My coming to Vanderlinde Physical Therapy was due to a very unfortunate automobile accident. Yet the treatment I have received here has made me feel quite fortunate, at least in my choice of physical therapy. I want to thank you all for your kindness and for the skill with which I have been treated. When my husband and I go back to New Jersey this week, I will take with me fond memories of those of you at Vanderlinde PT that I have come to know during my therapy sessions. - M.P.
