Your written assessment will be completed and forwarded to your referring physician within 24 hours.
Follow-up visits may be scheduled at the conclusion of your evaluation visit as prescribed by your physician.
Follow-up Visits
Follow-up visits, generally shorter in length than your intial evaluation visit may be conducted with your therapist and / or additional staff including physical therapist assistants, or other staff as necessary.
Your course of therapy includes patient education during which you learn about your diagnosis and its treatment, instruction in an individualized home exercise program, review and progression of your home program, application of hands-on techniques, and use of physical agents to address your symptoms and underlying causes.
Your follow-up visits include periodic reassessment of your progress and revision of your program goals and plan of care. This information will also be forwarded to the referring source.
