A friend experiencing neck pain recently called around to find a physical therapist who would see her. She had been to PT before and knew how much it would help. But because she was seeking out PT directly, without first going to a doctor, clinic after clinic turned her away. One said "we're not doctors, we can't diagnose" while another said flatly "we don't treat without a referral." Needless to say she was frustrated. She didn't have the time to coordinate two different appointments, and since her pain was pretty bad, she wanted to get care right away.
