What Should I Do To Prepare For My Appointment?
- Please arrive 15-20 minutes early for your first appointment.
- It is a good idea to make a list of questions that you want to discuss on your first visit.
- Bring a copy of your insurance card and a photo ID with you.
- Please call our office at (920)233-8739 to verify your insurance benefits beforehand.
- Have in writing key past medical history, previous treatments, current medications, and other important information.
- List out signs and symptoms that can be of importance to the therapist. What has been hurting or bothering you? For how long? What is it preventing you from doing?
What To Expect At Your First Appointment
- When you arrive at our office, you will register at the front desk. They will help you with the insurance process so you can focus on getting better as soon as possible.
- After that, you will have your initial evaluation with one of our physical therapists. We will ask about your medical history, present pain, problem, or injury during your evaluation. Try to be as honest as possible; open communication helps us better understand your issue and find the best solution for you!
- During your appointment, your movement, strength, coordination, and other factors will be evaluated. Our goal is to assist you, so please let our therapist know if anything hurts or bothers you during the examination!
- Following your evaluation, our physical therapist will recommend and prepare a personalized treatment plan to ensure the fastest recovery and best results. On the first day, some treatment or exercise may be performed to get you started on the road to recovery. During your next visit, however, you will be able to fully work on your treatment plan.
- Our therapist will document their findings and treatment plan, which will be given to your referring physician or another medical expert of your choice.
- You will plan a series of visits at the front desk when your first appointment is completed. The number of treatment sessions needed will be determined by the recommendation of our therapist and will be discussed with you at your first appointment.
We have a lot of convenient appointment times, but peak times can fill up quickly, so plan ahead as much as possible.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at any time if you have any questions. We want to make sure you are comfortable so you can experience a full recovery.
