No! Florida is a "direct access" state for physical therapy, meaning that we can work together for up to 30 days without a physician's referral. In many cases, we can solve your problem within that time frame and without you ever needing to see a physician. If your problem persists longer than 30 days, we can simply get your PT treatment plan signed by a physician, or continue with wellness/performance training without any referral needed.

For our Strength & Conditioning, Performance, and Injury Prevention services, no physician referral is ever needed.

The full duration of your treatment time with us will be spent 1-on-1 with an experienced Doctor of Physical Therapy who has advanced Board Certification as well as advanced training in multiple different evaluation and treatment techniques. You will be the center of attention each and every visit and we will work tirelessly using our knowledge, skills, and passion to ensure that you get the results that you deserve.

Rather than recommending a cookie-cutter "3 times per week for 4 weeks" schedule that interrupts your life, we consider all of the variables of your unique situation and work with you to develop an individualized plan that truly works for you. Spoiler alert: our patients generally need far less visits compared to those of a "traditional" PT clinic.

Great question! Large, "in-network" PT clinics (PT mills) have to negotiate with insurance companies and agree to be paid a lower price per visit to be considered "in-network" with that company. Those clinics make up for that by trying to squeeze multiple patients in at the same time so that they can bill multiple visits simultaneously. That means that instead of your PT being focused on you during your treatment time, their attention is split between 2, 3, or even 4 patients! With these absurd productivity requirements, the PT's energy is often drained and they pay more attention to their computer to stay caught up on documentation than they do to their actual patients. Furthermore, since treatments from PT's and PTA's (assistants) are paid exactly the same amount by the insurance company, these clinics often hire PTA's, who usually have far less education and skill, to carry out the majority of the treatment sessions since the clinic can pay them a lower salary than a PT.

Being "out-of-network" allows us to be different. To be better. To focus on the unique needs of each patient and put our heart and soul into getting you better.
