For your convenience, now you can download your New Patient paperwork here. We're also happy to fax it to you, if you prefer, or you can wait until your first appointment and fill it in when you're here. Plan to arrive at least fifteen minutes before your scheduled appointment time if you plan on completing the forms in the office.
Please remember to contact your insurance company before you come in to verify what your policy covers for chiropractic care. We are happy to help you navigate your policy and provide support if you have questions regarding your insurance. However, it is important that you remember that your insurance is a contract between you (the patient) and the insurance company.
Your First Visit
Dr. Mark will review your information with you and will discuss your pain, discomfort and any issues relevant to your care. Following an examination, you can expect to receive a manipulation, if needed. Your first appointment will last approximately one hour.
Chiropractors do not give shots, prescribe medication, or do surgery. If Dr. Mark feels that you need X-rays, you will be scheduled for x-rays through a local facility.
Subsequent Visits
After your first visit, you can expect your subsequent visits to take about twenty minutes. Every patient is different and the frequency of your return visits can vary greatly. Keep in mind that ultimately you, the patient are the healer. We believe that YOU are in control of your care! We will recommend a course of treatment for you but it's up to you to decide what to do and what not to do.
