ABOUT
After years of working in a traditional "big box" sports and orthopedic clinic, Dr. Nick Hadinger was frustrated by working in a system where the insurance company was the customer and the patients were simply just a number in the system. It was increasingly difficult to work in a model that dictated what therapists should or shouldn't do with patients, how often they should come and even how much time could be spent with them solely based on insurance reimbursement rates; not what was best for that particular patient. In 2019, Nick created Streamline to change that narrative.
Our 1-on-1 treatment model means no techs, no aides and no wasted time in therapy. Each session is spent entirely with your Doctor of Physical Therapy who will create a personalized plan of care for you. Our therapists specialize in keeping you participating in your favorite activities while identifying the root cause of the issue to ensure long term results. Our therapists are athletes themselves and participate in your sport with you to ensure optimal return to sport progressions and to keep you perform at a high level.
Our New Model Leads To:
-
Fewer overall therapy visits
-
Less frequent visits and more time for you
-
No wasted time in sessions
-
Long lasting outcomes; no band-aid "fixes" that are temporary
-
Increased self efficacy and patient autonomy in managing your injury
-
Less time away from training
-
Reduced surgeries and medications
