Highly impressed with MPTC's exceptional care and expertise! Our child has made remarkable progress since starting therapy here and the staff and therapists have absolutely become part of his inner circle. The therapists and staff are compassionate, knowledgeable, and truly connect with the children. The center's child-friendly environment and supportive staff create a safe and nurturing space for kids to grow. We wholeheartedly recommend MPTC to any parents seeking top-notch therapeutic care for their children.

We've seen huge amounts of growth and progress in our son Drew, from imitating words to now saying 4-5 word sentences, asking questions, and explaining how he or someone else is feeling. Not only is he much more verbal but his confidence has improved tremendously. Most mornings Drew asks if we are going to see his therapist. We are so thankful for all the time, hard work, and relationships that they have formed with our son, as he really looks forward to going to therapy. We truly feel that therapy has made a huge difference in our lives as they are encouraging, knowledgeable, and informative with our family. We are so thankful for all resources and therapists at Minnetonka Pediatrics and we look forward to the continued impact that they will have on Drew.

My little one had 6 tie revisions at 5 months old, and I was unsure of how to cope and handle the recovery process. Thankfully, I was introduced to the amazing team of professionals at MPTC. Anywhere from the scheduling and billing to the actual therapy itself, the team works together to care for your child like it’s their own. Their commitment to my child’s long-term health and well-being is unmatched, and the ability to go to one place for all the different care we needed made it much more manageable. I’m beyond grateful

My son completed therapy at MPTC. Kaye and the rest of the staff there helped him make quick progress with his speech issues. Everyone at MPTC was kind and engaging. My son actually enjoyed going to therapy.

For a bit of context, Spencer was born in February, 2020. At birth, she was whisked away to the NICU after discovering she was straining to breathe. Once we left the hospital, a series of medical complications continued, but due to the pandemic, there was no continuity of care. We continued to struggle to find out what was making her so sick and miserable, when we were referred to MPTC by Dr. Geisler at Life Smiles upon being seen for a potential tongue tie. Once we had Spencer evaluated by the team at MPTC, we finally felt like we had a team of people who truly cared about the health and wellbeing of our daughter. Not only did the team work with us on feeding techniques, but they helped us identify additional specialists to pull in because they were suspecting underlying and undiagnosed medical conditions that were contributing to her discomfort. Sure enough, Spencer was soon diagnosed with several IgE food allergies, FPIES, and EoE. Knowing these diagnoses helped the team better cater to Spencer's challenges which in turn gave them the ability to give us the tools and techniques to continue to help Spencer thrive at home. We continued to work with MPTC as Spencer was failing to meet or master milestones in other areas of development. Unfortunately, Spencer was later diagnosed with a rare, terminal disease called Sanfilippo Syndrome Type A. This genetic condition is often referred to as childhood Alzheimer's due to how it manifests from a neurodegenerative perspective. Spencer had a long journey to diagnosis, but I truly believe that MPTC's team played a big role in getting her diagnosed early. Not only did (and do) they treat Spencer, but they taught me what to do and look for. As Spencer continued to miss milestones, we started to notice regression, which we may not have noticed had we not known what to look for. It allowed us to seek out additional expertise and eventually led to a correct diagnosis long before most children with Sanfilippo are diagnosed. Working with MPTC is a team approach with providers who care for children and their families holistically. The providers meet weekly to review their patients as a team which allows cross-functional approaches to continue progress during all sessions. They provide guidance, support, and direction to families when they need it the most. Knowing that Spencer is in the care of people who know her and may catch changes in her brings peace of mind as we navigate everything that comes with raising a daughter with complex medical needs. We know that Spencer will continue to regress, but we are so glad to have her with MPTC to maintain as many skills for as long as possible. We would, and do, recommend MPTC to any family looking for support services for their children.
