Is a referral needed to attend physiotherapy treatment at Pitter Patter Physio?

Physiotherapists are first contact practitioners, therefore no referrals are needed!

If you’re eligible, you can use your chronic disease management plan (CDMP) from your GP, in which case you’ll require a letter from them. Medicare subsidises up to 5 physiotherapy sessions per year. Feel free to contact us to discuss your options.
