Patient Stories & Reviews
Unfiltered stories from patients and families across Grand Rapids who were living with pain, recovering after a fall or surgery, or managing a condition like Parkinson's. Read what actually happened when care came to their door.
Twelve stories. Twelve different starting points.
I'm a 49-year-old stroke survivor and could not walk at all before working with Jenna. Now I can hobble down the hall with a cane. She comes in with a plan to get you better. One of the best decisions I've made.
My 99-year-old mother-in-law had a huge fall and we feared she'd be wheelchair bound. Thanks to Helen, she is standing and walking again. You are never too old to keep moving.
My dad, who has Parkinson's, had therapy with Jenna and Liz. They were kind yet firm, always spoke directly to him, and gave him a variety of exercises. A blessing to have therapists come to the house.
As a coach and motivator, Jenna makes me want to do my exercises. My muscles are more flexible, I am pain free, and I have not had a fall in over a year.
Jenna explains the science behind the exercises and pushes with kindness and humor. She has worked with my 72-year-old dad who has had multiple strokes and quickly adapts exercises for him. Great improvement.
I tried PT for my grandmother to avoid long-term care. In just 12 sessions with Vitality At Home she is so much better. The individualized care lifted her spirits and gave her hope of regaining independence.
After fracturing my kneecap I was in a leg brace for six weeks and could not drive. A home-based rehab service like Vitality was a perfect match. Excellent care and a full, successful recovery.
Another PT forcibly worked on my shoulder and made it worse. Liz came to my house and worked gently, waking up muscles I had not used and strengthening others. My pain gradually became less. Thanks Liz!
At 61 I was losing mobility and balance fast. With Dr. Jenna's help I am moving better, my balance has improved, and I feel more empowered. She really knows how to work with people my age.
I had back, hip and leg pain. Dr. Jenna did a thorough review and showed me the exercises I needed. It worked. She made sure they were at my ability level so I would actually do them. Highly recommend.
Jenna is working with my 86-year-old mother. She is knowledgeable and caring. Mom is not very motivated, but Jenna manages to pull some fight out of her. Best PT we have ever worked with.
I give Vitality At Home 5 stars. Their therapists are friendly and very knowledgeable. Best of all, they come to your house.
