With my experience Ashley Kastl is the biggest asset at Palm Valley Acute. She returns calls immediately, listens to needs, and gets things done. She is an absolute expert in 5 star customer service!!!!

This review is based off of the amazing care from my Casemanager Crystal, nurses Seery, Toni, and Kelly. The entire PT and OT was also amazing and very patient. Tyler, Mark (pulmonary management) and the NP from pulmonary as well. Crystal has been the best. She is the reason I came back a second time. Hands down if you are looking for a rehab or a place to send your loved one..ask to connect with Crystal in casemanagement.
