I'm beyond grateful for our experience here at Shepherd! This place is truly amazing and I can't say it enough. Thank you from the bottom, top and middle of my heart for what you all have done for so many families. My husband is currently a patient at the Shepherd Center and in the few short weeks we have been here, he has improved beyond what we were told (at the previous hospital) would take months to years in just a few short weeks. In less than 3 three weeks my husband is walking and using his left arm and leg almost as well as he did before his stroke.
We are forever thankful for what God is doing for us and so many others through the Shepherd Center. May the Lord continue to bless you and everyone connected to the Shepherd Center.

I am so thankful to have been accepted here. I just need to arrange transportation and the rehab can begin. God bless everyone that makes Shepherd the best

As a recovered patient at Shepherd Center, in 1995, I must share my comment about their care. "By the Grace of God and good doctors, here I am today." I am truly blessed.

If it's really a non profit, why can't they take people with insurance.
