We don’t post reviews often, but this one stopped us in our tracks.

Andy Taber, physical therapist and clinic director at our Green Bay East clinic, has a true gift for finding the real source of pain and treating it with skill, heart, and just the right amount of humor.

His high expectations and genuine care lift our whole team.
We’re grateful for a leader who continues to set the gold standard in PT.

So much of progress, whether in life or in physical or occupational therapy, starts with a leap of faith.
Walking through the door for that first appointment can be hard.
You might be unsure, hurting, or wondering if it will really help.

But that first step matters.
Each session builds on the last, and slowly, strength returns, confidence grows, and daily life feels easier again.
You don’t have to see the whole path to get better. You just have to take the next step.

Today, we honor Dr. King’s words by believing in progress, trusting the process, and moving forward together.
