We offer prompt scheduling, flexible hours, and comprehensive insurance participation. Our highly trained, dedicated physical therapists work to improve your overall health and well-being with careful evaluations and individualized specific treatment programs.
Who We Are
Advanced Physical Therapy and Preferred Physical Therapy are one and the same. We are a locally owned outpatient physical therapy company that started back in 2004 in Wichita by three friends, Derry Larson, Brad Dopps, and David Todd. Our company started physical therapy clinics in the Wichita and surrounding areas as Advanced Physical Therapy and moved up into the Kansas City and surrounding areas as Preferred Physical Therapy. Over the years, we have expanded to include both specialties of physical therapy and occupational therapy. Although we have two names, our company has the same overall vision to build relationships for life and improve the wellness of the communities we serve.
Heather at Preferred Physical Therapy is the best therapist I have ever had. That would make her number one out of six! She explains why you need to do various things which really helps. I can definitely walk better and it hurts less because of her!
CarolynWhen I started, I could not walk or stand very long. I still have some weakness in my left leg, but can stand and walk a lot longer. Hopefully with more exercise, I will not have the pain I get in my lower back and left leg/foot.
JohnWhen I started therapy the pain was consistent and it restricted my life and work. With therapy and the help of Randi, I can now function. I am able to be out of the house and fully do my job. My pain has been cut down to a third of what it was.
StefanieTherapy went well. I have a lot more freedom of movement and no pain. They are a great group of people!!
CoryBegan PT with significant neck pain, contemplating the possibility of surgery. I now have significant relief, with great range of motion both horizontal and vertical direction. Additionally, teaching me things I an do at home has resulted in continued range of motion and comfort.
