During the height of the 2015 measles outbreak, Rhett Krawitt could not get vaccinated because of his battle against leukemia. Chemotherapy had severely compromised his immune system. Now 12-year-old Rhett says, "that with this pandemic, I feel like people are going to get vaccinated because somebody they know is going to get sick or die from the virus."
Christine integrates several disciplines at once. TES, orthotics, taping, manual therapy, etc. with focused attack on whatever the issue. I've been around the pediatric physical therapy circuit of San Francisco and Marin and hands down C.E's outstanding dedication, skill, thoughtfulness and varied knowledge set her apart from the rest. Clearly a strength of Christine Egan (is her hands-on work).
Her calm, focused approach encouraged our daughter to go just beyond her level of comfort and really make progress.
