As a parent of twins with developmental disabilities, I understand the importance of attendance. I also understand the reality of managing multiple therapies, medical appointments, school meetings, and life. Over time, repeated conversations about missed appointments, attendance reminders, and signing attendance acknowledgments left me feeling judged instead of supported. The final straw was accidentally leaving one week off a summer scheduling form, which led to another conversation about attendance. It wasn't about that one incident--it was the realization that this philosophy simply doesn't align with how I believe families of children with additional needs should be treated. The clinicians were wonderful, and the front desk staff were always professional and kind. My disappointment lies with leadership and the culture created by these policies. Families seeking pediatric therapy need partnership, empathy, and flexibility. Unfortunately, that wasn't our experience, and we chose to take our children elsewhere.

Through Oliva's dedication, patience, and incredible skill, he has made more progress than we ever imagined possible. Today, he is now considered "emerging language," and just this past week he has turned into a little chatterbox. It's something we once only hoped for, and now we're getting to experience it every day. Oliva is not only knowledgeable, but she genuinely cares. You can feel how invested she is in each child's success, and it shows in the results. She has been an absolute lifesaver for our family, and we are beyond grateful for everything she has done. I would recommend Oliva over and over again without hesitation. She is truly exceptional.

After my mom underwent major neurosurgery at UCSF following a long health journey, our family had…read moreto decide between caring for her at home or placing her in a post acute rehabilitation facility. Having had very negative experiences with other local facilities in the past, we were honestly terrified to trust another rehab center. Thankfully, several people recommended Tampico, and what a difference this facility was. From the moment we walked in, the building felt clean, welcoming, and well cared for. Every staff member greeted us warmly and treated my mom with dignity and compassion during one of the most vulnerable times of her life. Her care team was wonderful. Her CNAs were Helen, Marie, and Romel. Her PTs were Mimi, Deepika, and Nicole, and her OT was Aarti. Her absolute favorites were Helen, Emiliano, and Aarti. The therapy team pushed her in all the right ways while also taking time to educate our family and encourage my mom throughout recovery. When my mom arrived, she could not even sit up independently. By discharge, she had improved dramatically and was strong enough to transfer to John Muir's intensive rehab program, which prior she didn't qualify for due to her level of weakness. Most importantly, we never once felt like her needs were ignored. The staff consistently responded with kindness, patience, and professionalism. The facility truly felt like a home away from home while still providing excellent rehabilitation care. The only complaint my mom had was the food, especially the fish meals, but she is also a very picky cook-from-scratch person. We are incredibly grateful to the entire Tampico team and would absolutely recommend this facility to families looking for compassionate, quality rehabilitation care.

He has been having difficulty with the very low volume of his speech - just one of the side effects of Parkinson's Disease. Along with her sunny disposition and positive outlook, Terri brought with her many years of expertise in her field. Although Daniel received speech therapy at various times in the past, Terri introduced us to some new techniques and recommendations to help with the speech volume issue, as well as swallowing issues that may possibly become problematic in the future. All of the various techniques, recommendations and exercises presented were very interesting and extremely helpful. We were very pleased with the therapy that Terri provided and although the duration of her visits was limited, she left us with many valuable tools and exercises to work on, along with pleasant memories of her visits and the pleasure of meeting her.
