Gulshan exhibited strong expertise in OT: able to catch up on my care, evaluate current state, offer on the spot advice and answers to my specific questions. I trust that if I had not been ready for discharge and instead needed more care, Gulshan would have been a great help.

Gulshan focused all of her attention on me and my care. Gulshan also developed a short term along with a long term care plan and goals for us to work on. She also was detailed in the exercises She wanted me to perform. She also watched and corrected me to make sure they were being done properly. Gulshan also made sure I had printouts and everything I needed to get started at home. Gulshan is GRRRRREAT!

She is truly amazing!! I have made so much progress that it's like night and day. She is the easiest to talk to and makes the "torture" sessions fun. If anyone is injured and wants to learn to get back to normal she is the best in the country.

Since my finger injury, I've worked with a couple of other OTs at a different Northwestern location, and none have come close to Gulshan. She's incredibly knowledgeable, communicates everything clearly, and brings such warmth and care to every session. I feel genuinely lucky to have her as my OT. Northwestern is fortunate to have someone like her on their team she truly goes above and beyond.
