TESTIMONIAL

The wreck caused me a lot of stress and pain. But the team at Caterra Health got me feeling better in just 4 short weeks. Thank you Caterra!

PENNY D.

I was injured in a car accident, but my doctor said they couldn’t see me. I was able to get in to Caterra Health right away and they took care of my neck and back pain. I’m now back at work and can do everything I was able to do before my car accident.

TRUDY M.

Following my car accident, I saw a doctor for my shoulder pain who told me that I had a small strain and would get better in a few days. When the pain continued to get worse, I called Caterra Health who saw me right away. The doctor and physical therapist examined my shoulder and thought I might have torn my rotator cuff. They ordered an MRI, which I got at their facility and sure enough my rotator cuff was torn. They referred me to an orthopedic surgeon who repaired the tear and sent me back to Caterra for rehab. 2 months later I have no shoulder pain. Anybody that gets in a car accident needs to go to Caterra first. They are the best!
