Vanessa is an ABC-certified orthotist for Hanger Clinic in Rock Hill, South Carolina. She has 20 years of experience in O&P and more than a decade of experience in cranial care. She sees a wide and varied patient population, including infants with plagiocephaly, children with cerebral palsy, and adults with drop-foot and other injuries.
Vanessa loves O&P because she can help reduce her patients’ pain while enabling them to do more than before–walk farther, trip less when walking, or run faster and farther without getting tired. She loves working with cranial remolding patients and their families to solve an asymmetry.
When not at work, Vanessa loves biking, hiking and antiquing with her husband and 2 boys. They are always on an adventure!
