I worked with PT, Beth for the rehab of my back. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. She was the best therapist I have ever worked with. She motivated me, she came up with some of the most amazing interventions to help me stand up straighter. She Pushed me through the pain. My strength improved significantly, and I am better than ever. Thank you, Virginia health home care!

Phil King is one of the best physical therapist I've had. He does a first class job and has a style that is very friendly.

I was referred to VHS by my orthopedic doctor and I went in with pain, but after a month I am sleeping, walking and feeling positive about myself. I recommend VHS because the atmosphere is positive, the workers are professional and caring with the patients that I saw come in, and, most of all, I feel better.

If you need to be seen for Physical Therapy, this is the place!! I have been treated by 4 different Physical Therapist over the years and for different issues; I love all of them. Their knowledge, compassion, kindness and professionalism is top notch. And if you have Tri-Care they accept it here!!

We have had other home care companies before, but VHS Home Health Care is the best. Everyone was wonderful, but especially Nancy with PT (physical therapy).

We really love Rebecca. She worked with my parents over a year ago when they first came from rehab. She is very patient, kind and caring. She worked with my mom this time and worked with my husband and I on the hoya lift, which we were afraid to use, and sliding board. She taught us what to do and the best way to make my mom feel comfortable using it and helping us feel comfortable as well. After a couple of tries, I was able to use the lift on my own. She provided her knowledge, care and also printed off information in case we forgot a step. She is simply the best. She really proves she cares about her patients and their family as she worked around my work schedule. Rebecca is a true asset to the VHS company. Keep her around.

I’ve been going to VHR on and off for several years. I’ve worked with three Physical Therapist’ and they have all been great! I’ve been to other facilities and VHR is by far the best for numerous reasons. I’m working with Jon right now and he has already helped with me with my knee issues and I’ve only had three sessions. I’ve been dealing with this for over a year and in hindsight, I should have gone to PT sooner. Thanks Jon for caring so much about your patients!

Jon Sterner is by far the best PT that I've ever had! His knowledge of the SI Joint and ability to evaluate is second to none. Jon is able to create relief by adjustments and give effective exercises for long term stabilization. I really appreciate his inspiring "talks" when I get down and negative, if and when the journey to recover isn't as fast as I want. Jon is great at his craft and incredible at physician- patient relations.

Virginia Health Rehab has been a lifesaver for me. After an injury I started PT with another facility. While everything was going well, I wanted to explore different options in the area. Every aspect of VHR works perfectly; I have joked that during these times, VHR is the only thing going well for me! I called expecting to wait several weeks for an appointment, but they were able to see me within a week. The office staff is both friendly and professional. The PT I see is John; he is a miracle worker. Within two visits, I was able to do things I had not done in over two months. He works with his patients the entire session ensuring the exercises you will do at home are being done correctly. His knowledge and experience combine to make him simply amazing. He is personable and easy to talk to while doing therapy. John also makes sure that his patients are in a great place mentally with encouragement and care. I can't say enough about how wonderful VHR has been - choosing to do PT here has been a life changing experience.

Phil King is such a knowledgeable and encouraging PT! We first met Phil in 2018 when my wife had total right knee replacement. At our request, Phil was her PT when she had a left total knee replacement four months later. Then in May 2021, I fell from a ladder which required surgery and rehab. Once released to come home, Virginia Home Health provided Nurse, PT, OT and yes, Phil was requested once again! Last week I had a total right knee replacement, myself and of course, Phil, was the man! He is truly a dedicated and compassionate person. I would highly recommend him to anyone requiring his services!
Robert M. Dick
I would like to commend the staff at VHS Home Health and VHS Rehabilitation therapists. Everyone was very helpful during the time my mother was under their services. We found ourselves in some difficult situations and they were quick to respond and assist. Thank you to Cheri and Nikki. Very special thank you to Phil, Carrie and Lenora. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
JMB
Philip was extremely helpful with my walking and leg strengthening. He was pleasant and punctual.
Marjorie Tongue
Excellent! Had me back walking in no time. Friendly and a great guy to work with.
Nancy Lewis
Phil King is a great therapist for my dad. He has helped him a lot through his journey and would always love to have him come back if he ever needed him again. He is very friendly, nice and great to have in our home.
Lynett Hughes
Phil King was my therapist ... very kind and caring.
Gerry LaBarre
"Welcome Home!" This is what you feel from the moment you enter this establishment. The staff greets you with a warm welcome and you feel at ease. They are an excellent group of friendly, caring, knowledgeable, and passionate individuals. I received physical therapy at Port Warwick and I would refer anyone here. Jon was the first therapist I worked with and he was AMAZING!!! He cared for me every step of the way and it was so genuine. I cried my first day because he really gave me words that I needed to hear. He told me, "you have to stop living in fear and you are gonna get your life back." He recognized how nervous I was to do some of the movements because I was afraid to feel the pain I had experience prior to coming to VHS Rehabilitation. At that moment I knew this was just not a therapist trying to do his daily job and get me out of there but he actually took every part of his job serious and with great compassion, not only to help but to motivate his clients as well. I was also blessed with having the opportunity to work with another therapist named Tony. It just got better and better ... this was just a dynamic duo!! Tony also had so much passion and was great with his techniques. He wanted to make sure that the level of care was still at its highest and 100% focused on my needs. I couldn't ask for a better place to be; this facility by far exceeded my expectations of physical therapy. I truly miss them already. The day I got discharged was bittersweet but I will not be a stranger ... like Jon states, "you are part of the family." Thank you VHSR and all of your staff for a superb experience, you all are great!!!
Katrina Williams
As a US NAVY Active Duty Personnel that is about to retire I would love to thank the crew and the family-based vibe of the facility where I was being treated for knee and back pain. They also work with your availability through proper scheduling. This organization is professionally handled by talented Administrative Staff Members, alongside 3 Physical Therapist and an Occupational Therapist with more than 30 years of combined work experience in the medical industry treating Veterans, Seniors, Children and the Youth of the Port Warwick Region. I highly recommend their services to anyone interested in getting better through Physical and Occupational Therapy.
Manny Victor
Absolutely the best experience from beginning to end at Virginia Health Rehab. Everyone is very welcoming and kind and listen to what you are experiencing with your injuries and healing. I cannot thank them enough for helping my son with his physical therapy experience. Thank you Tony!! We really appreciate you and the rest of the staff at VHR.

Clean and relaxing atmosphere. John and Tony were exceptional and I did enjoy working with them. I definitely left there better than how I went in.
Emmanuel Ottey
10++ stars!!! The lower back pain I was having was debilitating; I couldn’t even sneeze without almost crying and it was affecting my entire life. The team here is THE most professional, friendly, experienced, and effective I have ever seen. There is no other place I would recommend. I am now back living a full life. Thank you VHS!!!!
amanda barrack
The service by VHS Rehabilitation has been great. My physical trainers have done an outstanding job toward the healing of my back. The physical procedures are great. I love the way they start off with a warm-up drill. They are always holding you accountable toward your healing. My trainers have very educational conversations that will help you toward your healing and toward general life. I love their professionalism. May God bless the entire staff at VHS Rehabilitation. Tell them Bravo Zulu (which in the military means well done).
Ricardo Miller
Had an awesome experience at VHS. Everyone is welcoming, lots of laughing. They care about their patients. Left there feeling much better as opposed to when I came in for my knee injury. Enjoyed working with Tony; heard my needs and problems. Really helped me regain strength in my knee. I recommend anyone in the military looking for a civilian physical therapist to visit VHS, it’s a much better experience.
Cynthia Sanchez
Everyone from the therapist, the admin, and even other patients are wonderful. You truly feel welcomed and very military friendly. I learned a lot about my injury and how to help prevent future injuries.
Ricardo Perez
Best place. My PT is awesome help me to recover after an injury. 100% recommended.
Cesia S
Best Rehab in VA!!! Tony is the man!!
Derek Davis
I have never met a group of outstanding professionals. Since engaging in physical therapy, my lower back pain has improved significantly. Tony, Jon, Sheetal, and Rushie are so friendly and caring of their patients. They provide a family-oriented environment to their patients. I’m so impressed how receiving physical therapy has improved my overall mobility and functioning. If you are in need of physical therapy, I recommend this facility 100 percent. I absolutely love this team and their dedication to ensuring their patients are better and healthier!
Wanda Uzzle
Right off the bat, you feel like you're at the gym with friends. The therapists and Ms. Rushie are so welcoming. I primarily worked with Tony and Sheetle, and a little bit with John. They are AMAZING! I am feeling better than when I started.
Nicole “Cole” Gustafson
All the staff are great at VHS Rehabilitation. Everyone is friendly and everytime I hurt my back, Jon fixes me right up. I would not go anywhere else.
Mark
I would truly like to thank all my therapists for helping me try to get back well with my knee problems and being so patient with me 4 days a week. I would definitely recommend that have or need pt or ot to get a referral to VHS, which is Virginia Health Service from your doctor. They do good work helping you get better slowly but surely. Thank you so much.
Lance Powell
The comments made here are directed to the physical/occupational therapy staff. When I arrived here more than three months ago I could do very little physically but with the help and encouragement offered by the staff and in particular the therapists Elizabeth and Ellen, I have made progress beyond my expectations! The entire staff who worked with me were very supportive and encouraging, and their praise always (encouraged) me to work just a little harder. It is with great thanks that I give them the credit for my ability to return to an independent living. Girls—Thank you so very much.
Marie Wynne(as left for The Newport)
Phil King is the bomb!!! Works well with my 93 yo friend old. Very informative, calm, knowledgeable, keeping family updated on her progress. I would highly recommend him to be the PT guy!!!!
Karen Daube
Amazing and professional work by entire staff. Great care and attention to detail in all they do from handling insurance needs to treatment itself. Special shout outs for their efforts Rushana and Maxine for their exemplary work in my recovery.
Nathan Zdanowicz
Jon Sterner is the best physical therapist I’ve ever worked with. He’s a true master. PT isn’t his job; it’s his craft, his vocation, his way of serving others. I knew I had found the right provider when he reviewed my foot injury and then assessed the alignment of the rest of my body. Jon considers the big picture. (Who knew clavicles could be implicated in lower body issues?!) He’s a creative Sherlock. He asks questions and listens. Really listens. Then explains details. He took time to get to know me — specifically, what activities I practice routinely and how the injury was affecting my work. No two therapy sessions were the same: Every session began with a review of basic movements and then introduced progressively more challenging exercises. Jon doesn’t just help patients rehab injuries; he explains how to avoid a repeat. For homework exercises, he never sent me off with printouts of generic exercises and the dismissive “do 2 sets of 10 daily” many of us have experienced elsewhere. Instead, he tailored the homework to my needs and to the nature of my daily activity. The homework routine not only helped resolve my injury; it continues to contribute to an overall efficiency and safety of movement when I move, exercise, and even sit. If you want to be part of your own healing journey, Jon Sterner is the best partner-provider ever. He’s deeply burdened to help patients heal and is passionate about helping them learn how to integrate movement into daily life in a way that supports improved health and wellbeing.
Laurie Pillow
Jon Sterner is literally the BEST PT I have ever worked with! He is thorough and VERY knowledgeable in his trade. When I walked in, he assessed me and knew exactly what the problem was and how to fix it! Throughout my time there, he helped me so much. I had increased my degrees of motion by more than 10 degrees with the workouts he had suggested and had me do during our visits. He intentionally and genuinely cares for his patients. He is a great leader as he constantly pours into the other PTs there. I would highly recommend him and his services. I’m very thankful for what he has done for me during our sessions and truly feel he has added so much value to my life. GO JON!!!!
Jevon and Monique Page
Love the staff.
Tristan Williamson
My therapist is very professional and has (been) great to work with.
