Where patients leak

Common gaps in Kansas City physical therapy marketing

  • Direct access is under-used

    In many states patients can book physical therapy without a referral, but most do not know it. Clinics that explain this clearly and make booking easy capture patients who would otherwise wait.

  • Referral relationships need upkeep

    Physicians and surgeons send patients to clinics they know and trust. Without regular outreach and a clean referral process, those relationships fade.

Yes. One practice on our client wall is in Missouri: Jackson Healing Arts (Jackson). Our client wall lists them with their websites.
