What to Expect
What will my initial evaluation look like?
Your initial evaluation will be with the Physical Therapist who will perform one on one testing including gait, pain, range of motion and also pre-op and post-op evaluations. Testing is done one on one with the physical therapist and will serve as a starting point to plan your individually tailored overall physical therapy short and long term goals. You will also be asked to complete a new patient packet and questionnaire so please allow time to complete these forms and bring a list of your medications.
What should I wear?
Wear general gym attire such as sneakers and loose fitting clothing depending on the part of the body that will be evaluated and treated. For example, post knee replacement patients should wear shorts or other loose clothing allowing easy access to the knee.
