For Physicians & Surgeons

A Reliable Rehab Partner
For Your Post-Op Patients.

Physiotherapist-led, force-plate measured, protocol-driven. Refer once — receive structured updates, objective testing, and a return-to-activity decision backed by data.

The Problem We Solve

Your patients shouldn't need to
call your office for this.

Post-op recovery questions are within physio scope. We handle them — so your office doesn't have to.

Without RecoveryX
Unnecessary patient calls
"Is this swelling normal at week 3?" — on your voicemail instead of ours.
Anxiety-driven follow-up visits
Patients booking out of worry — not need — filling your schedule unnecessarily.
No visibility between visits
You see the patient at 6 weeks with no record of how rehab actually went.
With RecoveryX
One clinical point of contact
Routine questions handled within physio scope — same day, before they reach you.
Fewer unplanned appointments
Patients have a trusted contact — so they stop booking with you out of anxiety.
Structured reports at every phase
Objective summaries delivered to you — so you're never in the dark between visits.
Why Refer to RecoveryX

Your patients get real answers. Not a wait list.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about referring patients to RecoveryX.

Simply complete the referral form on this page with basic patient information and relevant surgical or diagnosis details. We'll reach out within 24 hours to get them started.
No. RecoveryX is a complementary service designed to support patients between your appointments. We do not replace surgical follow-ups, modify post-operative protocols, or make clinical decisions outside physiotherapy scope.
Yes. We provide structured mid-program and clearance updates so you stay informed at key milestones — without added administrative burden on your end.
If a concern falls outside physiotherapy scope — or requires medical assessment — we direct the patient back to your office immediately and flag it in our communication to you. We do not manage medical emergencies or make decisions beyond our scope.
No. We operate entirely within your surgical and clinical framework. All rehabilitation guidance aligns with your protocol timelines and restrictions. If there's any ambiguity, we confirm with your office before proceeding.
We proactively guide patients through common post-operative questions — swelling, pain levels, activity progression, what's normal vs. what's not — so they have a trusted point of contact between visits. Most routine questions never reach your office.
RecoveryX is a private physiotherapy service. Coverage varies by extended health plan. We provide official receipts for patient submission. We do not bill OHIP directly.
