Why This Exists

Recovery shouldn't require a new referral, a new chart, and a new waiting room.

The typical path to physical therapy runs through a physician visit, a referral, and a search for an in-network clinic that's never seen your chart. ParikhHealth keeps it in-house: the same practice that diagnosed your injury or performed your pre-op clearance treats your recovery too, on the same medical record.

A Focused Specialty, Not An Afterthought

Pelvic floor health, led by a physical therapist who specializes in it.

Pelvic floor dysfunction affects far more people than the conversation around it suggests — after childbirth, after pelvic or abdominal surgery, or with no single obvious cause. Sonia Sharma, PT treats pelvic pain, urinary and fecal incontinence, postpartum recovery, and pelvic organ prolapse, and brings that same clinical eye to orthopedic and sports rehabilitation. She coordinates directly with ParikhHealth's Women's Health team, so a pelvic floor referral means a conversation down the hall — not a new specialty clinic and a new chart.

Side By Side

In-house PT vs. the typical referral path

Outside physical therapy isn't lower quality — it's just disconnected from the physician who sent you there. Here's what changes when it's under one roof.

How PT Fits In

One practice, every step of recovery.

Physical therapy at ParikhHealth isn't a separate referral — it sits inside the same practice as your primary care, sports medicine, and women's health providers, so nothing gets lost between appointments.

As team physician for USA Cricket, Dr. Neesheet Parikh brings a national-team standard of sports medicine to every orthopedic and post-operative plan built here. That same standard of coordinated, unhurried attention carries through pelvic floor care, where Sonia Sharma, PT works directly with ParikhHealth's Women's Health team on referrals.

  • In-House With Your Medical Team — physical therapy shares a chart and a building with your physicians, not a fax machine.
  • Sports Medicine Standard — orthopedic and post-operative rehab informed by the same expertise Dr. Parikh brings to national-team athletes.
  • Pelvic Floor, Coordinated — Sonia Sharma, PT works directly with Women's Health on pelvic floor referrals, without a separate specialty clinic.
Questions

Before your first visit

Do I need a physician referral to start physical therapy?

Not always — many insurance plans allow direct access to physical therapy. If your plan requires a referral, your physician is in the same practice, so it's a same-building conversation rather than a separate appointment somewhere else.

Is pelvic floor physical therapy only for women?

No. Pelvic floor dysfunction affects men and women, and can involve pain, incontinence, or recovery after pelvic or abdominal surgery. Sonia Sharma, PT treats patients across all of these situations.

How soon after surgery can I start physical therapy?

It depends on the procedure and your surgeon's protocol — some post-operative plans begin within days, others after a period of rest. Your PT plan will follow your surgeon's specific guidance.

Does insurance cover physical therapy here?

Most plans include a physical therapy benefit, though specifics vary by plan and diagnosis. Reach out and we'll confirm your coverage before your first visit.

Can I be treated for a sports injury and get return-to-play clearance here?

Yes — physical therapy works directly with our sports medicine team on rehabilitation and return-to-play timelines, from the first evaluation through clearance.
