Twenty years ago, ARC Physical Therapy+ opened its Independence clinic, one of the first in our growing network. The Independence team has built a reputation for working hard, having fun, and going above and beyond for patients. Serving Independence, Blue Springs, Raytown, Kansas City, and Sugar Creek, this challenge-driven group never backs down from a goal—and strives to exceed expectations. Congratulations to the Independence clinic on 20 years of being a catalyst of change!
