Hearn studied Health Sciences at Howard University, earning her Bachelor’s degree in 2006. She completed her Doctorate of Physical Therapy at the University of Miami, receiving the Clinical Excellence Award in 2010. Her training included rotations in pediatrics, outpatient orthopedic care, neurology rehabilitation, and acute inpatient care at several large regional hospitals in Texas and Florida.

She worked in acute care at two large Georgia Hospitals before transitioning to geriatric inpatient and outpatient care at a private health and rehabilitation center. She worked with several home health agencies and nursing homes before joining City of Hope in March 2015.

- Patient ratings
- Star ratings and comments are only available for medical, radiation and gynecologic oncologists. Gynecologic surgical offerings are not included at this time due to a different survey tool required to evaluate these services. CTCA uses a validated Press Ganey® survey, which captures patient experience feedback for the primary oncology services of chemotherapy and radiation therapy at our comprehensive care and research centers. Following industry best practice, star ratings and comments are only published for physicians with a minimum of 30 completed patient surveys.
