OUR FOUNDERS
Dr. Jeff L. Halford, DO
Jeff is a board certified physician and a Tulsa native. After suffering a major injury in his youth, he developed a special interest in caring for patients with physical impairments. He graduated with a B.S. Degree in Physiology & D.O. Degree from Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences. Dr. Halford completed his medical residency training at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, Texas. He has served as Medical Director of Rehabilitation at Saint Francis Hospital since 2008 caring for patients with various conditions such as spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries and strokes.
Dr. Theresa R. Fletcher-Leach, PT, DPT
Theresa is a physical therapist who has worked in Tulsa since 2011. She received her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. She has a Bachelor of Science in Health Studies degree from the University of Oklahoma. She has worked in three local hospitals and surgical centers in the acute care, outpatient, and inpatient rehabilitation settings. While working predominantly in inpatient rehab, she developed a passion for helping patients with neurological disorders and other debilitating conditions regain their independence and improve their overall health. Over the years she realized that many patients were not receiving adequate funding to pay for necessary equipment and were unable to pay for those expenses out of pocket, which motivated her to work with Dr. Jeff Halford to form this charity.
