Licensed Acupuncturist and Physical Therapy Assistant

Since the beginning of 2000, I have been working privately as an acupuncturist in my own practice.  About a year ago I joined Dr. Flattery in his practice, and have continued to use acupuncture, but also use my physical therapy skills to assist Dr. Flattery with his patients.  After becoming a certified Phlebotomist, I also assist with IV therapy, and all other laboratory testing.

I attended Green River Community College in 1980, and received a degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant.  I specialized in geriatric rehabilitation for the first few years, and then became a traveling LPTA, and traveled around the U.S. on assignments.  In 1996, I attended the South West Acupuncture College in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and received a Master’s degree in Oriental Medicine.  I am nationally board certified, and a Diplomat in Oriental Medicine.

In my spare time, I enjoy learning to play the guitar, and making things out of wood.  I participate in duathlons in the summer, so I spend a fair amount of time running and biking.  My husband and our three dogs keep me busy the rest of the time with playing ball and hiking.
