To keep up with rapid population growth in Ascension Parish and an expanding patient load, Baton Rouge Physical Therapy-Lake is moving its Gonzales operation to a larger facility on La. 30. The Baton Rouge-based firm, which has seven locations in the Capital Region, has been at its current facility on La. 30 behind St. Elizabeth Hospital since 2001.
“We’re making the move to provide better coverage as the Gonzales community continues to expand,” says HR Director Theresa Lockwood. “We’d also like to add some wellness programs to our current services.”
The new facility will be at 1227 La. 30, less than a half mile from the current location. At 9,600 square feet, it will be the largest of the company’s seven locations. Renovation is underway on the building, which formerly housed Excel Engineering. The work is expected to be completed in time for a May relocation.
The new facility will include seven to eight treatment rooms, a gym and conference room for meetings and class instruction.
