They took the information and knew how old she was before the intake call. During the call the owner told me that the therapists are not trauma informed and that my daughter would need to attend sessions by herself so that they could be hippa compliant. I find it hard to believe that parents would drop off their 2.5 years old to an appointment. She said that since I practice attachment parenting that it would not be a good fit. I asked her what she thought attachment parenting was to her. I left the appointment feeling that I needed to convince her that we were a good fit for her program. This was something I didn't feel was compatible with the care we are seeking. We were originally seeking support for sensory processing and after speaking with my daughter's therapist that she actually doesn't have sensory processing issues. This could have easily been determined on the call. I would like to share this information in case parents are on the long wait list with their child under 3 that they admitted that they are not well equipped to "accommodate " children of that age. A follow up email wasn't sent which would have been a thoughtful curtesy after such an off putting first impression. I can appreciate that her clinic might not be set up for parents to attend with their children but felt that the way this was communicated with me was insulting and disrespectful. I feel this could have easily been avoided in the initial communication with admin staff.

I called the St Mary's OT department four times to schedule an evaluation but always got through to voice mail and my calls were never returned. I was about to scheduled with another provider because I wasn't sure if Candy even worked at St Mary's any longer and it was just too difficult to schedule an evaluation appointment. Persevering, I use the physician's office option when I called the OT office number and finally managed to speak with a human. I was amazed that Candy still works there and was available to evaluate and treat me. Candy is a superb and highly experience therapist. She spent a lot of time listening to the explanation of my neck problem and examining me. We set up 6 appointments where she manipulated my neck and showed me exercises I could do to stop my chiropractor visits and prevent the neck pain. The result is that I no longer have any neck pain and no more visits to the chiropractor. I would give 5 stars for the therapy I received but reduced to 4 overall because of the difficulty in reaching a human being to schedule my evaluation appointment.

I've been cared for by health link in three phases and the first two were difficult, but the most…read morerecent one was worst. This last time I was admitted into care a specific physical therapist treated me like I was lying or making excuses for not being able to walk yet. I was still using my wheelchair, and I was barely able to walk across the street, or outside. I've had four surgeries on my legs, and before that, repairs failed, and before that, I had delayed care while the worldwide infection took place. I suffered significant muscle wasting the first two years and probably each time I suffered a setback in my recovery. I truly don't know why I'm still having difficulties with my mobility since 6 years ago, and it's not just my legs, it my whole body. With that being said, I was bullied and questioned the majority of the latest time with healthlink. Kenneth asked me why it's been six years and I still don't walk right. He repeated that I need to do my exercises, that I gotta do the rehab. That was his literal only concern. If you guys had the ability to monitor my activity 24 hours a day you'd have seen just how much exercise I have done. My body has changed shape since first getting admitted in 2023 and still so changes, I kept getting the third degree about my pt sessions. I did them all. I think the problem was, they didn't accurately assess my needs. They saw a non skinny person with major mobility issues and assumed that I was just fat and lazy, I say this because their main feedback was always, "lose weight" "move". I move daily, I've lost fat mass these last 6 years too and so their "concerns" landed very judgmentally, and very unhelpful, and very traumatizing. I still haven't taken a shower since the last time Healthlink came in to assist with a sponge bath, which was June or early June and I still can't go upstairs to shower. I have explained all the problems that I notice with my body, did all the work, did all the stuff recommended, and they seemed to not be satisfied. It's like they wanted my body progress on their time. I fully don't know what's happening. I don't know how much actual atrophy I have but standing in place makes me sweat no matter the weather, it can be cold cold, and the effort of standing still makes me sweat, because it is very difficult. If standing in place is difficult, just imagine how hard all the other stuff is? I told Kenneth, and Emily, and the female nurse who came, and all three never actually heard me out. They didn't ask me questions about my mobility, they didn't investigate why I might be having such a hard time. I did all the work assigned except for sit to stands, and those always made my knees feel like they were ripping apart. There were a lot of problems with my hands too, and the tissue damage I have is still there. I'm still using my brace, I still haven't returned to my normal weightlifting which was already not that much, I was exercising to the full limit daily and continue to do so even if the intensity is less than before while my hand issues heal. My case is difficult and I'm doing all I can to recover, and still so, these last three individuals treated me like I wasn't trying, like I was lying about my recovery, like I was lying about the efforts. I have been having flashbacks about the their lack of real effort to figure out how to go about my physical therapy. Shout out to the other two male physical therapists who did in fact give me very good feedback during my sessions with them, but sadly they don't work there anymore. I'm sad that the experience went from really great, to really bad, and the thing that made me write this is that I felt bullied despite giving it my all. I feel right now like my body is just barely ready to get back outside, because when I need to rest, my body feels like it's struggling to keep the body together, intact. It feels like my muscle structure is struggling to keep it's integrity. I got let down by the few individuals who decided I didn't even try. One of the latest nurses actually asked me in her words in a very demeaning and taunting tone, "well did you even try to go back to outpatient? Did you actually try to make it?" That's when I realized, these people don't believe I'm this delicate, they think I'm lying. I was so sad and hurt. It's just so low. Thanks for the good parts. The occupational therapists are very good, thanks Carrie for you assistance and insight. Thanks so very much for the good care and times at least. I just feel like you guys gotta train better and stop assumptions. I'm just very very disappointed.

Everyone's prices were either expensive or reasonably priced and although they came highly recommended the wait list to be seen was way too long. Finally Julia called me to see if I was still interested in working with her. She is so easy to connect with and she is so knowledgeable. She had given me a plan about what steps we were going to take that would be in the best interest for my child. Her intake is also VERY thorough and covers more bases than any other intake I've done and I've been through the intake process with connected kidz (who by the way are amazing as well), GGRC, Gatepath, and World of Words. She communicates thoroughly and is sure that she touches base with you on all points. I can honestly say I am looking forward to meeting with. Also, a friend of mine who has been an OT for 20+ years highly recommended her as well. So that must say something.

My grandfather was here for just 2 weeks and contracted COVID from another patient in a room across the hall. The staff did not inform us and we only discovered this when we walked in during a visit to see him get tested (it was positive). Because of this, we've had to refrain our visits. The next time we came to visit, it was clear that he had not eaten in over 1 day and he didn't have proper clothing. Again, they did not communicate that he missed any meals. His blood pressure was 66 over 30 and he had to get escorted to the ER immediately. They only agreed to test his blood pressure after our constant requests.
