Aptus employs approximately 90 clinical and administrative staff, which include physical therapists and assistants, occupational therapists and assistants, speech-language pathologists and assistants, rehabilitation technicians, administrative support staff, community educators, and management.
Aside from our outstanding success in treating our patients what sets us apart?
Aptus is a privately held company based in McAllen, Texas, Aptus Therapy Services was founded by Martha and Dennis Houghton in 1996, whom themselves are licensed physical therapists.
Martha Houghton, with her pioneering spirit, started APTUS and together she and her husband, Dennis, both physical therapists, provide an example for all to follow. Their dedication to their patients, employees and the surrounding communities is unsurpassable. Through their generosity and love for people countless lives are impacted. Truly, changing the quality of lives, isn’t that what it is all about? That’s what makes APTUS one of the BEST!
How Can We Help You?
We use a multidisciplinary team approach to industrial rehab: we’ve brought together physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech language pathologists to provide the most efficient, effective treatment possible for our patients.
We have had outstanding results in treating children who suffer from ADD, ADHD, and Autism.
Exchange in Abundance is what we believe every patient deserves.
Aptus believes in going above and beyond for their patients when it comes to their experience with our facilities. We understand that getting better isn’t simply about going through the motions of therapy but it is also about embodying a new outlook in mind, body and spirit in order to receive successful outcomes with our therapy.
