What Patients Have to Say

Cares deeply

Rick’s knowledge and skill were evident in working with my hand, but he also cared about what I was going through at the time. He is an excellent listener who cares about you as a person.

Mary H.

Kind and compassionate

I had seen 4 other hand therapist over a four-year period, but once I found Rick I stayed with him. Rick was always very kind and compassionate about my hand and trying to get as much function back as possible. He made custom fit braces for my hand and wrist, and I watched others that he worked with come over to learn from him. I would highly recommend him to everybody..

Val B.

Best care ever

The best people and the best care I've received for rehabilitation of my hand/wrist. I've been to other Occup.Therapy providers and quit them because of no progress. This office is awesome and my wrist & hand are better than ever.
