Testimonials
“I’ve met and worked with all three Doctors currently with Bloom and they are all amazing. Bloom is always the first place I recommend when a woman or child is having any type of pelvic floor issues!”
“She has a way about her that not only makes my daughter feel calm and empowered but she also makes me as a mother feel empowered she talks to me and not at me and has gone over everything with me and helped with any problems or concerns that I have had she is amazing and we are thankful for her!”
“She’s more than a physical therapist - she’s a true angel! If you ever need pelvic floor therapy or pediatric PT she’s your girl!! (I’ve been to her for both!!)”
“She has given me guidance and advice, and has helped me through all the stages of guilt, acceptance, and healing. She is extremely educated and has been my go-to person for every idea, exercise, and routine”
