Alton Physical Therapy is a therapist-owned practice that has been setting the standard of excellence for rehabilitation since 1982. Our reputation is based on success with our patients as well as the commitment to unparalleled customer service.
Our individualized treatment plans follow evidence-based practice patterns that expedite recovery. You will experience the difference our personal touch makes, starting with your first encounters with our office staff. Under the direction of Stephanie Wheeler, our Business Manager, we will always take the time to answer questions and listen to your concerns.
We strive hard to exceed your expectations every step of the way because we know, the highest compliment our patients give us is the referral of their family and friends.
