Hi! My name is Veronica, and I am one of the physical therapists at Madden and Gilbert Physical Therapy in Shrewsbury. I grew up in the small town of Mercersburg, Pennsylvania but completed my college education in Annville, Pennsylvania. I attended Lebanon Valley College where I received both my Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science and my Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree.

Growing up, I found myself looking for anything to keep me busy and active, which led me to playing multiple sports, including soccer and basketball, as well as marching in my school’s drumline. With all this activity, I found myself surrounded by others constantly getting hurt and having to go through the rehabilitation process. I was always amazed by how well they recovered from their injuries with the help of physical therapy. I knew I always wanted to enter the medical field, and my desire to help others continue doing what they love led me to the PT field.

During my final clinical rotation of PT school at one of the Madden and Gilbert locations, I immediately fell in love with the work ethic, personal connections, and the manual, hands-on techniques that the company prioritized. I love the immediate response that manual therapy provides as well as the impact exercises can have in restoring function! I am so proud to be a part of the team in Shrewsbury, and look forward to helping this community reach their goals!

When I’m not at the clinic, I like to spend my time having game nights and spending time with my family and friends, keeping active by playing sports and working out, and trying local coffee shops.
