Jim Harvey, MSPT, MSA
Founded by local physical therapist Jim Harvey in 2003, our practice began as Great Lakes Therapy House Calls. Before establishing his own practice, Jim worked as a staff physical therapist at Munson Medical Center in Traverse City.
During his tenure at Munson, Jim determined there was a need in the area to provide comprehensive, in-home therapy. Venturing into private practice was an exciting move, and proved to be beneficial for patients unable or uninterested in clinic-based rehab.
Having established a niche in home therapy delivery, Jim decided the time was right to expand the scope of his services. With a unique vision to provide a complete continuum of rehab care, Great Lakes Home Healthcare was established.
Both House Calls and Home Healthcare provide physical, occupational and speech therapies, with Home Healthcare additionally featuring skilled nursing, social work and home health aide assistance.
The Great Lakes family has grown to include 2 therapy clinics and almost 50 employees. Through our enthusiasm, compassion and expertise, we have proudly helped thousands of patients to live and feel better.
