It also work in collaboration with the neurology clinic and accepts patients with neurological disorders as stroke, gait disorders, facial palsy and cerebral palsy.
The PT unit also accepts referrals from other clinics and centers who refer patients to DHMC.

However, they might still be seen, for free by the doctors, to confirm that their diagnoses and to confirm that their prescribed PT programs match their diagnoses.
