“I’ve been going to Maggie for over a year for a wrist injury, including 6 months of post-surgery rehab, and she’s been amazing. She’s thoughtful, kind, and incredibly attentive. What really stands out is she’s not just going through the motions: she listens, keeps close track of my progress, and switches up exercises and treatment as I improve (which I've found to be surprisingly rare in OT). I’ve worked with various PTs and OTs before (for this wrist injury, as well as other injuries), and Maggie is hands-down the best I’ve ever gone to. If you’ve got any kind of arm, hand, or wrist injury, just go see Maggie.”

My practitioner was fantastic. She was kind and very knowledgeable. She made me a splint in absolutely no time and it healed my hand within a week. Highly recommend !
I’ve been going to Maggie for over a year for a wrist injury, including 6 months of post-surgery rehab, and she’s been amazing. She’s thoughtful, kind, and incredibly attentive. What really stands out is she’s not just going through the motions: she listens, keeps close track of my progress, and switches up exercises and treatment as I improve (which I've found to be surprisingly rare in OT). I’ve worked with various PTs and OTs before (for this wrist injury, as well as other injuries), and Maggie is hands-down the best I’ve ever gone to. If you’ve got any kind of arm, hand, or wrist injury, just go see Maggie.
Maggie took a lot of time and care to assess my issue and went above and beyond to understand all of my concerns. She was very thorough in watching me practice my exercises to ensure I get the best results. Additionally, the office is absolutely gorgeous and drenched in natural light - an added bonus to my experience.
Maggie is a great OT and I enjoy going to my appt..she listens to my concerns and makes me feel very at ease. I'd highly recommend her!
I had pain in my right hand for weeks and I didn’t know why. I was progressively getting worse. I finally made an appointment and I’m so happy I did. Maggie was amazing. After a few questions and quick examination, she determined that the pain was caused from maladaptive wrist motion. She quickly made me a splint on the spot and after wearing it for two weeks, the pain is gone!!! I highly recommend Maggie. She was friendly, professional and very thorough.
Maggie has a very personable demeanor. She often works with more than one client at a time, but I never once felt like her attention to each of us was limited. The vibe she creates always felt casual and inclusive. Very positive experience.
Maggie is Incredible! I started seeing her after shoulder surgery (slap repair + remplisage). She showed so much care throughout my recovery, coming to every session with empathy. She is diligent and easily built my trust. Every session she came prepared with exercises, stretch, and massage to progress my recovery. After just a few months, I am back to my normal exercise routine. From pushups to burpees, I can do it all. The best part is that I don’t have pain, and I feel a new sense of stability with my shoulder. I wouldn’t be back to it without Maggie leading my recovery. Ortho surgery is both a physical and mental battle, and Maggie helped guide me through every step. Highly recommend working with Maggie!
I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care I received from Maggie, an extraordinary Occupational Therapist. Her ability to actively listen and truly understand my specific needs was truly remarkable. She possesses a unique ability to adapt her treatment approach, tailoring it to my individual requirements. Maggie's deep knowledge of lymphatic, nerve, shoulder, and hand anatomy was instrumental in my recovery. Her expertise allowed her to identify the root causes of my issues and develop a targeted treatment plan. I am truly amazed by the significant improvement I have experienced under her guidance. I wholeheartedly recommend Maggie to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable, and effective Occupational Therapist.
Maggie has been my therapist since October 2023. She has a wonderful personality and is very easy to communicate with… She’s helped me physically in so many ways… She’s amazing at what she does and I would recommend her to anyone that needs physical care…
Maggie was wonderful and helped me get back to work pain free. She was always attentive to my needs and considerate of how my injury was affecting me not just physically, but emotionally as well. She had great bedside manner and was so knowledgeable, helping me truly understand my injury. I wouldn’t have been able to return to work without her! Thank you Maggie!
I have been seeing Maggie for nearly a year now for ongoing nerve pain and repetitive stress injuries and she has been incredibly supportive, flexible, and thoughtful in our care plan and all our interactions. With regard to my health, I feel seen, heard, and significantly better equipped to address my health issues. I recommend Maggie to anyone who will listen!
Maggie is awesome and helped my recovery from shoulder surgery very quick. Maggie is very attentive, caring, and very knowledgeable. She has helped me get back to baseball in just 4 months post op! It was all credit to her helping me every step of the way. If I had to do it all over again, I would pick Maggie again, 100%!
Having shoulder surgery is always tough but Maggie made the rehab process easy and fun! She is very careful and wonderful to work with. She makes sure that you are progressing every week, and every visit. I highly recommend any one to visit her!
