Shepherd Center news portal (Patient Testimonial)

"The physical and occupational therapists, psychiatrists, and nurses are outstanding in their field. I have nothing bad to say regarding them... But the techs are dangerously under trained."

Physiofinder review

"The doctors are fine but the nurses' line is not the best. #1 they do not seem very knowledgeable or friendly and #2 it is only available 9am - 3pm."
