“This place is a very nice place to go if you need rehab. I have family that has been there and we had went for a visit. Very clean also has maintained bathrooms. I do suggest that if you tend to get hot. Make sure you have something you can wear that cooler because it tends to be very warm here.”

★★★★★Michelle Dowling · 2025-12-22 · via Google

“The outpatient physical therapy department is the best, in my opinion. Through the years when I've needed therapy I always choose to go there. Therapists are A+ and other staff are very courteous, friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.”

★Albert · 2026-05-03 · via Google

“Bill Cooke was unsupportive and outright dismissive at times. Expected more from a healthcare professional.”
