This PT office is by far the BEST in the Denver Metro area. I've been to 5 PT offices in the last 5 years, and I've never had better results before! These people are the best!

This clinic provided the best outcome I could have imagined after an accident. They will help you build strength and provide groundwork for recovery. I can't thank Dr. Parker and his team enough.

We love this place!! When we first came in we were scared and lost but Heather was so sweet and kind to us. Monique made us feel safe and cared for. We are happy to be healed but sad to leave the office.

I had the best treatment by the team, from the doctors to the massage therapist to physical therapist. They listened to how I was feeling and treated me with what I was feeling in mind. I would highly recommend them.

Common questions

3 answered
A US-36 pileup hit me between Flatiron Crossing and Westminster. Is this the right clinic?
Yes. The Turnpike between Sheridan and Table Mesa is our geographic zone. 65-mph rear-ends there are the highest-delta-V whiplash we see — cervical strain with thoracic involvement, concussion in about a quarter of cases. Dr. Leach's intake accounts for that compound pattern.
I live in Thornton or Broomfield. Is Westminster actually closer than going downtown?
For most of you, yes. Thornton crashes on I-25 at 120th or 144th, and Broomfield crashes on 287 or Midway, map to our Tejon Street clinic as the nearest TCCC by drive time. Going into central Denver adds 20+ minutes in most traffic conditions.
I was a passenger, not the driver. Can I still be seen?
Yes. Passenger injuries after a collision are covered the same way as driver injuries under Colorado MedPay (the benefit attaches to the vehicle you were in). We verify passenger coverage under the driver's policy before your visit.

If your crash hit the US-36 Turnpike, the Sheridan corridor, or anywhere in the north-metro commuter belt, the Tejon Street clinic handles that territory. Leach runs intake, imaging routes to nearby regional partners when warranted, and treatment coordinates with Broomfield and Thornton partners if that's where you actually live. Benefits verified upfront; most intakes open same-week.
