Pappas | OPT Physical Therapy

Safe. Accessible. Reliable.

We are OPEN and Ready to help during this difficult time.

Why:

At Pappas Physical and Hand Therapy, our primary goal at all times is the health and safety of our patients and employees.

While we are still open for essential physical therapy services, we are also offering virtual physical therapy appointments for patients who are unable to leave their home or need help with services that may be considered unessential by current government guidance.

By remaining open, we are helping patients in pain reduce their chances of requiring an emergency room visit, as well as providing triaging musculoskeletal or pain-related issues, with the hopes of lessening the burden on ER and critical care units that currently need all their resources to handle the COVID-19 pandemic.

Here’s what we are doing to keep you safe.

Virtual Appointments:
We also are offering alternative options – virtually – for continuing or starting rehab for those who must remain at home. If you are in pain or have had to postpone a scheduled surgery, we can help you with pain management and functional strategies. Our board-certified and doctorate-trained physical therapists are available to meet virtually through a HIPAA-compliant online visit that is secure and easy to use. If technology is not your thing, we’ll walk you through it over the phone.

Additionally, some health plans are now covering virtual physical therapy. Click below to learn more
