About

Mrs. Eggertsen has experience in occupational health with adults and children, but she has selected to focus on hand therapy. She enjoys connecting with and supporting patients as they regain independence to use their hand, wrist and elbow. One piece of advice Ms. Eggertsen gives to patients is “Take ownership of the rehabilitation process and don’t be afraid to ask questions.”

In her free time, Mrs. Eggertsen enjoys sewing, scrapbooking, rock climbing, and cooking a good meal to enjoy with friends and family. As so many of her hobbies and interests involve working with her hands, Mrs. Eggertsen understands the importance of regaining hand function in order to meaningfully engage in life.
