VNA is a lifesaver. Having the need for physical therapy at home was warranted and one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Kelly G quite simply is the BEST! She demonstrates compassion, experience, empathy and is so passionate about her job and her patients. After over 25 plus years of multiple therapists, Kelly is singlehanded number one!
