Patient Info

  • First Visit

    Your Physiotherapist will do an assessment and identify the cause of your injury. A treatment plan will be developed and therapy will start on day 1.

    Please bring:

    • BC Care Card
    • Extended Health Insurance Card or Policy information
    • Doctor’s referral if you have one
    • Diagnostic imaging reports if you have (X-ray, Ultrasound, MRI)

    Please note if you have not been into the clinic in the past 3 months, or if you are coming in for a different injury, an Initial Assessment booking is required for the Physiotherapist to address the new body part, or to re-assess the pre-existing injury.

    A doctor’s referral is not required to receive physiotherapy treatment, however some insurance plans do require this to cover the cost of your visit. Check with your insurance provider prior to starting treatment if you are unsure.

    Important: Please note that even with direct billing, you may need to pay the full amount out of pocket if there are issues with your insurer’s online services or if your policy doesn’t qualify for direct billing. Since only you can access the details of your policy it’s important to understand your coverage and eligibility, including whether a physician’s prescription is required for reimbursement.

  • Direct Billing

    We are pleased to offer direct billing to over 40 different insurance companies!
