Former Patient at Boro Park CenterJust two days after my hip replacement surgery I was discharged from the hospital. I was extremely weak and needed a great deal of help to perform the simplest activities. Fortunately, I came to Boro Park Center for my recovery and rehab. The team there gave me a lot of attention. Whenever I needed them, they answered the call. First of all, the therapy is excellent. They didn’t push too hard, but they got me moving, and I started feeling my strength coming back. It is much more than that, though. The activities—music, dancing and more—are great, and so are the food and accommodations. Most important, though, are the people. The Boro Park Center team got me back on my feet and back home in less than three weeks! I highly recommend it to anyone who needs to rehab.

I broke my hip, needed surgery, and I can’t describe how painful it was. I couldn’t get around at all or put any weight on that leg. The doctor said I would need rehab—probably eight weeks of it. I went to Boro Park Center for recovery, and they had me back on feet and back home in just four weeks! The therapy was excellent, but the activities, food, and accommodations were all great, too. Thanks to the Boro Park Center team, I’m as good as new. Need rehab? This is the only place to go!

Former Patient at Boro Park CenterI’ve never felt so low in my life. I got COVID, which led to pneumonia, and I could hardly breathe. I was so weak when I was discharged from the hospital, I was practically helpless. I couldn’t bathe, dress, get out of bed without help. Checking into Boro Park Center, I got all the help I needed. The staff was very accommodating, making sure I was comfortable, coming whenever I called to assist me. The therapy was excellent; my family was very happy, seeing how I was improving and getting stronger every day. I’m not saying it was easy, it was hard work for me and for the therapists. But we worked together, and my condition improved tremendously. They gave me the confidence to succeed! God bless the entire Boro Park Center team!

Former Patient at Boro Park CenterWhen I was discharged from the hospital after being treated for colon cancer, I was in terrible shape. I was weak and unable to do anything on my own. I was in pain—and depressed. Coming to Boro Park Center was a godsend. The staff is so nice and kind. They made me feel better right away. They gave me hope and they gave me my life back. The therapists are very organized and helpful. They even called my family every week to let them know how I was doing. And I was doing much better. The Boro Park Center team made me stronger. It took three months, but it was worth every second. I’m back home now and I couldn’t be happier! I recommend Boro Park Center for the therapy, the accommodations, and the great food.

Former Patient at Boro Park CenterI have Multiple Sclerosis, and last year I experienced an attack—and my condition worsened. I lost my ability to walk and I was in a constant state of anxiety. I felt out of control. The staff at Boro Park Center immediately put me at ease. And it was definitely a team effort: the therapy, the activities, the accommodations and the food were all great—and all geared to improving my condition and making me stronger. I’m getting better by the day. Thanks to the Boro Park Center team, I have my balance back, I can walk again, and my anxiety is gone! I’d recommend them to anyone who needs rehab.

Moshe Blau (as told by his son)
Former Patient at Boro Park CenterMy father was in bad shape, suffering from a combination of hyperglycemia, diabetes, and several other conditions. The result was he was unable to walk or even stand. I was extremely worried about him—whether he’d ever recover. Boro Park Center allayed my concerns. The staff welcomed him professionally, with compassion and care. The therapy is excellent, customized and targeted to his exact needs and condition. The therapists are thorough and caring. The activities are stimulating and enjoyable. The food is ample and tasty, nutritious too! The accommodations are great. Housekeeping and engineering are super responsive. In less than five months, my Dad is back home and can even walk with some assistance. If anybody asks me about Boro Park Center, I’ll tell them: 5 out of 5 stars!

Former Patient at Boro Park CenterWhat worried me most about a fractured pelvic bone was the amount of time it would take to heal. I’m a busy woman and with most of my family out of state, I’ve got things to do! Healing from fractures was not on my schedule! So, boy was I glad when I was admitted into Boro Park Center for Rehab. Even though the therapy team helped me achieve my goals quickly, they did not trade speed for quality care and professionalism. I was out in 13 days! My condition improved much faster than I expected and I can’t thank the staff at Boro Park Center enough. I would strongly recommend this facility for all those looking for a speedy recovery.

Former Patient At Boro Park CenterI lost consciousness and didn’t even know that I had taken a fall. But the damage had been done: a broken pelvis, damage to my liver and spleen, a hairline fracture of my spine. In a word, I was broken, in pain and practically immobile. The truth is I don’t like skilled nursing facilities, but I had to rehab, and it’s clear that Boro Park Center is the best there is. The rehab team is terrific. They worked with me every day with one goal in mind: getting me stronger and getting me back home. Boro Park Center healed me. It took two months and plenty of work, but they put my broken body back together. I’m home and couldn’t be more grateful!

Former Patient at Boro Park CenterI have diabetes and I ultimately had to have my left leg amputated below the knee. When I came to Boro Park Center, I was afraid I was going to be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of my life. The staff there reassured me that I would be able to walk again. They were very good at communicating with me, always being very clear about what I could expect about me progress. The rehab team worked very hard and when I got my prothesis, my physical therapist guided me every step of the way—literally. In less than two months, I was walking again. I’m so happy to be independent and self-sufficient again. Thank you: Boro Park Center. It’s been an amazing experience!
