Questions About Our Services
We are a cash-based practice, which means we don't work directly with insurance companies. This allows us to provide longer appointment times (60 minutes every session), personalized 1-on-1 care, and treatment plans focused entirely on your goals—not insurance restrictions. Many clients find that the quality of care and faster results make it a worthwhile investment. We can provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Every appointment at The Obstacle Doc is a full 60 minutes of dedicated 1-on-1 time with your physical therapist—even follow-up visits. Unlike traditional clinics where you might see a therapist for 15-20 minutes, you'll receive expert attention for the entire hour, allowing us to thoroughly address your running mechanics, strength deficits, and recovery needs.
No referral is needed! North Carolina is a direct access state, which means you can see a physical therapist without a doctor's referral. You can schedule your free consultation directly with us and begin your recovery right away. If we determine that you need additional medical evaluation, we'll guide you accordingly.
