Praise for Lisa Dolphin, OT
Words are not enough to convey the kind of care and love that Lisa puts into each of her patients. She is patient, kind, brilliant in her fields of expertise, and provides unparalleled care to her patients.

“I often think back to our first days as parents to a special needs child. So readily I can recall the moment that I was told, 'H* may never walk.'
As many parents in similar situations know, adjusting to the unknowns of current care and future hopes can be overwhelming and scary. To say that my family was lucky to meet Lisa is an understatement. Without her, I may have let the doctor convince me that I was wasting my time teaching my daughter to walk. Lisa's commitment to Hannah has been unwavering, even on our hardest days.
Words are not enough to convey the kind of care and love that Lisa puts into each of her patients. Her knowledge is vast and her dedication to continued learning is unmatched. She is patient, kind, brilliant in her fields of expertise, and provides unparalleled care to her patients.
When my husband and I found out that our third child was also born with genetic abnormalities, we knew that Lisa was the therapist we could trust to help us navigate life with two special needs children. I am a better parent because of Lisa's guidance, and my kids are blessed with the highest quality of care thanks to Lisa's hard work and dedication to their success.
I whole-heartedly recommend Lisa and her clinic to anyone that wants outstanding care for their children. She is, undoubtedly, the best we could ask for.”

Lisa has the uncanny ability to adapt and mold herself into what my child needs each session and then bring out the best of my daughter’s abilities all without my daughter even knowing she’s ‘working.’
Melanie, mother of A* / Full testimonial below
“Lisa has a true passion and boundless enthusiasm for her profession as an Occupational Therapist. Her therapy solutions are endless so if one approach doesn’t have the desired effect, she finds one that does. Lisa has the uncanny ability to adapt and mold herself into what my child needs each session and then bring out the best of my daughter’s abilities all without my daughter even knowing she’s ‘working.’ This ability is not something that can be taught and I have not experienced with any of her other therapists.
I truly believe that without Lisa’s guidance, my daughter would still struggle with feeding issues. My daughter went from a 100% g-tube fed infant, who was told by more than one doctor that she would never be able to eat orally, to having her feeding tube permanently removed at age 6! Today my daughter is 8 ½ and eats any consistency she desires. Having Lisa in my daughter’s corner has made all the difference and I would recommend her care to anyone.”

Praise for Suzie Johannes, PT
Suzie is an outstanding physical therapist and the kindest, most compassionate person I have ever met. Her skill and knowledge helped my son to make physical progress that we never thought was possible.
Stacey, mother of J* / Full testimonial below
“My son J was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder after he turned one. He had been in physical therapy and occupational therapy since he was six months old, and up to that point we hadn't had the best experiences with therapy. After getting our diagnosis we connected with a service that led us to Suzie Johannes. She changed both of our lives.
My son and I worked with Suzie once a week for almost two years. She is the best there is. Suzie is an outstanding physical therapist and the kindest, most compassionate person I have ever met. Suzie's skill and knowledge helped my son to make progress physically that we never thought was possible. She loved my son and our family as her own. She always went above and beyond in helping me get what my son needed, and she helped me fight for him every step of the way. Suzie encouraged and sustained me as a parent when I didn't think I had anything left. She patiently answered all my questions and helped me to understand what I could do at home to help my son make gains.
I am thrilled to hear that Suzie is starting her own practice, because I know that so many kids and parents are going to be beyond blessed walking through the doors of ProActive Pediatric Therapy and encountering Suzie as their physical therapist. I can't recommend her enough. She will change the lives of you and your child.”

Praise for Suzie Johannes, PT
Suzie “gets it” on so many levels. She sees our family as a whole, has connected us to countless resources, and always makes me feel supported and encouraged as a mama caring for a special needs child.

“Suzie is open to new ideas and builds on things we’re already doing. She uses what we have in our home to challenge O so it’s easier to implement new things. Suzie’s a bright spot in O and our family’s journey!”
