Doylestown Sports Medicine Center has specialized in providing out-patient physical therapy since 1986. Our staff consists of Physical Therapists and Physical Therapy Assistants specializing in manual therapy and women's health issues.

Doylestown Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine strives to provide a rehabilitation environment where each patient can achieve their personal fitness goals in a safe and timely manner. People injured in an accident (work or auto), athletes, senior citizens and weekend warriors all benefit from our high-quality therapy services, allowing a speedy return to work, sport or daily life. Further, we encourage the community at large to take seminars at the Center to improve their general health.

A licensed therapist evaluates all patients upon their first visit. This evaluation establishes a baseline to measure and track progress and includes medical history, history of condition to be treated, previous treatment or testing, evaluation and assessment of body area to be treated, discussion of the patient's personal goals, plan of care, and education on their condition. The therapist and patient then decide on a mutually convenient treatment session schedule. We are committed to providing convenient day, evening and weekend appointments designed to accommodate busy lifestyles, and eliminate lengthy "pre-appointment" waits.
