About Dennis

I'm a Physical Therapist by profession, specializes in Home care setting. I've been a home care PT for more than 20 years now. I have the experience of taking care of patients in different ages, diagnoses and levels of functional impairment. I have a great sense of humor, and always wear a smile on my face. I believe that a beaming smile can brighten one's gloomy day even a person in agony. I have a lot of stories to share . I'm also a great listener, they too have stories to tell. I love to learn from elder adults , their wisdoms are pure and authentic. Being a caregiver/ Home health PT, I enjoy taking care of them, watching them do the exercises I designed for them, helping them get back to their functional independence. It's very rewarding to witness a patient being able to stand and walk on their own once again , after rehabilitation. I love to cook, I'm the master of my own family/s kitchen. I know a little or more of ball room dancing. I walk 2-3 miles almost every day. There's more about me, but let's talk about me over a cup of coffee or an aromatic jasmine tea, I bet you'll enjoy my warm company. Stay safe and healthy , stay covid -free.
