About Anna Coopersmith
Anna is an honors graduate from Miami University of Ohio with a degree in Zoology. She received her master’s degree in Occupational Therapy in 2002 from San Jose State.

She became credentialed as a Certified Hand Therapist in 2014.
Prior to working at SRO, Anna worked for Santa Rosa Memorial hospital in their outpatient hand therapy clinic, working with a wide range of upper extremity cases. Anna enjoys the profession because she loves seeing people regain function and return to the daily activities that they love.
