Exceptional Care for the Body, Mind, and Spirit! And they have a heated pool! and an olympic sized…read morepool!
Since September, I have been receiving aqua therapy and rehabilitation for my back issues at St. Dominic's Outpatient Rehabilitation and Hand Management Center in Jackson, Mississippi. The care I have received has been outstanding. This team brings together professionalism, compassion, encouragement, and just the right amount of tough love!
My heartfelt thanks go to Melanie Grafton, Bethany Koury, Amy Willoughby, Lisa Lamb, Kaitlyn Harthcock, Nora Moss, Haley Boteler, Anna Dawson, Patricia Oyarce, Heather Baxter, Chelsea Fisher, Aimee Brown, and Rachel Dear. These knowledgeable therapists work as a coordinated team. They consistently track my progress, celebrate my improvements, and challenge me to do more than I sometimes believe I can--all while respecting my capabilities and keeping my safety and recovery at the center of every session. They make me feel seen, supported, and encouraged to keep moving forward.
Director Amy Willoughby deserves special recognition for leading such a wonderful facility. The environment is clean, positive, and uplifting, and the team's care for their patients shines through. Rehabilitation can be difficult, but this staff makes showing up and doing the work something to look forward to.
That care begins the moment you walk through the door. Erica Ilbanks, Bria Turnage, and Jessica Perry are friendly, welcoming, and helpful with scheduling, appointments, and questions. Bria makes the experience especially personal with a fresh pot of coffee waiting for me and a fun "survey of the day." Those thoughtful touches make a difference!
What I appreciate most is that I am treated as a person, not simply an appointment on the schedule. This facility supports healing beyond the body--it lifts the mind and spirit, too. I am deeply grateful for these remarkable ladies and wholeheartedly recommend this center to anyone seeking skilled rehabilitation delivered with compassion, dignity, and heart.
