Print the patient registration form, complete it, and bring it with you to your first appointment.
This form collects your contact, emergency contact, insurance, injury, and previous therapy information.
A few simple steps can make your first visit smoother.
Please arrive 15 minutes early for your first appointment. If you have not completed forms in advance, arrive at least 25 minutes early.
Bring your insurance card, photo ID, and calendar so we can schedule visits around the times you need.
Make a list of questions, symptoms, current medications, medical history, and previous treatments to discuss with your therapist.
Your first visit is designed to understand your needs and create a clear path forward.
When you arrive, you will register at the front desk. Our team will handle the insurance paperwork so you can focus on getting better as early as possible. Please call ahead to verify your insurance benefits.
You will meet with a physical therapist who will ask about your medical history, current pain, illness, or injury. Your therapist will assess movement, strength, and coordination. Being open and honest helps us understand your problem and find the best solution.
Based on your evaluation, your physical therapist will recommend a unique treatment plan focused on helping you recuperate as quickly as possible while achieving substantial results. You may or may not receive treatment on the first day; subsequent visits include a full therapy session.
Before you leave, the front desk will help schedule the remainder of your sessions. The number of sessions needed is determined by your therapist and discussed during your first appointment. Your therapist can also provide findings and the treatment plan to your referring physician or another medical professional you choose.
We want you to feel comfortable as you get back to normal. Contact Comprehensive Physical Therapy any time with questions.
