The ever-growing Rock Valley Physical Therapy network is expanding again with the January grand opening of Rock Valley Kids clinic in Davenport. It’s designed to meet the speech, occupational and physical therapy needs of Quad Cities kids.

Rock Valley Kids is one of 61 locations across Iowa, Illinois and Nebraska operated by Rock Valley Physical Therapy. Founded in 1984, Rock Valley Physical Therapy has expanded to become one of the largest therapist-led, private physical therapy practices in the country.

Leaders of the family of clinics said in a news release that Rock Valley expects the kids’ clinic at 1008 W. 35th St., Davenport — which opened on a limited basis this month — to set “the bar high” for pediatric care in the region. 

The clinic will be led by Quad Cities native Maggie Bohnert, a registered and licensed occupational therapist who earned a Master of Occupational Therapy degree from St. Ambrose University.

And ‘exciting opportunity’

“The expansion of Rock Valley Kids to the Quad Cities is an exciting opportunity to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary programs and resources for our communities,’’ said Wendy Bloomhuff, Quad Cities regional manager of Rock Valley Physical Therapy. “Rock Valley Kids will undoubtedly thrive in the Quad Cities, as Maggie leads with heart and builds strong relationships with her patients and team members alike.’’

Ms. Bohnert joined Rock Valley Physical Therapy in September of 2019 and “has been instrumental in helping Rock Valley’s Rehab team in Muscatine, Iowa, build a comprehensive pediatric program to serve its surrounding communities,” Rock Valley said in the release.

“I am beyond excited to be serving the community I live in,’’ Ms. Bohnert said. “I will very much miss Muscatine, but there is something special about serving your neighbors, especially when there is a need.”

She added: “I am looking forward to expanding a niche practice by doubling the pediatric footprint in our company and allowing us to showcase the diversity of practice within Rock Valley.”
