Alyson Dutton, OTR/L, CHT

I believe that patients’ trust is gained by educating them about their diagnosis and listening to any concerns they may have, addressing them to the best of my ability. Having a personal connection with a therapist they see weekly or more can be a bonus; helping them to enjoy the therapy process.

I had been the only hand therapist in a private practice for 22 years and longed to be part of a collaborative team again and to work more directly with hand surgeons. A colleague from OT school recommended it as a great place to work where quality care is still the highest priority and that there is enough support and time allowed to provide it.
