At Centre de physiothérapie Royal, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Juliana frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapy Technologist in QC?

In Quebec, patients can typically access a Physiotherapy Technologist (Phys. T.) directly without a physician's referral, as this is considered a form of direct access. However, while a referral is not legally required to *see* a Phys. T., some private or extended health insurance plans may require a physician's referral for reimbursement purposes. Patients should verify their specific insurance policy requirements before their first appointment.

What is the difference between a Physiotherapist (Physiothérapeute) and a Physiotherapy Technologist (Technologue en physiothérapie) in Quebec?

In Quebec, a Physiothérapeute (Physiotherapist) holds a university master's degree in physiotherapy and is authorized to perform assessments, establish diagnoses, create treatment plans, and perform certain restricted activities if certified. A Technologue en physiothérapie (Phys. T.) holds a college-level (CEGEP) diploma and works under the supervision of a physiotherapist or physician. They apply prescribed treatment modalities, guide patients through exercises, and monitor progress but do not diagnose or independently develop treatment plans. Both professions are regulated by the Ordre professionnel de la physiothérapie du Québec (OPPQ).

How can I book an appointment at Centre de physiothérapie Royal?

What is Centre de physiothérapie Royal's appointment cancellation policy?

We understand that schedules can change unexpectedly. To ensure we can accommodate all our patients efficiently, we kindly request at least 24 hours' notice (or one business day) for any appointment cancellations or rescheduling. This allows us to offer the time slot to other patients who may be waiting for care. A fee may be charged for late cancellations or missed appointments without sufficient notice. Please contact our clinic as soon as possible if you need to make any changes to your appointment.

Is physiotherapy covered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

Generally, RAMQ does not cover physiotherapy services provided in private clinics. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket or use private insurance. Care received directly within a public hospital or CLSC might be covered if meeting specific criteria, but private outpatient physiotherapy services are usually not covered by RAMQ. Patients are advised to verify their eligibility with RAMQ and consult their private insurance plans for coverage options.
