How we work
Out here, people don't sit still. Neither does our rehab.
Our patients are roughnecks and ranchers, teachers and truck drivers, grandmothers who run the church kitchen and grandfathers who still check their own pump jacks. After a hip, a knee, a heart attack or a bad fall, they want one thing: to get back to it. So we built a rehab center around that.
Every patient gets a private suite, two sessions of therapy a day and a discharge date set in the first forty-eight hours. Our gym has a full apartment, a pickup truck cab, a set of real porch steps and a 92-degree pool. We measure progress every week and post it where you can see it.

Sample family reviews
Patients and families
Thirty years on rigs, then a new hip at 62. They had me climbing into a truck cab in week one. I was back at my desk job in five weeks and back fishing in six.
The scoreboard in Dad's room made all the difference. He's competitive. He wanted to beat last week's number.
After my heart attack I was scared to walk to the mailbox. They took me there, three times, with a nurse watching my monitor. Then I wasn't scared.
Private room, private shower, two sessions a day. I didn't know rehab could be like this.
Mom lost her leg to diabetes. The prosthetic training here got her walking to church again. The whole congregation stood up when she came in.
They called every Friday with the numbers. We were in Houston and still knew exactly how she was doing.
