Wow. I’ll copy & paste what I said earlier Amy was very kind & professional. She also helped me out a lot with movement in my hand. She taught me exercises that would make my hand stronger & was very gentle & informative. Jason [last name] is also great. Even if you have a few questions about your injury, this man is so kind & professional he will answer for you as best as he can. This particular office has been nothing but professional & great customer service. Thank you Amy!!! Thank you Dr. Jason !!!!! - [patient's last name]

Amy is knowledgeable, skillful, and kind. She treated me like a friend not as a patient and gave me good advice how to do exercise at home. She helped me recover from my broken wrist and fractured arm. Today, I can move my wrist, fingers, and arm normally. Thank you Amy. I am very grateful to have you as my Therapist.

OT Amy Young is a very knowledgeable, caring, friendly person. She greets me like we are good friends. I like her very much. I really want to be her friend if she is willing. She put in a lot of time and patience to teach and help me to recover from my wrist surgery. With lots of painful practice, today, I can move my fingers and hold fist just like the other good hand. Thanks Amy!

She explained what she needed to do and continuously ask if the fit was comfortable. She demonstrated putting it on & taking off and made sure I was comfortable in the brace & maneuvering in & out of it.

Amy is one outstanding OT. It feels genuine whenever she greets me upon each session scheduled: In return it gives me the validation needed to assure me that she is ready to work, learn, and hear more about how I’ve progressed since our last session. However, she takes her time with the explanation of exercises, demonstration to demonstration, and gives me really great tips on how improve my mobility in addition the exercises. On behalf of me and other clients, thank you for showing what compassion, quality of care, and selfless acts are all about.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
