Guidepost Pediatric Therapies and Educational Services - Wasilla, Alaska

Sandra & Mark Wilson

My son started with Guidepost Pediatrics back in July. After his 4month check up we were concerned he would need helmet therapy. I was referred to a different office where they were not going to be able to get him in until September (losing lots of valuable time to help correct these concerns.) I called around to different offices and found Guidepost. I spoke directly with Susan who stated that they would be able to get our kiddo in very soon. He was seen and evaluated by Dr. Jessica within a week of getting the referral. Our experience since has been absolutely wonderful! Susan puts a lot of work into making sure her staff have the tools needed to work with all the children they serve. She also puts a lot of work into keeping the office welcoming and clean. Walking into his PT office gives me a sense of calming and relief that I don't often feel. Since starting here he has grown and acquired so many skills. All of the staff including Ms. Susan get excited when he meets new skills, he loves the kudos and attention. He gets excited about going in and seeing all of the staff!

Not only has this office found appointments that work around my work schedule, but got my son in so quickly, with no wait list. The therapists are also truly wonderful! I currently work with Miss Jean, OTLR and she has made my child comfortable with her so quickly, when he does not really do well with new people. He's been seeing her for about 3-4 weeks, and already he's doing more than he was before we started coming here.
And Miss Amy, she is truly a God sent angel. Not only does she care about my child and seeing his abilities while striving to help improve them, she cares about the parent as well. I've yet to meet the other therapists here yet, but if they're anything like the 2 I've worked with so far, they're nothing short of amazing. This office has truly been a blessing with the development of my son. Thank you!

So far so good. Our family has appreciated a clean, friendly, professional & engaging environment. OT is definitely helpful for unique needs. We have been blessed with accurate records. Susan & Mary Ann have servant’s hearts. Looking forward to even more progress.

After only a few short months, we left Guidepost Pediatrics. Maryann our therapist was wonderful. But Susan (the owner) was clearly about her own agenda & was having very loud construction done during appointments. When we asked her to reschedule, she said that it shouldn’t be much longer. After three sessions in a row of this, we decided to leave because nothing was being accomplished. What was interesting, was that Maryann left right when we did. We now have been with Back Country Therapeutics for almost two years. They have helped us so much. My Son’s needs get met. They offer aquatic therapy, equine therapy, O.T. & P.T. As well as speech therapy. Every parent that I have seen there, has given very positive feedback. There is no high turnover rate of therapists; so your child can have a positive, trusting relationship for years.

Man, where to begin. Guidepost has been an amazing facility, great interaction with my autistic son and daughter, it’s a great place. It’s a very family friendly, the decorations and the equipment they have on hand is awesome! All amazing for my son and others needs. They always handle high intense situations amazing too. My 3 year old son has been going here for two years now. I’ve been super happy with all the therapist here. As well, my daughter was dealing with some hard events in her life and she was acting out because of that. Now she is just amazing and handles her feeling so so so well now. OT is great for that as well. The owner is absolutely amazing and very professional women. I highly recommend GuidePost! Guidepost is a great place for your special needs or non-special needs kids.

First thing first are kids are so important to us and need therapy for a reason or other it’s very sad that Susan the owner is so unprofessional and treat her clients very wrong and stuff no wonder why they don’t stay I’ve moved from other state and didn’t want my son to be move around and around and instead she blow up everything and treat us very unfairly she has such amazing stuff Brenna who knew how to schedule and treat the parents so amazing she has Miss Katie who is so amazing but because Susan is very unprofessional and so rude she is denied my son service because she needs new patient because the intake she make more money she a money hungry person doesn’t not care about the kids or needs please if there one thing that I can say please don’t take your kids there playful
Leaning is amazing any other’s place is amazing and you’ll get your child the help they need and no drama ALL OF THIS WAS DUE FOR Scheduling I wasn’t asking for a lot just help but I won’t still quiet, I will let everyone know how much tears I’ve cried because of this lady and the lies she called and said to me she a manipulated person please as a parent look for a place your child deserves the help not your money or insurance funny I’ve never was late to one appointment only canceled because my son didn’t need to see so many other people once again Susan give out so much false information

Susan and her team of therapists are AMAZING! I have two kiddos in PT, OT and speech and they LOVE going to their sessions. Susan is very supportive and goes above and beyond our expectations. We love our new Guidepost Pediatrics family. Many more sessions to come to get our kids on track! We couldn’t do it without you.

Guidepost Pediatrics is a fantastic addition to our community. Susan, the owner, has done a remarkable job bringing in highly qualified specialists to Alaska in an area where we have historically lacked services.

My daughter loves going to her appointments and looks forward to them every week. They’ve done a wonderful job with her including offering me ideas and guidance to use at home. I highly recommend Guidepost for speech, OT, and PT.
