    Potential Unlocked: Parent Testimonials

    • Physical Therapy

      Our physical therapist caught things that our child's pediatrician didn't. She's thorough, kind, and just amazing as both a therapist and a person. I don't even want to think about what extra challenges our daughter would be facing now if we hadn't met our physical therapist when we did. She's a miracle worker, for sure.

      -Heather Honaker, ACCESS Parent

    • Physical Therapy

      My child loves physical therapy. Somehow, our therapist gets my child to work SO hard, and I can see her strength and agility improve. I am beyond please with her physical therapist.

      -ACCESS Parent

    • Speech, Occupational, and Physical Therapy

      Our son was born with a congenital heart defect, and he spent two months in the hospital fighting for his life. ACCESS has been so supportive of my son and family. He has received years of speech therapy for feeding and articulation, occupational therapy, and physical therapy. All of his therapists have helped him overcome obstacles and challenges during his early childhood development. Most of all, he has experienced guidance, encouragement, and love from ACCESS, and I am brought to tears to think about all they have done for him.
