"To whom it may concern –
Over the last fourteen months, I have had the privilege to work with Brad Jones
at Kruse and Associates in Tulsa. In that time, both Brad and his staff have
been extremely professional, addressed my particular needs and placed me in
engagements where I could be highly successful.
It is rare when a search firm goes the extra mile for their candidates. Brad
went so far as to reimburse me for the expenses of acquiring project management
certification. This enabled me to secure additional engagements both with Kruse and elsewhere.
In the future, I would not hesitate to work again with Brad. In addition, I would
urge any potential candidates to have Brad represent them in their job searching efforts."

"It was a pleasure to work for a very good company like TheraKare, Inc.
/ Kruse and Associates. They have been very helpful and supportive in
all my travel assignments and especially in processing my immigration
papers. They have been good with foreign-educated/trained therapist.
Thanks a lot, more power and Take KARE to all of you."

"By the way, I checked TheraKare's website. I was happy to find it
so interesting, informative and helpful. It enlightened me about so many
things and I somehow got a clear overview of what and how it's going to
be, myself being a "traveling PT". I found it as a very welcoming
idea, exciting treat and opportunity as well as a challenging journey. All my
questions were answered, and my concerns were all properly addressed. Now, my thoughts
are clear. I am certain with my decision. And I can't wait to be a
part of your prestigious company.
I am convinced that my decision to join the dynamic, fabulous and
professional healthcare team of TheraKare is one big leap towards
success and fulfillment. And for that, I commit my word to work with
you as a Physical Therapist to the best of my ability.
Please keep in touch always.
Thank you so much for working so diligently on this and for helping me
in every step of the way."

RehabCare Group has facilities in over 40 states and I need
a company that has the ability to solve my staffing problems
quickly. TheraKare does that. Their reasonable rates and prompt

extol the virtues of good service from a company, but I feel
compelled to do so in this case.
We have had need for quick and emergent physical therapy
services during this last year and your company has responded
in a very timely, courteous and professional manor. Your company's
very existences makes my job in recruiting physical therapists
much easier. I was very pleased to know you had a therapist
ready to come to our facility should an emergency situation
arise. It is for these reasons that I continue to use your
company and appreciate your keeping us informed with your
quarterly newsletter and occasional calls to see how we are
doing in the facility.
I highly recommend your services to others should you ever
need an endorsement. Keep up the good work."

can be a difficult and stressful task. Your company has provided
excellent service and quality therapists, which helps TruCare
continue to grow. I would like to express my appreciation to
your wonderful staff and want to thank you for making my job
easier.
TheraKare has provided my company with exceptional therapists
who are well-trained and a pleasure to work with. the placement
department has been a joy to work with. Cathy Logan was a
very attentive to our specific needs, and gave great effort
in ensuring that our criteria was met. I never once worried
that our patients would not get the quality treatment that
they deserve.
I definitely plane to use TheraKare in the future, and will
not hesitate to call when a new need arises. Please accept
my appreciation of the excellent services your company has
provided and be assured that I will recommend your services
to others.
Thank you again for all of your hard work and dedication

I appreciate you and all your efforts with us. You have always
been honest and caring about our arrangements. I particularly
am impressed with how much you care about Eileen as well as
us. There seems to be no conflict of interest. I feel a part

I know that Eileen also values you. She speaks very highly
of you and feels very safe in your care. I believe her trust
in you has been well grounded. I trust you as well.

capable occupational therapist. I would not hesitate to cal

"I am writing in reference of TheraKare's contract therapy
services. I have had the pleasure of working with Cathy Logan
and TheraKare since 1997 when I was an Area Manager with Team
Rehab. When I became director of Therapy with Balanced Care
in July 1999, I elected to continue to utilize TheraKare's services
with my new company because of the outstanding treatment I had
received from Cathy in the past. I endured the challenge of
taking Balanced Care's therapy services in-house with the help
of TheraKare. When Balanced Care sold in Jan. 2000, I explained
to my supervisors that I wished to continue to utilize TheraKare
because of the excellent experiences I have had with Cathy and
her staff in the past.
TheraKare has provided staffing coverage for me, often on
very short notice. The caliber of the therapists that TheraKare
has provided has consistently been superior. I have found
TheraKare's staff to be talented, properly oriented, and very
independent in the delivery of quality therapy services. It
is so critical with short-term staffing to have therapists
that can walk into a situation, assess it, and beginning work
immediately. TheraKare's staff has accomplished this while
always being pleasant and at the same time maintaining the
productivity standards expected.
I would like to say that Cathy Log is TheraKare to me. No
matter what needs I have, I know I can count on Cathy not
only to come through, but also to come through with "flying
colors". In addition to the suburb quality of her staff,
Cathy Logan is the main reason I continue to utilize TheraKare's
services.
I will continue to use TheraKare any time I have contract
therapy service needs. I am extremely grateful to have Cathy
and her crew to call upon."
Lisa Murphy, BSW, MOT, OTR
Director of Therapy
Christian Health Care
"Besides myself, I would not work for any one else.
I am a foreign trained therapist in the states now for 5+
years. At TheraKare I have never been lied to, never had a
contract pulled from under me, never been left without support,
never been forced to take a position, never had my immigration
and visa status held over me as a bargaining chip. I have
been shown the utmost respect and consideration for my judgment
both professional and personal. it is the only company that
I know that has changed the cheque printing paper in order
to save money - before cutting the therapist benefits. they
have always been 100% up front with me. and even overcome
my barriers and mistrust of American corporate employers."
Maxine
"This year, after not having to utilize agency staff for
several years, we experienced some turnover and I was on the
search for some help. I was lucky enough to get in contact with
TheraKare and Brad Jones.
To keep this pleasant story brief, all I can say is that
Brad and the TheraKare Team have been absolutely WONDERFUL!
They were timely, followed up appropriately and took care
of things for us down to the last detail. As a result, not
only were we able to contract a fabulous therapist, but we
also were then able to put him on as a full-time staff member.
Our gain... TheraKare's loss.
Our hospital and the Rehab department have been very happy
with our TheraKare experience! I would highly recommend them
when your needs dictate!"
Very sincerely and very satisfied...

I am writing this email letter in appreciation of the help and

services of Immigration Specialties.
In 1994 Immigration Specialties took over as exclusive vendor

helpful to the company.
Over the years, Beverly Enterprises, Inc., and their subsidiaries

My name is George Paltakis and I have used the services of

went
smoothly, my expectations were met or exceeded and overall

like to do so, please post my comments to your website. "

"Our company has recruited foreign trained professionals
for over ten years. We managed our immigration form processing
needs internally for most of that time but the administrative
burden became too great. After a lot of frustration with other
services, and until we started to work with IS about two years
ago, we were unable to find an external service provider that
we felt would do as thorough a job as we did internally. Our
experience with IS is AAA across the board. The people there
are knowledgeable, accessible, professional, responsive, and
a pleasure to deal with. I look forward to a long relationship.

We received both (green) cards last week. I was quite surprised
to see mine but relieved that I didn't have to do anything.
Thank you and your staff for all your assistance. I am going
to try to convince our friends to move their paperwork...to
your office. Even if you can't speed the process it is refreshing
to speak to someone that genuinely cares and that has the answers
to some of the complicated questions. Hope you have a good year
and maybe we'll make it through Broken Arrow and visit you when
we finally move from Texas."

You and your company have helped me a lot. Of course I won't
mind having my comment posted on Express Yourself...When I found
your website from Yahoo a week ago, I found the "Express
Yourself" section and read those comments. To be quite
honest, I doubted that they may be coined by the company. Now
I understand that all of them are from people like me, who feel
very grateful to the help you offered.
I know I have said it many times, but I want to say it again:
Thank you. Thank you very much. You are so helpful and your
reply is so timely. I wish I could express my grateful to
you, but I just can't. You are so great! Thanks!"

Service WITH the personal touch throughout the ENTIRE duration

checked with other people and other companies, but in the end
I knew that Immigration Specialties would be the best for me.
You would think "How Hard could it be... file a few papers"...
but from my experience, issues arise, and you cannot believe
how it could affect your whole life. You need someone that you
can talk to, get answers from and most of all, a company that
you can TRUST to do the best job possible for you, your family
and your livelihood....Immigration Specialties is that Company!
"
Natasha Meger
Occupational Therapist
As a foreign trained physical therapist from the Netherlands
I decided to file for permanent residency one year after arrival
in the United States. I was referred to Immigration Specialties
by a colleague of mine who received her greencard six months
after she started the process. Unfortunately not everyone is
as lucky as my colleague and along with many others a long waiting
process started due to changes in I.N.S. policies.
Immigration Specialties has done an outstanding job arranging
all required paperwork but most important to me is that still
whenever there is a situation in which I feel I need advise
concerning my immigration status, the staff of Immigration
Specialties is always there to talk to. As Im still
waiting for my adjustment of status to come through, there
have been many times when I needed a boost not to give up
hope which is exactly what I found calling Immigration Specialties.
As it gets harder and harder to deal with I.N.S. I highly
recommend Immigration Specialties for these matters based
on their experience and the fact that they care.
Jeroen Kleine Staarman
Physical Therapist
"Immigration Specialties has gone far beyond and above
what I expected, demonstrating personal interest in helping
me through the process, understanding in answering all of my
questions and professional efficiency in helping me over both
expected and unexpected hurdles. I would highly recommend their

immigration process. "
