Frequently Asked Questions About Our Physical Therapy
We want you to feel informed and confident in your care. Here are answers to questions about our approach, how the cash-based model works, and what makes our clinic unique in Washington County.
Do I need a referral to schedule an appointment at your clinic?
You do not need a physician referral to start physical therapy at our Hillsboro clinic. Oregon allows direct access, so you can book your first visit without extra steps, saving you time and hassle.
How is your clinic different from traditional physical therapy practices?
Each session is a full 60 minutes with Dr. Stokes, a Doctor of Physical Therapy. We do not use aides or techs, focusing on personal care that helps you recover faster and more completely.
Why do you operate as a cash-based clinic instead of accepting insurance?
Our cash-based model removes insurance limits, allowing us to provide thorough, one-on-one care. This supports better results, less wasted time, and no surprise bills for patients in Hillsboro and nearby areas.
What types of injuries and conditions do you treat at your clinic?
We help with orthopedic injuries, sports injuries, chronic pain, tendon pain, workplace and auto injuries, and post-surgical recovery. Our services support active adults, athletes, and youth in Washington County.
How do I pay for my sessions, and are package deals available?
Payment is due at the time of service. We accept credit cards, debit cards, and HSA or FSA cards. Package pricing is available for ongoing care, and we always provide clear, upfront pricing.
How soon can I get an appointment, and what is your cancellation policy?
We offer same or next-day appointments for most cases in Hillsboro. If you need to cancel, please notify us at least 24 hours in advance so we can offer your spot to another patient.
What can I expect during my first 60-minute physical therapy session?
You will receive a thorough assessment, hands-on treatment, and a clear plan. All care is one-on-one with Dr. Stokes, so you get focused attention and answers to your questions.
Where is your clinic located, and what areas do you serve?
Our clinic is at 333 South 1st Avenue in Hillsboro, near downtown and convenient to Cornelius, Forest Grove, North Plains, Aloha, Beaverton, and the wider Tualatin Valley region.
