What Makes Vital Care Rehabilitation, LLC so Different?
We are a husband and wife owned and operated clinic. At Vital Care we focus on individualized care and treat our patients like family. We do work closely with your physician but most importantly we work independent of him/her. While we are not owned or affiliated with any orthopedic or physicians office we do have a “Governing Body”, which includes a Physician, Physical Therapist, Social Worker and Administrator which allows us to keep our setting small and intimate so you do not get lost in the crowd. Every patients plan of care is reviewed by our governing body thus giving our patients greater opportunity for success.
