Physical Therapy at CORE®
CORE® Physical Therapy and Spine is about you and your needs. Our goal is to make your time with us as comfortable and productive as possible. Here are a few reminders we would like to share with you prior to your first appointment:
• You should plan to arrive a little early-approximately 10 to 15 minutes before your appointment time. Check the back of your prescription for location maps. You may want to call the clinic for specific driving instructions from home or work if you not familiar with the area.
• Your first visit will involve a thorough history and evaluation to assure that our therapists gather all the information needed to design an effective treatment plan. So please schedule at least 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Wear or bring loose-fitting comfortable clothes. If we need to examine the lower extremities, wear or bring shorts. If we need to examine your shoulder, please bring or wear a sleeveless shirt.
• Also, bring your physician's prescription for therapy and your insurance cards or paperwork.
• Following your first visit, your therapist will communicate with you and your physician regarding your treatment plan.
All of us at CORE® Physical Therapy and Spine are dedicated to meeting your special needs or concerns. Please call us with any questions you might have or stop by to meet us in person prior to your initial appointment. We look forward to meeting you.
