In this day of corporate takeovers and mega-medicine, it's a little frightening to turn one's self over to these giant conglomerates and trust that the individual care you need is part of the program. Anna Gonzalez was at this facility back when it was Baxter Rehab, and then Care Mark, and she will probably survive a few more. She's a stern taskmaster who'll get you on the road to recovery with little officious B.S. At the same time, she's kind and considerate and will make sure that the program she has you on is suited for your needs. Assistant Kelly Popma is handy with the balance board and big therapeutic rubberband-thingy and at the ready to crack the requisite joke in times of great pain. These sisters'll get you back into whack.
