WebPT Wins 2017 BBB Torch Awards for Ethics

Award recognizes businesses with a strong dedication to ethics, trust, transparency and integrity


PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwired - Apr 27, 2017) - WebPT, the leading rehab therapy software platform, was recently awarded the 2017 BBB Torch Award for Ethics by the Better Business Bureau Serving Greater Arizona. The company was one of five selected to receive the coveted award, which recognizes businesses that exemplify the BBB's mission and principles of upholding a fair and honorable marketplace.

Dr. Heidi Jannenga, WebPT's president and co-founder, credits the company's strong ethical practices to its culture- and people-first philosophy as well as its steadfast commitment to conscious capitalism. Since the company's inception in 2008, it has adhered to a deeper purpose of service -- one that goes beyond a simple mission statement. The company also relies on its core values to guide every action and business decision. 

"People are at the center of everything we do, and as such we've focused on creating a culture of trust and embracing a higher purpose that serves, engages and integrates the interests of all stakeholders -- from customers and employees to partners, investors and the community," Jannenga said. "Receiving the BBB Torch Awards for Ethics is truly a testament to our amazing team members, who uphold WebPT's people-first approach every day."

"These winners join a community of trustworthy businesses that understand how important trust, transparency and integrity are to business success," said Matthew Fehling, BBB President/CEO.

In addition to implementing a conscious capitalism methodology and maintaining a strong focus on ethics culture, WebPT places a strong emphasis on customer relationships. Beyond operating in a fair, honest, transparent and ethical manner, WebPT is committed to ensuring all customers have a seat at the table and a voice.

"One lesson I've learned as a business leader is that people matter most," Jannenga said. "Our purpose is to empower the rehab therapy community to achieve greatness in practice, and we constantly look for ways to support that -- beyond providing innovative software. We are deeply committed to our members, and we truly believe in the work they do. In fact, when we found out one of our customers was up for the BBB Torch Award for Ethics in Alabama, we submitted a letter of recommendation -- and we're proud to say Nesin Physical Therapy won."

"We have used WebPT since 2009, and not only do they provide a great web-based documentation platform, but they are dedicated to partnering with their clients to help their clinics grow, innovate and run more efficiently," said Janine Nesin, PT, DPT, OCS, and co-owner and CEO of Nesin Therapy Services. "We are excited to see them honored with the Torch Award for their service to customers, the rehabilitation industry, and their employees."

WebPT was named a category five winner (an honor reserved for companies with more than 150 employees). Four other local companies -- including Loud Rumor, Champs Family Automotive, Lucid Agency and Howard Air -- were also honored. All local honorees are now in the running for the BBB's International Torch Awards.
