About the Clinic At Cadence Physical Therapy, we believe therapy should be practiced the way you were taught it should be: enough time with each patient, clinical decisions made by clinicians, and a team that treats the person in front of them. Cadence is an independent, owner-operated outpatient neuro clinic that has served Buffalo Grove for a long time. The owner treats patients in the clinic every week, so every decision about schedules and care is made by someone who feels it themselves. We specialize in the work we love most — stroke, Parkinson's, MS, vestibular disorders, and dysphagia — with PT, OT, and speech therapy collaborating under one roof. Physicians and families have trusted us with their most complex patients, and we've grown to the point where we're ready for our next leader: one experienced PT who will grow into our Clinic Director.
