get to know me
I chose my specialty because...
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation was a natural fit for me. Before I became a doctor, I had the opportunity to be a camp counselor at a camp for children with special needs and to coach a junior wheelchair sports team. I worked closely with families of children with special needs to advocate for their medical and educational needs. In those roles as a camp counselor, a coach, an advocate and a friend, I became aware of PM&R as a specialty and how important it is to have a physician dedicated to the care of children with special health care needs. I truly enjoy helping children of all abilities reach their maximum potential.
I chose to work at Dayton Children's because...
My family is one of the most important things to me. When I came to Dayton Children’s I immediately knew that my family and my children would be important to them too. I am proud to be a part of the Dayton Children’s team, to care for other families in the community in which I live.
Dayton Children's is special because...
Dayton Children’s strives to provide the best and most comprehensive care for the children and families in and around the greater Dayton area.

My son sees quite a few doctors at Childrens and Dr. Mowery by far is one of my favorites. Her bed side manner is superb. She's respectful, thoughtful, understanding, and supportive. The list could go on honestly. She goes above and far beyond for her patients from what I've experienced having her be on my child's medical team!
We love Dr. Mowery and her staff. Always caring, always professional and expert at their care!
Dr. Mawery is always very courteous and always very attentive to what we have to say and discuss any pain issues.
Dr Mowery was awesome and vital to my child's recovery. She was able to help us transition to outpatient care and I was very confident in her expertise.
