What to Expect for Your First Visit
First things first
Paperwork. We know, we know… it’s not your favorite. But this way, we have the most accurate information about yourself and your condition.
We listen to you
Now that your paperwork is done, we take the time to listen to what you’re going through and go through a full consultation. This is the first step in creating a care plan that will best suit you for recovery.
We dive a little deeper
Once the consultation is done, we take the time to examine you so we can gain a better understanding of what’s contributing to your condition. We explain, in detail, what we find, and we present you with a comprehensive care plan to get you better.
We make a difference
Now that we’ve studied your condition and given you the treatment plan, many times, we start right away with an initial treatment. We continue to treat your condition until, and even after, you’ve made a full recovery.
