Grateful for a good place to recover. Great care, friendly faces, positive attitudes, super showers, and marvelous meals! I always got prompt response for help and answers to my questions. I was in a shared room but I had a great roommate. The therapists were the best. I had a great experience during my time of need.

I was a resident at La Mesa a few days ago and I wanted to give a shout out to Mahogany and the dietary team. The food was delicious and I could tell they worked hard to make the food as good as can be. Everyone in the facility was nice and helpful. Thank you
