Welcome to Rehab Heartthrobs!

We are the inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation team from UCLA West Valley Medical Center—physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists dedicated to helping our patients recover after heart disease, stroke, surgery, and critical illness.

Every day, we witness incredible resilience as patients take their first steps, regain independence, relearn everyday activities, and reconnect with the people they love. Those moments remind us why heart health matters.

We're proud to support the American Heart Association's mission to improve cardiovascular health, advance lifesaving research, and give more families the opportunity for healthier tomorrows.

Thank you for supporting the Rehab Heartthrobs. Every step, every donation, and every heartbeat makes a difference.
