Athletico also is expanding access to treatment by offering virtual appointments. In addition to in-clinic treatment at Grand Rapids — Forest Hills, patients also have the option to have their condition assessed and treated virtually by a licensed physical therapist through a secure online video chat. 

“As a physical therapist, each day is unique and allows for me to continue to learn new things and make a positive impact on the lives of my patients,” said Barbara Cliffe-Miller, clinic manager of Athletico Grand Rapids — Forest Hills. “I’m looking forward to opening our newest Grand Rapids location and serving the community by helping others improve their quality of life and preventing further injuries.”
