What do you want patients to know about your approach to care?
I work hard to make sure that my room is a place that patients look forward to being in. I know that pelvic floor care is not always the most fun, so I try to bring humor, joy and personal connection into my sessions. My favorite appointments feel like hanging out with a friend.
What do you hope every patient feels when they walk out of an appointment with you?
Heard, seen, and supported.
If a patient were nervous about their first appointment with you, what would you want them to know?
You’re in charge in this room! My job is to help guide you, but at the end of the day you’re the captain here. You got this!
What are some things people are surprised to learn about you?
I don’t like oranges, I can't whistle, and I’m weirdly pretty good at geography.
What made you want to work at Lady Bird PT?
I was ready to work in a place that felt like a home more than a job. I wanted to be making a difference and this clinic seemed like a COOL place to be (spoiler: it is).
Three words to describe Liz:
Funny, smart, emotionally intelligent.
“I truly cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Dr. Liz. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for in a way that made such a difference during my postpartum recovery. What really stood out to me was how personalized her care was. She didn’t just give generic advice — she took the time to understand what I was experiencing and helped me find realistic, practical ways to incorporate therapy into my day-to-day life, which as a busy new mom meant so much. Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable, Liz brings such a warm, positive energy that makes every appointment feel comfortable and encouraging. I’m so grateful!” -LT
