Good Shepherd Rehabilitation is a not-for-profit rehabilitation network headquartered in Allentown, Pennsylvania, with a legacy spanning over 115 years. Founded in 1908 by John and Estella Raker as the Good Shepherd Home to care for children with disabilities and senior citizens, the organization has grown into a comprehensive healthcare provider serving the region.
The network operates more than 60 locations across eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey, employing 2,100 associates.

Extremely wonderful experience. The whole staff of doctors, nurses, nurse aids, psychologist, physical and occupational therapist were wonderful. They did not just assist with my physical needs but also my mental and emotional as well. From the workouts and exercises for making meaningful progress to understanding that things will be better in the future. The care and discharge team also worked to help me with organizing and planning my outpatient along with financial information. I truly am thankful for all their help and support during a rough and tough situation. I highly recommend this facility.

My husband was in Good Shepherd Hospital Center Valley recently to rehab after a fall and hip dislocation. This beautiful facility is top notch! The whole team had meetings to report on his progress and kept me in the loop too! It's immaculate & state of the art. Best part is that I was able to bring our dog to visit and that helped keep his spirits up! I would definitely recommend Good Shepherd Hospital Center Valley!! Thanks again for getting him back up on his feet! Also they have 2 hours of family training with PT OT that made me feel comfortable about bringing him home. Thanks everyone! 👍👏

My husband Ely Rodriguez had a stroke in the beginning of June and I feel like I made the best decision by sending my husband to Good Shepherd. The staff were amazing! His caseworker Janis kept us informed with his care and any questions or help we needed she was there for us. The doctors, nurses and all his therapists were outstanding. He was well taken care of and I felt comfortable that he will get the help he needed. We want to give a special thank you to his therapists Logan, Lindsey, Rachel, Alaina, Jordan and Lauren for being absolutely amazing and being my husbands biggest supporters. Rachel and Lindsey came to our home and made sure he was safe and everything was setup properly. The level of care at Good Shepherd is top notch and we are so grateful that he got the help he needed and will still continue to go to outpatient therapy with Good Shepherd. We will definitely recommend Good Shepherd!

After the accident our grandson was severely injured. He came to Good Shepherd in bad shape both physically and emotionally! The kindness that all the staff at Good Shepherd Rehab showed him was, I believe, one of the greatest reasons he made such a wonderful recovery! I can’t say enough about how grateful we all are! Good Shepherd is filled with staff that are extremely knowledgeable as therapists knowing exactly what my grandson needed. The state-of-the-art equipment that was used also was a huge benefit in the dramatic improvement we noted over just a few weeks! I wish there were better words to express our deep gratitude for all the care and kindness that was shown our grandson. We will forever be grateful!!!

I was more than happy with my stay. The facilty, the food, and the therapy are excellent. The environment is almost harmonious in the staff groups. Very nice and makes the patients willing to give their all to recovery. But all things are not equal. When I ring the bell for assistance, to be put off for and hour or 2 is very concerning. Taking a laxative make this unfair. At this point I would like to call out a few staff for their warm and timely response, even when I didn't like the answer. Very professional while being loving and caring. PT _ Jess and Steph. NURSES _ Sarah and Lauren are superior.
