Biography

Cristina has been working in the outpatient orthopedic setting since graduating from the University of Illinois at Chicago’s Doctor of Physical Therapy program in 2006. She has been practicing in the Chicagoland area ever since, with a brief three-year stint working in occupational medicine in Boston, Massachusetts. While there, she completed a physical therapy orthopedic residency program and became a bard-certified orthopedic clinical specialist.

Cristina has extensive experience assisting patients in post-operative recovery, particularly from joint replacement and rotator cuff repair surgery. She focuses on a patient-centered approach, customizing each patient’s recovery program to accommodate his or her particular needs. Cristina enjoys educating patients and their family members in pre-operative expectations and the rehab process post-surgically. She is also a mentor in the IBJI orthopedic residency progam.

In her free time, Cristina enjoys spending time with her husband and two daughters bike riding, having picnics at the beach, and running. Cristina completed the Chicago Marathon several years ago, and she aspires to complete at least one more marathon in her lifetime.
