Centra: How Bad Posture Affects The Body

Thank you for the positive experience! “As each year closes it has been my habit to identify someone meaningful in my life and write them a note expressing my appreciation. In the past, it has been someone who has especially helped me or others or someone I have really enjoyed getting to know better. This year my note goes to Centra Rehabilitation Nationwide Drive for those reasons and many others. I started care there in August 2016 with Dr. Heather Brumfield and graduated on December 28, 2017 with Dr. Melanie Marks. It has been my pleasure to get to know them both and benefit from their expertise, compassion and encouragement. Their knowledge and ability to adapt when my body didn’t respond “by the book,” and willingness to try yet “one more thing” was amazing. They took the time to know me and helped me find balance between the benefits of rest and therapy and the demands of life. They saw me through numerous appointments, a very stubborn first rib, delays from two surgeries, insurance requirements, billing snafus and a few days when conversation was lost in frustration and pain. The last two years have been medically challenging and packed full of doctors’ appointments and as I “made the rounds,” Nationwide rehab staff were always professional, prompt knowledgeable, kind, personable and encouraging. So, thank you to Nationwide rehab for the positive difference you have made in my life; you are appreciated!” -Lynn P. Patient Spotlight
