Default Bent Wheel

I've discovered I have a bent rear wheel. Can anyone recommend a VERY good shop that can straighten it?

Oh I'm pretty sure it's from impact althought not by me. No real visible damage, but a fellow driver could see it out of round on the road, and I can feel a little vibration in the seat.

They will dismount & mount & balance also, which takes "THE SCRATCH FACTOR" out of the problem also.
