Questions about physical therapy gaps

Where do PT patients come from?
Often referrals from surgeons and doctors, plus people coming in directly where state rules allow.
Why do older residents matter?
Joint replacements, falls and chronic conditions become more common with age, so areas with many older adults often need more therapy.
What transfers when buying a PT clinic?
Therapists, referral relationships, equipment and insurance contracts, which may need new credentialing for the new owner.
