Katie’s Patient Philosophy:
I individualize treatment for each patient based on their values and goals in order to help them get back to doing what they love.
Katie has been really helpful! She’s encouraging, and good at challenging somewhat to make progress, yet sensitive enough so it’s not too stressful. She inspired me to want to work through to achieve better outcomes.
Very nice and very considerate
