“After tearing my ACL during trail training, Dr. Vance's data-driven loading protocol gave me total clarity. We hit 98% quad symmetry before I was cleared, and I just finished the Austin Half-Marathon completely pain-free.”

“I was told surgery was inevitable for my severe disc bulge. Dr. Hayes diagnosed my directional preference in visit one. Within 8 weeks radicular pain was zero, and by week 12 I resumed heavy barbell pulls.”
“Dr. Rostova caught a major scapular dyskinesis that previous clinics missed. Combined with dry needling and high-velocity eccentric rotator cuff loading, I dropped my 200m fly time without inflammation.”
Apex operates strictly out-of-network so our Doctors of Physical Therapy can focus 100% on your recovery—never double-booking appointments, handing you off to aides, or letting insurance adjusters dictate your care timeline.
Know your exact investment before stepping foot in the clinic. Comprehensive 60-minute doctor evaluations are $175. No surprise facility fees or unexpected copay bills arriving months later.
Following each session, your clinician provides an itemized medical Superbill populated with standard ICD-10 diagnostic and CPT treatment codes required by private health plans.
Submit your Superbill directly to your PPO insurance provider (BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, United) for direct 50%–80% out-of-network reimbursement. You can also pay seamlessly using your HSA or FSA card.
Everything you need to know about our doctoral care model, Texas Direct Access laws, insurance reimbursement, and what to expect on visit one.
No. Under Texas Direct Access legislation, you can be evaluated and treated directly by a Doctor of Physical Therapy for up to 10–15 consecutive business days without a physician prescription. If your recovery plan requires ongoing care beyond the Direct Access window, our clinical team coordinates directly with your primary care doctor or orthopedic specialist to secure necessary documentation without you having to schedule extra doctor visits.
