My Idea of Care

I believe that knowledge is power. I try to teach my patients about their injury and treatment so they gain knowledge and ownership of their recovery. Having control over your health is an important.

I also believe in the golden rule – to treat others as you would want to be treated.

Personal Interests

Corrine enjoys riding and working with her horses. She loves to cook, read and travel – but most of all loves to be with her family.
