Kelly
When did you know you were going to be a healthcare provider? (or why did you select a career in healthcare?)
I always knew I wanted to be in medicine in some capacity even as a young person. I wanted to help people feel better and I was always very intrigued by the science of medicine.
How would you describe your approach to patient care?
I believe in treating patients with empathy and respect and hopefully always making them feel that we care about them.
How would you describe IHTSC to patients? Why should they know?
IHTSC is a wonderful place to work. Every person takes time and provides compassion to their patients. I would highly recommend anyone with an upper extremity problem to come to IHTSC for their care.
