Results Driven, Not Cost Driven
Schrier PT provides care best suited to patients, not insurance companies. Many PT providers set up their practice to minimize costs in response to the continued pressure from insurance companies. One of the most common industry-wide reactions to this pressure is to Reduce the time with the physical therapist and increase the number of patients per hour which reduces one on one time with the therapist. Schrier PT recognizes that this can greatly impact the quality of care and the patient experience.
- At Schrier PT Patients don’t need to worry about being passed off to an unlicensed aide. Patients will work one on one with our skilled, licensed practitioners on EVERY visit.
- Schrier PT provides your plan of care based on our professional judgment and best-practices, not insurance company endorsed "cookie-cutter" protocols.

Up To Date (Not Out Of Date) Evidence Based Treatment and Industry Best Practices
The most advanced treatment protocols are based on the latest research. Unfortunately, it’s not a simple matter to take the latest research, train the therapists, and implement updated practices at the clinical level. In fact, most physical therapy providers have no documented process for updating treatment practices at the clinical level. This can lead to a wide variety of treatment approaches and potential outcomes. At Schrier PT, we’ve fixed that. Here’s how:
-
Schrier PT has a Senior Research Therapist on staff dedicated to review research as it is released
-
monthly by major medical journals and other peer reviewed articles. The findings are documented, and then integrated at the clinical level under the supervision of our clinical director.
-
Our monthly finding reports are archived on our website, and delivered to our network of professionals and patients via email.
-
This innovative approach fosters a special clinical environment best suited to keeping all of our therapists on the same page using the latest proven techniques.
