About Amanda Holt

Why We Started DriveRx

After years of working in the large hospital systems and in conjunction with other driving schools, we realized that the only way to be able to offer the highest quality services at the most affordable price was to do it on our own. Being a combined private practice and fully licensed driving school allows us to offer the full spectrum of clinical driving rehabilitation services, assuring that you have consistency throughout the process. We pride ourselves on being able to offer a more personalized approach while affording our clients the adequate time and support they need during an often nerve-racking process.
