Working Closely With Referring Physicians
Dublin Family Physical Therapy works closely with physicians and care teams throughout Central Ohio. We regularly receive referrals from multiple physicians affiliated with Cleveland Clinic, Ohio ENT & Allergy Physicians, Central Ohio Primary Care, OhioHealth Physical Medicine/Rehabilitation, and OhioHealth WorkHealth.
These ongoing referral relationships support communication between Tim and the referring provider regarding evaluation findings, patient progress, and treatment planning when appropriate. Our goal is to ensure that physical therapy remains coordinated with the patient’s broader medical care.
