Katherine is a ABC-certified prosthetist/orthotist in the San Diego, California area. She has always had a strong passion for patient care that began when she volunteered at her local hospital in high school. Especially with her extensive dance background, Katherine loves that O&P combines biomechanics and direct patient care, making it her ideal profession.
Katherine provides care for various diagnoses head to toe in both prosthetics and orthotics. She specializes in lower extremity prosthetics, cranial remolding orthosis, pediatric orthotics, and scoliosis. Overall, she loves working in the O&P field as she can see her patients progress and improve with each visit.
Outside of work, Katherine enjoys teaching dance, exploring new restaurants, spending time with her family, and enjoying the outdoors and beach.
