You won’t find a better place for treating neurological conditions than Engage. This team is top notch, we are lucky to have them in Central NY. My day to day life has improved significantly thanks to the strategies and therapy I have gotten at Engage.

TB
I had an unexpected spinal cord injury in July of 2021. It has been a long and inconsistent road but I can say with 100% certainty that without Liz I wouldn’t be where I am at today. Liz has troubleshooted every single obstacle and given me the tools to regain my life back. 💕

LP
It was suggested by my son’s previous physical therapist and his general practitioner that we consider Engage to support his neurological diagnosis. From the first phone call to Engage, through evaluations, and now all therapies he is currently receiving - their collaboration between services, knowledge, integrity, and the joy for their job which they share with the clients is extraordinary. My son is making unbelievable consistent success that is unmatched from any other services from Syracuse, to Chicago, IL. and to Los Angeles, CA. Also, a fun fact is the clients become like family as they share in their success and cheerleading for each other. Thank You Engage - my mother’s heart is smiling as I place my adult son in your competent and caring hands!!
