The staff at Mobilis are incredibly friendly and helpful. They were flexible with scheduling a stair lift install and supportive of the families needs. They did a great job installing and overall just great to work with! Could not be more pleased!

The crew at Mobilis has always been extremely helpful when friends and family have needed assistance in the aftermath of serious medical events and when loved ones faced difficult circumstances at or near the end of their lives.
Colleen, Trish and Leah are awesome. They helped me select proper equipment to assist my husband in regaining mobility in our home after total knee replacement, and they guided my family through the process of transitioning my dad home from a rehabilitation facility after a series of major surgeries following a traumatic injury. The Mobilis staff also recommended simple

The Mobilis folks were quick to respond to my request, knew just what I needed (helped me with medical terms), and made sure I was satisfied with my purchase. Would definitely recommend the Mobilis team for medical supply needs. Thank you!

This company is a ripoff. My aunt hired them to install a handicap shower and the installer had no idea how to install it. She currently has half a completed shower in her bathroom and these con artists want more money to fix it.

FYI! Do not go here if you have a medicare advantage plan or medicare replacement or medicaid. They do not take them!!! If you have,straight medicare and cash they will help you. If not they will literally tell you to get out and not make any attempt to help you. Them being the only place in Council Bluffs that has medical equipment and them only taking straight medicare is a greedy ploy. It's disguisting.
