Danny Zander
Biography
Danny is an occupational therapist with over 15 years experience in the inpatient and outpatient settings. Danny has specialized in vision rehabilitation since 2009.
She is an ImPACT Trained Occupational Therapist (ITOT) for concussion management and a licensed massage therapist (LMT). She has over 20 years of manual therapy experience. Danny successfully operated a massage therapy private practice before pursuing her master’s degree in occupational therapy and continues to perform manual therapy in the occupational therapy setting.
Danny’s practice, Sisu Vision Rehabilitation, is in Houston, Texas. She provides holistic occupational therapy services that promote independence, happiness, and quality of life for clients experiencing changes in visual function either from neurological vision loss or age-related vision loss. Sisu is one of only a handful of clinics focused on vision and neuro occupational therapy available in the greater Houston region.
The Backstory
Danny worked in the Texas Medical Center for the majority of her career. She was accustomed to the standard EHR programs popular in large hospital systems. While effective for large hospital systems, the EHR programs were not effective for specialty services such as vision rehab and were difficult to customize to her specific occupational therapy needs.
Danny recognized a need for occupational therapy vision rehabilitation beyond the Texas Medical Center and transitioned to private practice at the beginning of 2020. She knew from her professional experience that she would be able to manage her practice more efficiently with an EMR system that catered to a specialty therapy service. Specific features included a user friendly EMR for the non-tech savvy therapist, fully customizable forms, a document upload feature, and an all-in-one system which included scheduling, billing, documentation, and patient communication. She started exploring different platforms in late 2019 before opening her practice.
