Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapist in ON?

In Ontario, you can typically see a Physiotherapist directly without a doctor's referral. This is known as direct access. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement of physiotherapy services. It is strongly recommended that you check with your insurance provider to understand their specific requirements before your first appointment.

Is there parking available at or near Durham Bone and Joint Specialists?

Paid parking is available in a nearby lot. Street parking is also available; however, please be sure to check for any time restrictions or parking regulations.

Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?

Definitely. A key aspect of physiotherapy is not just treating current problems but also preventing future ones. A Physiotherapist can assess your movement, identify potential weaknesses or imbalances that could lead to injury, and provide you with a personalized program of exercises and strategies. This proactive approach is beneficial for athletes, individuals with physically demanding jobs, or anyone looking to maintain long-term musculoskeletal health and avoid recurring pain.

Approximately how many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

The number of physiotherapy sessions needed varies greatly depending on individual factors. After your initial assessment, Jeeten Mistry will provide a better estimate of the number and frequency of sessions required to achieve your goals. Your progress will be regularly reviewed, and the treatment plan adjusted as needed.

What should I expect during my first physiotherapy appointment?

Your first appointment will involve a thorough assessment. You'll discuss your condition's history and your overall health with Jeeten Mistry, who will then conduct physical tests to evaluate your movement and strength. The goal is to fully understand your condition to create a tailored treatment plan. You may also receive some initial exercises or hands-on care.

Is physiotherapy covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

OHIP generally does not cover physiotherapy services in private clinics. Publicly funded physiotherapy is available in certain situations (e.g., post-hospitalization, for specific age groups) through specific programs, but eligibility criteria are strict and there may be waitlists. Check your private insurance coverage; many plans offer significant coverage for physiotherapy services in private clinics.

What is Durham Bone and Joint Specialists's appointment cancellation policy?

We kindly request at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling. This allows us to offer the appointment to other patients. A fee may be charged for cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice or missed appointments.
