Can my physical therapist diagnose me?

Your physical therapist will do a thorough evaluation that consists of a detailed history and comprehensive physical examination when you come for your initial session at TheraSport Physical Therapy. The initial evaluation establishes the severity of your injury or illness and helps establish the source of your symptoms and the factors contributing to your condition.

Physical therapists routinely collaborate with physicians to provide confirmation or potential contradictions to a diagnosis to ensure that your diagnosis is correct and that your treatment plan is appropriate.
