Owner Bruce Forsyth said, “Winning this award was a very
pleasant surprise. All the staff at
Advance Therapy would like to
thank our friends in the Brazos
Valley, The Eagle, as well as our
patients and gym members for this
unexpected honor.”
Advance Therapy first opened
its doors in 1999 with a philosophy
centered on state of the art care,
personalized to fill the individual
needs of each client. Six years later,
the philosophy has paid off, with
Advance Therapy being recognized
by The Eagle readers as the best
physical therapists in the area.
Forsyth moved to the area from
Abilene in 1999. With his family
still in Abilene, he networked
with physicians and promoted his
business. For the first six months,
his time was spent commuting
between Bryan-College Station and
Abilene on the weekends.
“Any time you step out on your own, there is a bit of a risk. And of course, there was a lot of sacrifice at the beginning. This award is tremendously satisfying and I give the credit to God, our community and local physicians for making this possible.”
Forsyth said he credits his physical
therapists Troy Winward, Dana
Burch and Cindy Grant, as well as
the rest of the s taff for this success.
“I have to credit my employees. I have the best employees, they are
very trustworthy and happy, a great
bunch and I consider them one
of my blessings. If you don’t have
happy employees, you won’t have
happy customers,” he said. “We
treat our customers like family.
People are just comfortable coming
in. When people come into your
facility smiling, that is your payday
right there.”
Although he is the owner,
Forsyth, a physical therapist,
continues to work at Advance
Therapy.
“If you own a business, you
better be involved, you have to
be ‘down in the trenches’ with the
employees and know what is going
on. As well as helping to have a
relationship with the employees,
the employees see that you as owner
have a vested interest and you are
not asking them to do anything
you wouldn’t do. They feel like they
are invested in the company as well.
I am grateful for everything they
put into the facility,” he said.
For those who bring this article when visiting us, the first month’s fee will be waived and the second month’s gym fee will be donated to the Easter Seals Foundation. Thanks again Brazos Valley from all of us at Advanced Therapy.
