Biography

Patty grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, graduating from the Ohio State University with a B.S. from the school of Allied Medicine in Physical therapy.

After practicing physical therapy in a variety of settings throughout her career, she developed an interest in lymphedema management. Patty obtained her certification in Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT) in 2009 from the Academy of Lymphatic Studies.

Patty has worked at Bon Secours St. Francis Medical Center Lymphedema Clinic since 2009, treating patients who suffer from primary and secondary lymphedema, and rehabilitating cancer survivors. Managing head and neck lymphedema is a specific area of interest to her. She appreciates the time she is able to spend with patients, providing one on one treatment, as well the opportunity to teach patients and their families tools needed to attain successful home management of lymphedema.

Being the mother of three college athletes, she and her husband enjoy attending their daughters’ swim meets. Patty loves watching college football, especially when the Ohio State Buckeyes are winning!
