I have been with the VNANNJ for about 4 years on and off. I have had changes in nursing over the years, yet they were ALL amazing!! My physical therapist, Jennifer Shaner, has consistently been treating me for 4 years with different injuries, surgeries etc. She has become part of the family and treats me the same! She has become an amazing friend over the years and even though I'm done for the moment, we keep in touch as our kids are relatively close in age. I highly recommend her to everyone who is in need of professional physical therapy and value that her expertise, professionalism, kindness and empathy will win ANYONE over within their first encounter. I'm going to miss her terribly, but I know with my illness, I'll probably be seeing her again in the future! I personally love her and really appreciate everything she's done professionally and personally over the years. If you are hesitant to have a therapist come to your house, don't. She's worth everything second that she's there and you'll never want another therapist again after having her!! Kudos to VNANNJ for hiring such amazing staff and will continue to refer other patients and friends to their company. Thank you!

The Visiting Nurses were great. My physical therapist was Jeff Bronzini. Jeff was excellent. The first day he came was on a Friday, and he saw I was having problems bending. He requested for someone to come over the weekend to help me. He pushed me, but not over the edge. He was prompt and caring.

The care I received from my physical therapist was outstanding. Caring, with a sense of humor, which I appreciated, he guided me through the first two weeks of my physical therapy. I was in capable hands. He made sure I did just enough physical therapy to help me but not overdo it. I quickly advanced. I highlighly recommend VNA to anyone who needs physical therapy.
