Describe the essence of what you do in your role at One Accord PT?

The essence of my role at One Accord PT is in facilitating learning and growth in both patients and staff members.  As a therapist I feel it is important to hear my patient’s story/experience, ask follow-up questions for clarity, perform a thorough physical examination and finally provide solutions that result in a successful outcome for the patient (resolution of pain, improved range of motion, improved strength, increased knowledge of their condition and access to supporting materials/tools).  As a clinical mentor in A.T.STILL University’s orthopedic residency program, I spend 4 days a week working with our clinical experts on honing their critical thinking and decision-making skills so that our patient’s at OAPT receive the best possible care and service.
