See What Our Patients Are Saying:
“I had a amazing time with Noha. This was my first time at occupational therapy and she made me feel very comfortable. She walked me through the process and also answered all of my questions. Best thing is, she gave me unbiased suggestions to help with my therapy. I highly recommend seeing Noha!”
“I was having an major issue with stiffness and pain in my hand. My doctor recommended Occupational therapy which I had never done before. Little did I know Occupational therapy is very different than PT. Noha not only relieved me of my systems and pain but provided a relaxed environment to get me back to pristine condition. I would definitely recommend Hand in Hand.”
