These only apply if you are being seen at Agile San Mateo, Palo Alto, Los Altos, San Francisco, Menlo Park, or Los Gatos. If you are a patient at an Employer-onsite location these may not apply to you.

We would appreciate 48 hours notice if you need to cancel so that we may open your appointment time to other patients. If you cancel with less than 48 hours notice, we will waive the fee for the first missed appointment, charge you half the cost of the visit for the second missed appointment, and the full cost of the visit for any missed appointments thereafter.

- You do not need a doctor’s prescription to see a Physical Therapist in California. You can be treated by a Physical therapist for 12 sessions or 45 calendar days, whichever occurs first. Beyond this period, you are able to continue with Physical Therapy only after having received an in person examination and approval of your Physical Therapist’s plan of care by a physician, osteopath or podiatrist, certified in the state of California.
- Some health insurance companies still do require a physician’s referral in order to cover Physical Therapy services. We will help you determine if you insurance company requires a Physical Therapy prescription prior to your first visit.

Agile is one of the few clinics in the Bay Area that offers individualized, patient-centered care. All of our team therapists are amongst the best in the profession. Following a comprehensive evaluation, your therapist will work with you to develop a unique treatment plan tailored to your specific condition. While our rates may be higher, the individualized, focused care approach we believe in at Agile often results in far superior outcomes in fewer visits than other clinics. We are conveniently located in Palo Alto, San Mateo, San Francisco, Menlo Park, Los Altos, and Los Gatos. Come visit us!

Our goal is to have all our billing submitted to your insurance within 10-15 days of your visit. From there, it is in the hands of your insurance company. On average, we see insurance companies process claims within thirty (30) to forty-five (45) days.

Yes, we kindly request you pay your co-insurance at the time of your visit.

Agile Physical Therapy accepts most PPO insurance plans through your Out-of-Network (OON) benefits.
Why We’re Out-of-Network
We choose to stay out-of-network so we can give you the highest quality care possible. The rates many insurance companies pay don’t allow us to spend the time and attention each patient deserves.
One-on-One Care That Gets Results
Did you know that many physical therapy clinics see 3–4 patients per hour?
At Agile, you get the full hour with your therapist — every time. That means you can heal faster, need fewer visits, and always get personal, hands-on care from a highly trained Doctor of Physical Therapy.
