Free, quality physical therapy care in Siouxland:

The Briar Cliff Clinic is a student-run, pro-bono clinic that provides free physical therapy services to people in Siouxland who are uninsured, underinsured or whose benefits have run out. 

The clinic is organized and run by doctoral students of the physical therapy program at Briar Cliff. While the students are providing you quality care, they're also developing hands-on educational skills and knowledge of physical therapy, under the guidance of University faculty.

People we treat:

We provide services to patients of all ages, from children to older adults, including those needing treatment for:

• Post-operative joint pain (hip & knee replacements, etc.)
• Muscle pain
• Sports injuries
• Arthritis
• Amputations
• Balance and movement issues
• Heart and lung conditions
• Neurological issues (ALS, brain injuries, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, spinal cord injury, stroke)
• Wellness programs to enhance and maintain mobility and function

A Spanish-speaking physical therapist and child care services are available on request.

Do you qualify for free care?

For patients that are uninsured or underinsured, a screening process to identify financial need will be required prior to administering care at the clinic. If you qualify for the need-based option, physical therapy care will be offered at no charge.
