St. Luke's Inpatient  Rehabilitation

St. Luke's places a high priority on patient and family satisfaction. Our outcomes compare favorably to regional and national rehabilitation hospitals, because we listen to your concerns and suggestions for improvement. Each member of our team is committed to helping you achieve a greater level of independence.
