Johnny is an Occupational Therapist for Castleview Physical Therapy. Johnny sees patients in the hospital for inpatient treatment and outpatient treatment. His main focus of treatment is in hand, wrist and upper extremity rehabilitation.

Johnny graduated from the University of Utah in 2012 with a B.S. in human development before attending Occupational Therapy school at the University of Utah where he graduated in 2016. During my time in OT school, I was able to do a clinical at the University of Utah Orthopedic Hand specialty clinic. After graduating I have further pursued hand specialization by attending the Teton Hand Conference in Jackson, WY and most recently the American Society of Hand Therapy Conference in Dallas, TX. 

I specifically chose Occupational Therapy because of the increased focus on the hand and the upper extremity. The hand is an anatomically complex area of the body with a high level of importance for function and independence. I enjoy the challenge that the hand and upper extremity can present, along with restoring function to my patients.

In my free time I enjoy being active and living a healthy lifestyle. I ride motocross, downhill mountain bike, boat, wake surf, and I enjoy spending time with family and friends.
