    At SMVPTour philosophy is one-on-one quality care.  The physical therapists in this clinic spend the
    majority of their time working directly with their patients.  You  deserve one-on-one care from a
    licensed therapist, not treatment from ancillary staff.  Our staff consists of seven licensed physical
    therapists, one occupational therapist/certified hand therapist (CHT), and five physical therapy aides.
    The professional staff has over 100 years of combined experience and attends a minimum of two continuing
    education courses each year.  Through our low patient/therapist ratio and our commitment to education,
    we strive to give each patient the best possible care.
