Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Do I need a doctor’s referral for WSIB physiotherapy? While a doctor’s referral is helpful, it is often not required for your first visit. You can typically see a physiotherapist immediately after reporting your injury to your employer. We can begin your claim process right away.
- How long does WSIB authorize treatment for? WSIB typically pre-authorizes an initial course of treatment. Your physiotherapist will communicate your progress to the WSIB case manager, and further treatment will be authorized based on medical necessity and your ongoing recovery needs.
- What should I bring to my first appointment? Please bring your WSIB claim number (if you have one) and the date of the injury. If you don’t have a claim number yet, we can help you navigate the necessary steps.
