Susan is an ABC-certified orthotist for Hanger Clinic in West Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She has nearly two decades of experience, and loves that she still has something to learn from every individual she treats. Each patient has unique challenges, needs, and goals, and she works to create solutions that meet those needs. Susan treats almost exclusively pediatric patients, providing lower limb bracing solutions that she custom-adjusts, scoliosis bracing solutions, and cranial remolding orthoses.
Susan understands that many families come in feeling overwhelmed and scared about the treatment their child needs, and she excels at putting new patients at ease and letting them know that she will be there for the entire journey. She enjoys getting to know patients and their families over the span of care, especially for infant cranial asymmetry patients.
Outside of the office, Susan spends time watching her three children swim competitively and her husband compete in triathlons. She and her family enjoy spending time outside, camping, boating, and traveling.
