About

Elizabeth A. Wilson, OTR provides occupational therapy in Chula Vista's Third Avenue medical corridor at 525 Third Avenue, specializing in upper extremity orthopedic rehabilitation and lymphedema management. The practice's treatment of developmental and behavioral conditions in pediatric patients intersects with the mental-health programming at WishWell Counseling and Empowerment Center for Kids, supporting multidisciplinary care plans for children requiring both occupational and behavioral therapy. Credentialed through the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy and holding membership in the American Occupational Therapy Association, the practice draws on a Post-Professional OTD from Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions and a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences. The clinical scope spans hand therapy, post-surgical upper extremity rehabilitation, lymphedema compression and wrapping protocols, and adaptive daily-living skill development across both adult and pediatric populations. Geriatric patients transitioning from hospital to home-based care coordinate occupational therapy sessions with home-health providers such as Absolute Senior Care, maintaining functional independence through supervised ADL training. Treatment protocols incorporate manual edema mobilization, custom thermoplastic splint fabrication, desensitization programs for peripheral nerve injuries, and graded strengthening using calibrated Jamar dynamometry for grip-force measurement.
