Rehab Access was founded in 1999 with a vision of providing patients with the best PT care possible and a commitment to exceptional customer service. With our philosophy of providing hands-on care and one-on-one attention, we are able to achieve excellent results with our patients.
Our physical therapists are highly trained and have obtained some of the highest certifications in the physical therapy field. As a physical therapist, there is no greater satisfaction than helping to improve a patient’s quality of life, and our therapists enjoy doing so. That’s why they’re committed to listening to your problems, needs and goals so they can create a personalized treatment plan for you, treating you with dignity and respect, and working to achieve the best possible results for you.
