BINA Expos, as well as a new and exciting variety of companies, facilities,
devices and therapies.

centers, LTAC, vent and on-site dialysis units.

Representatives of companies for high tech rehab devices,

vision program and specialized therapists such as MEDEK.

scientists from preeminent facilities and hospitals such as NYU-Rusk, Mount
