Growing a physical therapy practice isn’t one-size-fits-all. The right path depends on where you are today, where you want to go, and how much support you want along the way.

At ApexNetwork Physical Therapy, we work with clinic owners, clinicians, hospitals, and healthcare groups at every stage of growth. That’s why we offer multiple business models, each designed to meet different needs.

Here’s how to determine which growth model may be right for you.

Franchise: A Turnkey Path to Ownership

Franchising is ideal for physical therapists or healthcare professionals looking to open their first clinic or expand into a new market. With a franchise, you gain access to proven systems, brand recognition, and hands-on support from day one.

This model works well if you want:

• A clear roadmap to ownership
• Operational and clinical systems already in place
• Ongoing support and guidance

Partnership: Shared Ownership, Shared Growth

The Partnership Model is built for organizations seeking a true collaborative relationship. Through shared ownership and decision-making, ApexNetwork works alongside partners to reduce risk and accelerate growth.

This option is often best for:

• Hospitals and health systems
• Orthopedic groups
• Established practices seeking aligned leadership

Managed Services: Support Without Giving Up Control

Managed Services allows owners to remain independent while gaining access to ApexNetwork’s operational, billing, marketing, and compliance expertise.

This model is a strong fit for practices that:

• Want to reduce administrative burden
• Need help improving efficiency
• Want to stay independent while growing

Conversion: Strengthening Established Practices

The Conversion Model is designed for existing clinics ready to align fully with the ApexNetwork brand. Clinics adopt proven systems, support structures, and branding while continuing to serve their communities.

Conversion may be right if you:

• Own an established clinic
• Are planning long-term growth or succession
• Want national brand strength and operational stability

Choosing the Right Path

The best growth model aligns with your goals, resources, and vision. Whether you’re launching a new clinic or strengthening an established one, ApexNetwork offers flexible paths built on experience, systems, and results.
