Janelle Smestad, Occupcational Therapist

Bio:

I grew up right here in Grantsburg and attended Grantsburg Schools from kindergarten through 12th grade. During my younger years I played softball and in Junior High and High school I played volleyball. I attended the College of St. Catherine (now known as University of St. Catherine) and received my Bachelor of Arts degrees in Occupational Therapy.

I have been working as an Occupational Therapist for almost 25 years. I enjoy working with patients of all ages and have a special interest in upper extremity injuries involving the elbow, wrist and hand.

Outside of work I enjoy flower gardening, watching my kids participate in sporting events, biking, hiking, boating and spending time with family.

Interesting Fact: I was born on Christmas Day in the same hospital that I currently work at.
