With our PT's on staff doing wheelchair assessments all the time, we have found that Care Medical is a preferred provider of wheelchairs and stands behind them.  I just bought one myself from them for my Dad.

Todd Wirtz is out rep.  He is based out of northern Cincinnati but is up in Dayton a lot.

Help, fellow providers!!!
 
We have one heckuva time getting good wheelchair repairs!!!  Disregard the cost!!!  We cannot find a business or a person who really knows how to repair wheelchairs!!
 
Anyone have suggestions????  We live in southwest Ohio and have used: Advanced Medical; Tri-State; Stateline.  It is like pulling teeth to get them to do repairs.
 
SECONDLY, the past few wheelchairs we have purchased do NOT hold up to use!!!!   The armrests come apart; the footrests come off; the handles soon wobble.  We need something sturdier than what we have been able to purchase!!!
 
Even more than a solid company, I would settle for a solid technician!!!  (We loved a salesperson, John Stevens from Advanced Medical, but he moved!!!)
 
PLEASE HELP!!
