My son was born with Spina Bifida 22 years ago.  We first met Stephanie at Children’s Memorial Hospital during his first week of life.  Through the years she not only provided excellent physical therapy to help him attain his maximum walking potential using his leg braces and arm crutches, but gave him encouragement and confidence to attain his goals.  Stephanie always has a positive attitude and is interested in my son as a whole person.  During challenging times, Stephanie delivered care with dedication, high work ethic, and determination along with a smile and kind encouraging words.  As a mom this is so important and I will always be grateful.
