 How
can we help you help your patients? At Lakeshore Sports Physical Therapy, we cultivate
collaborative professional relationships with referring physicians for the benefit
of the patient. Our therapists are experienced and engage in thoughtful clinical
decision-making - keeping you informed when the situation warrants, but minimizing
extraneous communication.Communication of Progress Upon completion of the initial examination, our findings of impairments and functional limitations are communicated in a timely, typed letter. If the patient is progressing as expected, you will receive a follow up letter every four weeks or upon return visit to your office. All communications are formatted for simple comparison of the patients status. Evidence-Based Treatment Approach We utilize an eclectic treatment approach, combining manual therapy, prescriptive exercise and education to speed recovery and prevent recurrence. We consistently refer to the literature and consider the evidence when planning our treatment and utilize objective measures to gauge progress. We track patient outcomes on an ongoing basis and compare our performance to external and internal benchmarks.

Urgent Care For your patients requiring urgent care, we offer appointments scheduled within one business day to maximize the patients response to treatment and reduce recovery times. Appointments We expect full participation from our patients in their recovery and respect the time they are committing to their care. Each of your patients will receive our undivided attention during their visit - appointments are never overlapped and are appropriate in length, usually 45 to 60 minutes. We make every effort to accommodate our patients schedules with appointments available from 7:30 AM to 8:30 PM most days and the availability of Saturday visits. Individualized Instruction In order to promote carryover of recommended therapy and exercise at home, we have utilize a unique exercise instructional system utilizing written, audio and visual cues that can be accessed from a home computer.

Patients without access to the Internet receive individualized written and pictured instructions. Transitional Exercise Intruction We support each of our patients in implementing positive lifestyle changes that include regular exercise for fitness & health.
