Summary
- As a Pediatric Physiatrist (PM&R, Peds Rehab Medicine), I work with the great team at Duke’s Cerebral Palsy and Related Conditions (CPRC) clinic to help patients broaden their therapeutic and functional goals. My clinical focus is spasticity management including botulinum toxin injections [Botox®, Xeomin®, Dysport®, etc], therapy plan coordination, upper and lower limb bracing, and the durable medical equipment (DME) ordering processes.
