What do I need for my first visit?

First, we will need to gather information about your medical history and insurance information for billing.  For your convenience, please print and fill out the following forms, and present them to the front desk when you arrive for your first office visit. If you are unable to bring the completed forms with you, please arrive 15 minutes early for your first appointment to leave time to fill out your paperwork.  Beginning your physical therapy appointment on time will ensure adequate time for a thorough evaluation by your physical therapist.

Bring your insurance card, a referral from your physician (only needed for Medicaid and Medicare), and notes or diagnostic reports from other providers that may be helpful to your physical therapist.
