Karleigh Nunez
OTD, OTR/L
Occupational Therapist
During my doctoral studies, my research focused on the care and treatment of medically complex infants and children. I have experience working in Pediatric Prescribed Extended Care (PPEC) settings and in inpatient rehabilitation in Houston, Texas, where I provided occupational therapy services to patients with a range of complex medical and developmental needs.
Conditions Karleigh Enjoys Treating
One of the biggest challenges I hope to help patients overcome is the loss of independence. Whether it’s a child learning new skills or an adult recovering from an injury or illness, my goal is to help each patient gain the confidence and abilities needed to participate more fully in their daily lives.
I am an Occupational Therapist who works with both children and adults!

Core Values:
My core values are kindness, authenticity, and dedication. I believe in meeting patients where they are, celebrating progress of all sizes, and building trusting relationships with the individuals and families I serve. My goal is to provide compassionate care that helps people gain confidence, independence, and success in their daily lives.

Outside the Clinic
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time on the water, whether that’s boating, relaxing by the lake, or enjoying a day at the beach. I also love traveling and exploring new places, as well as spending quality time with my husband, family, and friends.
