What You Can Expect
Here is what you
can expect as a new patient in our office:
On your first visit we will
introduce you to our office and our style of chiropractic care. Next, you
will have a consultation with your doctor and he will perform a chiropractic
evaluation. Then, depending on your case, you will receive the diagnostic
tests and x-rays that the doctor feels is appropriate.
Your consultation, examination,
diagnostic test and x-ray data will
determine what's wrong with you and whether or not we can help you.
On your first visit, expect to spend approximately 60 minutes. Below is our
typical first visit procedure.
|
Step 1: |
You will be given paperwork
to fill out.
You can print off this paperwork on our website to fill out and bring with you
if you want. Please take the time
to fill out the paperwork completely as this helps the doctor better understand
your case. |
| |
|
|
Step 2: |
You will meet your doctor and
have a consultation. You will be able to discuss what's going on with your
health and you'll be able to ask the doctor questions that you have. |
| |
|
|
Step 3: |
The
doctor will perform a chiropractic examination to determine what's going on
with your body and your health. |
| |
|
|
Step 4: |
The
doctor will perform diagnostic tests and x-rays if he thinks it would be valuable to
determine the cause and diagnosis of your problem. X-rays are one of the
safest and best tests available to determine the health of the spine. |
| |
|
|
Step 5: |
If you require immediate
attention, emergency first aid will be administered. |
| |
|
|
Step 6: |
You will schedule your next
appointment where you will have a brief consultation to go over the results of
your examination and tests. You will learn whether or not your case has
been accepted. If it has been accepted, your doctor will give you your
chiropractic treatment plan options. |
|
|
|
|
Step 7: |
Treatments will begin and continue as scheduled
until your problem has been fully corrected or until maximum possible
improvement has been obtained. |
