As a clinician with more than 4 years of experience in the field, Maleah specializes in pediatric orthotics for a variety of neuromuscular and orthopedic diagnoses including cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, cranial remolding for infants with plagiocephaly, and upper and lower extremity prosthetics.
Maleah is passionate and committed to providing high-quality patient-centered care. She enjoys being able to use her knowledge and experience in the field to work with patients and their families to help them reach their mobility goals. She finds it both motivating and exciting to see patients overcome barriers and reach their highest potential.
