Our Therapy Team Members treat patients from birth to adulthood. Our pediatric specialists have experience with a variety of diagnoses and disabilities. Between them, our therapists have more than 40 years of clinical experience with children in a variety of settings. Those settings include school aged classroom, preschool classroom, home health, private practice, inpatient, and outpatient. These services are available with a referral from the child’s Primary Care Provider (PCP), regardless of the child’s other services. In some instances the child can be receiving educational services and still qualify for Occupational, Physical or Speech Therapy under the medical model of practice. Our therapists will communicate with other providers involved in the child’s care.
