RuthAnn Fanstone, Burns Therapy

RuthAnn Fanstone is an experienced physiotherapist who volunteers her skills with ASTI and the ASF’s as much as her free time permits. I caught up with her recently to reminisce about her visit to the ASF centre in Islamabad, where she travelled as part of the ASTI Physical Rehabilitation Team.
