While she has seen it all, her clinical specialties lie in feeding and swallowing disorders.

Jeff
Chief Maintenance Officer
Jeff is a licensed Realtor, but volunteers his time (and sanity) keeping our clinic in tip-top shape and renovating the clinic's ever-evolving expansions! This includes, building walls, laying floors, running electric, installing plumbing, piecing together plastic trees and working side-by-side with our director (aka his wife) to help make it all happen! If it looks good, stands straight or runs like it should, it probably has Jeff's stamp on it. And if it doesn't... he just hasn't gotten to it yet!
When he's not changing light fixtures out with a pair of nail clippers at 8:00 pm (yes, that really happened!), Jeff enjoys hanging out with his kids and leading his son's Boy Scout pack. He also manages to find time for his love of cooking and watching the Cleveland Brown's lose.
