Dr. Stephanie is fulfilling her dream of helping her patients perform at their best the same way her physical therapists supported her as a young track athlete. A standout sprinter in the area, Dr. Stephanie earned her bachelor's degree at Wright State University where she found herself battling back from multiple injuries to maintain her status as a top contender for the team, still holding a 400 meter time that ranks top 5 in the history of Raider track.
Dr. Stephanie went on to earn her Masters of Physical Therapy from The Ohio State University. Then after practicing for a decade, she returned to school to graduate with her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Arcadia University. With a passion for education, she has spent a significant amount of time developing in conjunction with local orthopedic surgeons a Total Joint Replacement education class and coordinating the continuum of care post-surgery.
Although Dr. Stephanie has always specialized in Orthopedics, she has practiced in every setting in her 16 years in the field, brining with her a wide array of crossover experience with complex and unique patient scenarios. She holds specialty certifications in Dry Needling as well as Sportsmetrics, a top-rated ACL prevention program scientifically proven to decrease ligamentous injuries in athletes.
Dr. Stephanie continues to enjoy running when she is not watching her 8 kids play their own sports.
