DirectionsAbout this clinic
Longmont opened in 2024 with Marcus Oyelaran, who had already spent six years inside the group — which is the only way we have found to open a clinic without diluting it. It is our workers' compensation and industrial rehab centre, and it is deliberately not precious about it.
That means a 6:30am first appointment so a framing crew does not lose a morning, a functional capacity testing rig in the back, and a front desk that will phone your foreman and your adjuster rather than handing you a number to call. Roughly two-thirds of the caseload is comp or post-injury return to physical work; the rest is ordinary orthopaedic rehab for the towns along the corridor.
What’s different here
- Group's workers' compensation and functional capacity testing centre
- Doors open at 6:30am so a shift is not lost to an appointment
- We handle employer and adjuster communication directly, in writing
Forty-plus free spaces directly outside, including two accessible bays at the door. Trucks and work vans fit — the lot was chosen for it.
RTD route 324 stops on Ken Pratt at Tenacity, a four-minute walk. There is no rail here; almost everyone drives.
- Private treatment room
- Force plate & handheld dynamometry
- Full squat rack and platform
- 240fps gait treadmill
- Step-free access from the lot
- Spanish spoken on site
- Functional capacity testing rig
- Job-simulation loading area
- 6:30am first appointment
What Longmont treats.
5 of the group's six service lines run here. The gaps are deliberate rather than accidental, and the clinic that does run them is one click away.
Sports rehab & return to sport
Getting you back to the actual sport, with a number that says you're ready.
Full descriptionPost-surgical recovery
Protocol-faithful rehab that talks to your surgeon, from week one to discharge.
Full descriptionRunning & gait analysis
240fps video, a treadmill, and a plan that doesn't just say 'rest'.
Full descriptionWork-injury & industrial rehab
Modified duty that keeps you earning, and a return-to-work letter we write ourselves.
This is the clinic that line was built for. Functional capacity evaluations run on site on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Marcus writes the restriction and return-to-duty letters himself rather than routing them through a third-party reviewer.
Full descriptionStrength & performance
The bridge between 'discharged' and 'actually robust'. Cash-pay, no referral.

Who you'll see at Longmont.
You get one of these people for the full hour, every visit — and the same one for your whole plan of care. Several of them also cover another clinic, so a move mid-plan doesn't mean starting again with a stranger.
Marcus Oyelaran
Lead Therapist, Longmont
Ten years as an athletic trainer before his DPT, six of them on industrial sites, which is why Marcus is the group's reference on work-injury cases. He will ask what you lift, how many times an hour, and at what height, and then build the plan around that rather than around a diagnosis code. He writes his own return-to-work letters.

Competes in strongmanHarriet Lindqvist
Physical Therapist
Harriet joined as a new graduate on the group's mentorship track and stayed to take Longmont's total-joint caseload. She is exceptionally good with nervous patients — the ones who have been told for years that their knee is bone on bone and that movement will make it worse — and spends the first visit dismantling that carefully.

Keeps three bees hivesPriya Raghunathan
Lead Therapist, Fort Collins
Priya built the paediatric line and has seen close to nine hundred young athletes through growth-plate injuries that somebody told them to walk off. She explains the injury to the twelve-year-old rather than over their head to the parent, which sounds like a small thing and is the reason her home-programme adherence is the best in the group.

Coaches U14 hockeyRowan McElhinney
Physical Therapist
Rowan splits between Golden and Longmont and does the group's mountain-bike and trades caseload — wrists, shoulders, and lower backs belonging to people who were never going to take four weeks off and should be planned for accordingly. Trained in the UK, so expect the metric system without warning.

The clinic is pre-filled — you only need to change it if you would rather be seen somewhere else, and the service list will change with it.
Your first visit
Bring the boring paperwork
Photo ID, insurance card, and your referral or surgical protocol if you have one. If you do not have a referral, come anyway — Colorado is a direct-access state.
Dress for the joint
Shorts for anything below the waist, a tank or sports bra for shoulders and necks. If you are here about running, bring the shoes you actually run in, worn and unwashed.
Ninety minutes for the evaluation
The first appointment is longer than the rest. History, hands-on exam, baseline testing on the plate and the dynamometer, and you leave with the plan and the discharge criteria in writing.
You will start treatment that day
Nobody gets evaluated and sent home with a photocopy. You will do real work in the first hour and leave with two or three things to do before the next visit — not a booklet of twelve.
Bring your claim number, your adjuster's name, and your employer's contact if you have it. We bill the carrier directly and you should never see an invoice for an accepted claim — if one turns up, forward it to us and we will deal with it.
Every clinic is step-free from the parking lot, has an accessible restroom and a private treatment room, and has at least one height-adjustable table. Say the word when you book and we will hold a ground-floor bay. English and Spanish at every clinic. ASL interpretation with five business days' notice, at no cost to you.
Who drives to Longmont.
Most of this clinic’s patients come from Longmont, Prospect, Frederick and the surrounding towns. If you are further out, it is still worth ringing — we’d rather tell you honestly that another Foothold clinic, or someone else entirely, is a better use of your time.
