No. C4-91-479.

474 N.W.2d 446 (1991)

Linda RADEMACHER, Appellant, v. Chris P. TOUNTAS, M.D., Defendant, Minnesota Hand Rehabilitation, Inc., et al., Respondents, Michelle Reiner, Respondent.

Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

Review Granted December 9, 1991.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Marcy S. Wallace, Charlotte M. Reed, McNulty & Wallace, St. Paul, for Linda Rademacher.

Patrick H. O'Neill, Jr., Robert Mahoney, Geraghty, O'Loughlin, & Kenney, St. Paul, for Minnesota Hand Rehabilitation, Inc., et al.

Mark J. Condon, Chadwick, Johnson & Condon, Minneapolis, for Michelle Reiner.

Considered and decided by CRIPPEN, P.J., and SHORT and LOMMEN, JJ.


OPINION

CRIPPEN, Judge.

The trial court dismissed appellant's medical malpractice action against respondents, an occupational therapy provider and its occupational therapist employees. The court applied the two-year statute of limitations for actions brought against health care professionals. Because we conclude that respondents are not health care professionals as defined in the two-year statute of limitations, we reverse and remand.
