Testimonials

"Around the time I turned 50 my body started becoming more unreliable and I knew I needed to see someone. My story is typical in that I had excellent care as a child, but from the age of about 25-50, I didn't really have a CP doctor. Whenever I tried to find one, they only saw kids. Luckily, a friend of mine found the center and sent me the link."

"Thanks to the excellent care I received at the Weinberg Family CP Center, my body is on a path to healing, and my quality of life is nearly what it was before I started to lose my ability to walk independently. My mind, emotions, and heart are healing as well."
