Florida Elks Children's Therapy Services Parent Comments

My daughter is benefiting greatly from therapy. Pat has been wonderful and very helpful in facilitating care for my daughter.

Miss Chris, our therapist, has been our angel. Thank God for her. She has helped us so much.

Stephanie is great. She always comes up with new activities to help call stay interested. I have seen much improvement in Cal since he started working with her. Thank you for providing this great service.

Lynanne was very educated, responsible and sweet with my children. She is very aware of the children’s abilities and knows what needs to be addressed. I highly recommend lynanne to anyone. She is a wonderful individual and shines when working with children. She is an asset to your organization.

Paula was very helpful and very informative.

Teri was very helpful to us! The great part is the therapist comes to the child’s environment (home) to help him get better. Also, the therapist works with the parents to help the child also.

Therapy was provided by a highly qualified therapist in my child’s least restrictive environment. He looked forward to tuesdays, “Mr. Bruce days!” The elks are a terrific and much appreciated group who provided services to our child with hypertonia. He has so much more confidence in his physical abilities than he had before the onset of services. Bruce Nathan, our son’s pt, was excellent. He knew when to push trey (or mom) further and when to pull back.

We wish there were more therapists like Nikki McAnary. She made the therapy program a great experience. We want to thank you for all you do. This is an amazing program.

Diane Norton was absolutely wonderfull!!! We miss her so much. I would like to thank the elks for providing this much needed service free of charge!

The program was very effective, my son was able to accomplish every milestone because of the assertiveness of the therapist and exercises recommended. Larry Lester is very committed, loves kids and very knowledgeable. I don’t think there is any area that needs improvement. All I would like to say is thank you for helping my son and providing an outstanding service.

Samantha, our daughter, has made significant improvements. Therapy definitely helps and it is helpful to have the therapist come to our home. This helps develop trust with the child. Beth Thiers has an excellent rapport with our daughter.

I believe you are a very valuable resource and without Christina’s help our son would not be making progress. We appreciate your services! Christina is a great therapist and always takes the time to communicate Will’s progress!

The Florida Elks is the best therapy services we have ever had. Totally professional therapists. Kudos to Yvette Lambert and Paula Tarver.

I think very highly of the Florida Elks Children’s Therapy. Jacintha is a very caring person. She does everything in her power to help my daughter and my family out. We will remain close even after the therapy.

I am so grateful for the knowledge the therapist has given us. I’ve been very happy with the service my son receives and have recommended you to my friends. I think the “Elks” are wonderful. I really express my gratitude with the cost of therapy being so high. I’m truly grateful for everything. Thank you Elks!

I love your program. The therapies are great. I love that they are done at home. This gives us the opportunity to learn the many things we can do at home with our son. Right now my son receives OT. Our therapist is amazing. My son asks for her all week and is very excited when it is time to “play”.

Jeanne was awesome with my son. She really cared about him. She noticed things that my son needed to work on that I didn’t even know! She always talked about every activity. It was so helpful!

My son greatly improved on his sensory defensiveness and made improvements with his fine motor skills. Jeanne was very creative in the activities that she brought each week. She is a happy, positive person. She was marvelous! I thank the Elks from the bottom of my heart for providing this service for Florida’s children! My son has made such great strides. It was truly a blessing to my family. Thank you for caring so much for children you don’t even know! Thank you!

The Elks organization has the children’s well‐being a heart. Chantal is an excellent professional and a warm‐hearted and caring human being. She showed concern and care towards my daughter and the quality and reliability of the services she provided were outstanding.

I am excited to see such progress in only 1 ½ months. So far it has been extremely helpful, positive experience. I love being shown therapy that i can incorporate into our daily rountine. We have seen amazing results in a short time. Can’t wait to see move improvements in the coming months,. It has been a great help to our family and i would recomment it to anyone needing service. Would like to thank the Florida Elks for helping our child and family. We received very prompt response and have had nothing but a positive experience. Our therapist, Margot Baker, has been an amazing blessing and help to our family. She is extremely knowledgable in all areas and is very loving and patient with our child. Thank you!

On june 9th, our family was invited by Margot Baker to join several Elks for lunch in Bradenton and a visit to Mote Marine. It was an honor to be in the lodge and treated so kindly. Until this experience, i didn’t fully understand what the Elks do and ; the whole mission or vision behind this organization. Thank you Elks for your kindness towards my family.
