What to Expect

Here is where you can find information regarding what to expect at your first appointment as well as at your follow up visits, insurance information, cash pricing and information regarding our patient portal. 

New Patient Appointment

Initial Visit

At your initial visit, you should plan on arriving 10 minutes early to check in and fill out our brief intake paperwork. If you have health insurance, bring your card with you so we can check your coverage. Wear anything that is comfortable for you and allows you to move freely.

​

Your initial visit will take around 30 minutes. After reviewing your intake paperwork, your doctor will perform a thorough history, orthopedic exam, neurologic exam and Chiropractic exam to come to a diagnosis. After that, your doctor will work with you to develop a treatment plan custom tailored to you and your condition. As long as your doctor deems it is warranted, you will also get treated this same day.

Follow Up Appointment

Subsequent Visits 

Your follow up visits will be much quicker than your initial visit as there will be no paperwork or exam to be completed. At your follow up visits, your doctor will do a quick focused history to make sure the treatment plan is effective and that you are responding well to treatment. Then, treatment will commence. 

​

The frequency and amount of follow ups you will need is determined on a case-by-case basis based on the treatment plan created by your doctor. If you are released from care and want to return again, you can schedule a follow up appointment at any time. You will not need another exam unless you develop a new complaint.
