Physical Rehabilitation Network (PRN) announces the grand opening of its second physical therapy clinic in Mission Viejo, California.

The opening marks the 29th clinic in PRN’s joint venture partnership with MemorialCare, a prominent nonprofit Southern California integrated health system. The new clinic will operate under PRN’s network brand, California Rehabilitation and Sports Therapy (Cal Rehab).

“More clinics means more access and opportunity for MemorialCare to deliver a better experience and a better continuity of care—at a reduced cost—to patients across the Southern California region,” says Mark Schafer, MD, CEO of MemorialCare Medical Foundation, which includes MemorialCare Medical Group and Greater Newport Physicians. “PRN’s network of physical therapy clinics is one of the fastest expanding in the country, with a reach that enables us to provide patients a comprehensive range of treatments.”

“We are thrilled to continue expanding our leading physical care programs into the Mission Viejo community,” says Ajay Gupta, CEO, Physical Rehabilitation Network. “With a collaborative joint-venture partner like MemorialCare, we continue to broaden access to our tailor-made approach to physical therapy across the communities we support. At this new Cal Rehab clinic, we’re excited to have our trusted partner and clinic director, Nic Henderson lead our team of passionate and experienced therapists.”

Dr. Henderson will oversee all day-to-day operations as clinic director. A native of Australia, he received a bachelor’s degree from University of Redlands before attending Chapman University to pursue a Doctorate of Physical Therapy. He has vast experience in outpatient physical therapy with a strong emphasis on sports therapy, manual therapy, one-on-one treatment, and more personalized exercise programs. Theresa Nguyen, MPT, will be the lead physical therapist, coming to PRN with over 20 years of experience in orthopedic-based physical therapy. Nguyen’s areas of focus include sports medicine, pediatrics, occupational rehabilitation, and Pilates-based orthopedic rehabilitation.

The new clinic welcomes patients of all ages, offering a wide range of pain management, post-surgery rehabilitation, and injury prevention services, including sports medicine, ergonomic solutions, and more. Located inside of the Alicia Pkwy LA Fitness, the new Mission Viejo clinic accepts most insurance plans and works with patients to help them better understand the benefits of physical therapy and what will be covered by their insurance.
