What to Expect at Your Visit

If you have already filled out the forms, we recommend you arrive 10 minutes before your appointment. If you haven’t filled out your forms yet, no need to worry – just allow yourselves a few extra minutes prior to your appointment to fill them out. We ask our patients to bring completed patient forms, insurance card, driver’s license, any referral or script from your doctor or health care provider, and method of payment.

We accept all major insurance plans and we will assist you with verifying coverage with your insurance carrier before treatment. We’ll answer all of your insurance questions and explain our claim procedures, so you can focus on getting the treatment you need.

*When checking your coverage, please note that our Perryville and Altenburg clinics are in-network through Perry County Memorial Hospital. Our Ste. Genevieve and Bloomsdale clinics are in-network through Ste. Genevieve County Memorial Hospital.

We accept cash, check, debit card, and credit card. We are happy to discuss payment plan options as well. It is our policy that payment is made at the time of service. Your insurance benefits will be determined before your second visit, and you will be informed of what, if any, payment is necessary on that date.

Your initial physical therapy evaluation will typically last 60-90 minutes. Follow-up treatment sessions typically last between 45-90 minutes depending on your condition and treatment plan. The length of your session and the number of sessions will be based on your specific needs and your physician's recommendation and your therapist will discuss this with you.

During your initial evaluation, one of our licensed physical therapists will do a thorough review and evaluation of your medical history for the issue that brought you in as well as discuss your expectations and goals for your physical therapy. Your therapist will then perform a thorough physical examination and perform any necessary tests to help determine the best course of treatment. Your therapist will create a custom plan for you, and you will begin your therapy at your first visit. The therapist will provide you with a home exercise program to complete outside of the clinic that will assist with and quicken your recovery process.
