No. New Jersey Direct Access lets you begin physical therapy without a doctor's referral. You can call any SportsMed clinic, be evaluated by a licensed physical therapist, and start hands-on treatment in that same first visit, with no waiting on a primary care appointment and no paperwork moving between offices.
Some insurance plans still require a referral for reimbursement even though state law does not, so our team verifies your benefits before your first appointment and tells you what you'll owe. Read the full rules on our Direct Access page.

Hands-on treatment typically begins that same visit, and you leave with a written home program and a realistic recovery timeline.
