What To Expect
From Your First Appointment

Your initial evaluation will usually last about 45 minutes. Your appointment will involve 1-on-1 time with your physical or occupational therapist. Some patients find it helpful to wear comfortable clothes they can easily move around in, although specific clothing is not necessary. If you are seeking treatment for a specific body part (for example, your shoulder or knee), it might be helpful to wear layers so that you can remove clothing to allow access to that body part. 

​

Please bring the following items with you to your first appointment:

• Insurance card

• Form of identification

• Method of payment (check, cash, or credit card) if you have a copay

• Physician's referral if you have one

• List of current medications (if not fully listed on the intake form)

• List of any questions you have for your therapist

• Comfortable clothing and shoes
