Consultation and Examination
Our first goal is to put you at ease! The doctor will meet with your to discuss your concerns and the issues which brought you to our office. In order to determine what your actual problem is, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your condition and your health history. We will then perform a physical examination related to your complaints. These may include orthopedic, neurological, nutritional and chiropractic tests, as well as general physical examination techniques. This will help us arrive at an accurate diagnosis.
X-Ray Studies
Current research reveals that x-rays are not routinely required. However, the doctor will determine whether x-rays are appropriate based on your history and physical examination findings.
Treatment Recommendations
Once finished with the examination and all appropriate studies, a time will be set up for a return visit and a report of findings.
Care Outside the Office
We will help you to help yourself by providing you with recommendations for home care. This might include whether to use ice or heat, stretches or exercises, and instructions regarding work restrictions and activities to avoid which might aggravate your condition.
