  • The Pelvic Health Clinic specializes in patients with complex histories and complex needs. Providers should aim to create a warm, friendly, and nurturing environment that promotes trust.

  • Patient care should be seen as individual and holistic whereby providers are willing and comfortable addressing, via questions and inquiry, areas outside physical therapy scope of practice. This does not mean that providers should intervene in these areas, but that questions should be posed that lead to appropriate and necessary professional referrals as they relate to the outlined plan of care best suited to the patient.

  • Employee autonomy and independence are encouraged. The Pelvic Health Clinic encourages creativity and relies on each employee to take care of themselves in regards to both their professional and personal needs.
