Direct Access

Did You Know You Can See a Physical Therapist Without a Referral?

Not everyone knows you can go directly to your physical therapist if you are dealing with pain or an injury. It doesn’t matter if you’re dealing with an old or new problem. In all 50 states, you can schedule a visit with one of our therapists to get help sooner than later.

In the medical community, Direct Access is the ability to see a physical therapist when you want to without getting permission from your physician or medical practitioner.

Physical therapists routinely assess and treat patients without a physician’s recommendation. You can call us directly at Maximum Rehabilitation Services in Chicago & Evergreen Park, IL and Munster, IN, and we’ll schedule your appointment today! Direct Access eliminates wasting your time for the appointment to see a doctor, then the delays in getting a referral to physical therapy and waiting for an appointment to see the therapist.

Another benefit of seeing your physical therapist immediately is the cost savings. Beyond the cost of copayments to see your physician or being sent to a specialist paying another copay and finally getting sent to physical therapy, you can save money and see our team directly.
