newly licensed Physical Therapist Assistant. However, I still recognize that there is still much more to learn about the profession and I am driven to take any opportunity that I can to expand my skill set as a clinician. I treat all patients as if they were my own family and I make sure that their care takes priority over everything else. I am a reliable and dedicated coworker who you can always count on to be on time and provide the best care to our patients.
