Claire Rankin is an Occupational Therapist and Certified Hand Therapist with six years of experience and a passion for treating upper extremity injuries and conditions. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo and her Master of Science in Occupational Therapy from San José State University.
Claire is passionate about helping patients achieve their individual goals and return to the activities and passions that bring meaning to their lives. She values working closely with surgeons and the broader care team to provide patient-centered, evidence-based treatment and seamless continuity of care throughout each patient’s recovery journey. From shoulder to fingertip, splint fabrication to hands-on treatment, Claire enjoys the variety and individualized approach that upper extremity rehabilitation offers. She feels grateful for the opportunity to be part of each patient’s healing journey and to help them get back to doing what they love.
Outside of the clinic, Claire enjoys Pilates, hiking, and spending quality time with her husband and son.
HCA Healthcare is in contract negotiations with Anthem and Cigna. Some patients may have received letters stating that care at an HCA facility could become out of network beginning Dec. 1, 2026, for Anthem or Jan. 1, 2027, for Cigna if new agreements are not reached.
HCA has assured us they expect to resolve both negotiations before those dates. If you have a procedure scheduled at an HCA facility, please do not cancel it based solely on the letter. Contact your insurer to confirm your facility’s network status and benefits, and reach out to our scheduling team with questions. We are monitoring the situation and will help patients understand their options as updates become available.
We will honor existing appointments through 03/01/2026 without authorization. However, any planned or ongoing treatment may be delayed if authorization is not received (IE: MRI, Surgery, PT/OT).
Please contact your PCP as soon as possible to obtain an authorization if you wish to be seen today or to avoid delays in care.
