Please use black ink on all forms.

Attendance Policy

Your success in Physical Therapy is dependent on regular attendance. There is often a wait of 2 to 6 weeks for new patients to start therapy, and I often have a waiting list of patients needing treatment. Please provide 24 hour notice if you are unable to attend. This gives me time to call those on the cancellation list.

Failed appointments or those cancelled after 24 hours will be charged a $50 cancellation fee. Repeated failures to attend will result in re-evaluation of your need for therapy. Emergencies or weather cancellations will not be charged the cancellation fee.

Please note – Insurance will not pay for you to see two different Physical Therapists on the same day. If you are receive PT at another office (for a separate condition), please do not schedule two PT visits on the same day.

Please help me to provide the best care possible for you and others.

I am in network with most BCBS and Medicare policies.
