Referrals for Physical and Occupational Therapy
Most insurances do not require a referral for students to be evaluated at the clinic. However, some insurances may require a referral. Students whose insurance requires a referral may seek an evaluation at the Student Health and Wellness Center or through their primary care physician to obtain a referral. For those students on the student health insurance, the deductible will be reduced  to $75 with a referral from the Student Health and Wellness Center. Parental consent will be required for students under age 18 to receive treatment.

Cost of Services
Services at the Peabody Clinic will be billed to the patient’s health insurance. The cost to the patient will depend on their health insurance coverage. Please see the healthcare FAQ for more details. Students who want to be seen at the Peabody Clinic are encouraged to call their health insurance company and ask what their physical therapy and occupational therapy benefits cover.

To make an appointment for physical or occupational therapy
To make an appointment for physical therapy or occupational therapy, call the scheduling line at 443-997-5476. Alternatively you may schedule an appointment through MyChart.  If you are having difficulty making an appointment or have questions, email Andrea Lasner, the clinic manager, at [email protected].

If you are unsure whether you need a physical therapy or occupational therapy evaluation and/or treatment, Peabody students, faculty, and staff may request an advisement session  for a virtual appointment or walk in during open clinic hours on campus. An advisement session is a brief conversation to facilitate the navigation of care options based on the student or faculty member’s complaint or injury. Medical intervention will not be provided during this appointment.
