Communication of Progress

Upon completion of the initial examination, our findings of impairments and functional limitations are communicated in a timely, typed letter. If the patient is progressing as expected, you will receive a follow up letter every four to six weeks or upon return visit to your office. All communications are formatted for simple comparison of the patients status.  We only request certification of the plan of care when required by the insurance company.

Evidence-Based Treatment Approach

We are lifelong learners, focused on developing the expertise of our staff and incorporating a comprehensive treatment approach, combining manual therapy, prescriptive exercise and education to speed recovery and prevent recurrence.  Multiple therapists have been awarded advanced or board certification in orthopedic and neurologic physical therapy, and our specialties include:

We consistently refer to the literature and consider the evidence when planning our treatment and utilize objective measures to gauge progress. We track patient outcomes on an ongoing basis and compare our performance to external and internal benchmarks. 

Urgent Care

Appointments

Each of your patients will receive one-on-one consultation and treatment during their visit. We make every effort to accommodate our patients schedules with appointments available from 7 AM to 7:30 PM most days and the availability of Saturday visits.
