"The concepts of active learning, self-reflection and collaboration are central to my philosophy of education and clinical care. In rehabilitation, we are privileged to develop long-term relationships with our patients. Our focus is on maintaining the highest level of function in the real world, as children with disabilities grow and develop. I feel responsible to my patients to train high-quality rehabilitation physicians who will care for them when they are adults and who will care for the next generation of children."

Dr. Massagli was the attending physician after our daughter sustained a gunshot would that left her paralyzed at the breast level. During the most trying and horrendous time Dr. Massagli and her team always kept us informed and helped our family to make the best choices for our daughters expeditious recovery. Thanks to Dr. Massagli and the rehabilitation team at children's our family left with the crucial tools to care for a medically complex child at home as well as in the community!
