Our PCW family of patients is always so generous and we want to send a great big “Thank You!!” in advance. We are so excited to bless this beautiful family with YOUR help!!

Our Derby office is MOVING!!!

Early 2024 will bring lots of fun changes in Derby!

We are moving to a larger facility near the small Dillon’s on Buckner St. to accommodate more hours, more patients, and more services!

We hope to add on massage therapy services in 2024! Stay tuned!

We will keep you posted on all changes and important dates so be on the lookout in future newsletters, emails, and social media posts. Follow us on social media by clicking any of the social media buttons at the bottom of this newsletter.
