Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

Using the latest technologies and advancements in rehabilitative medicine, the UT Southwestern Pediatric Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Plano works with patients ages 0 to 20 years to treat neurological and musculoskeletal injuries and congenital or childhood-onset developmental disorders. 

We use state-of-the-art medical therapies to prevent secondary complications, alleviate pain, and improve function and independence without resorting to surgery. Care is individualized, based on each child’s needs.

Conditions we focus on include:

Preparing for Your Appointment

To make the most of your time with the doctor, prepare a list of questions ahead of time and bring it to your appointment.

On the day of the appointment, please arrive 20 minutes early to allow time for parking and registration. We do our best to see patients at their scheduled appointment time. 

Please bring the following items:

• Current insurance card
• Method of payment
• Current medications
• Completed paperwork, if you received forms before the visit

To facilitate ongoing communication, we recommend patients sign up with MyChart, which allows patients to communicate directly with doctors, request prescription refills, update contact information, view test results, and request clinic appointments. Sign in to or sign up for MyChart.

Canceling an Appointment

If you need to cancel an appointment, please notify us at least 48 hours in advance so we can accommodate other patients.

Prescriptions and Refills

It is very important that your child does not run out of their medication. Be sure that you have sufficient refills to last until your next appointment. We are happy to provide you with a written prescription upon request.

If you run out of refills, please call your pharmacy, and your pharmacist will fax a refill request to us. Please allow us 24 to 48 hours to process refill requests.
