Sullivan Physical Therapy statement on Covid-19
Sullivan Physical Therapy would like to assure our patients we are being proactive regarding the spread of the COVID-19 (coronavirus).  As part of the Austin Health Community, we want you to know what we are doing to make Sullivan Physical Therapy a safe place for patients to be seen.

What is Sullivan Physical Therapy doing to prevent spreading COVID-19:
  • Putting CDC recommended protocols in place to ensure the highest level of prepared COVID-19 prevention. 
  • Ensuring we have necessary supplies and equipment, and appropriate staffing. 
  • Provide all employees with N95 masks to use while inside the clinic.
  • Placed UV air purifiers in the waiting room, hallways and each treatment room to address microorganisms such as viruses in the air.
  • Rearranged our waiting room to allow for social distancing.  We ask if there is more than 10 people in the waiting room for patients to wait outside or in their car.  If you are waiting in your car, please call our office at (512) 335-9300.
  • Removed all magazines and chocolate from the waiting room.
  • Increased our cleaning protocols in the treatment rooms and common areas.
  • Ask all employees and patients who have symptoms of the COVID-19 (cough, shortness of breath, fever) to contact their healthcare provider before coming to the clinic.
  • We are asking all patients and guests to wear a mask when inside the clinic.  If you do not have a mask we can provide one for your personal use to keep.  In addition, we are asking all patients to limit their guests who accompany them to their appointments.

We will continue to assess and monitor as this progresses and will respond accordingly.

What patients are saying about Sullivan Physical Therapy
"I was really satisfied all around with Sullivan Physical Therapy. I had constant pelvic floor pain for 3 months and was unable to properly treat the symptoms until coming here. All of the staff and physical therapists were extremely friendly, down-to-earth and trustworthy. I love the ability to email my physical therapist and receive referrals to online resources.  If I ever have any of the same pain, I will never hesitate to come back here immediately!"
"This is by far the most professional, competent therapy I have ever experienced. The office is very well run.  One of the things that really struck me about the facility was the spotless atmosphere. I have been in therapy facilities where they did not pay attention to cleanliness and it really makes the patient not want to go back. Thank you for your obvious attention to a clean, spotless area everywhere in your facility."
