I know I need physical therapy and I have insurance. Can I just call for an appointment?
If you are a Medicare patient, you must have a current dated prescription from your doctor for physical therapy. Your diagnosis, the treatment requested plus the frequency and duration of the treatment to be given must be included on the prescription.

In most cases we treat patients who are referred by doctors. If you feel you could benefit from physical therapy, call or visit your doctor first and ask for a physical therapy referral to treat your problem. If the doctor doesn't know what type of therapy or therapies will be beneficial for you, it is best for them to write a prescription "physical therapy, evaluate and treat." If we need more specific details written on the prescription, we can request them from your doctor.
Treatments will vary depending on your particular needs. However a typical treatment is made up of one or more sessions, each approximately one hour long. The number of sessions will be determined after your initial evaluation. Your physical therapist will be able to judge how much treatment time and how many days of treatment you will need.
