Happy Birthday Sue Montgomery!!
Joined Rotary 09/2025.
Born and raised in a small town in northern Illinois but landed on the shores of Grand Lake in 2013 with her husband and daughter. Since joining this beautiful community, she has particularly enjoyed getting involved with the community through Rotary and volunteering with the Make-a-Wish foundation. Since graduating from PT school at the University of Texas-Southwestern Medical Center of Dallas in 2006, she chose to extend my knowledge base by specializing in Vestibular and Pelvic Health. She strives to treat her patients as a whole person and be their biggest advocate for reaching their goals and living their best life. Her husband is a talented finish carpenter and her daughter is very active in school related activities. They enjoy hiking and camping anywhere that has a good view.
