New Patients at Wilcox Family Chiropractic

Family in waiting roomSince chiropractic care involves a series of visits, with each one building on the ones before, it’s important that our relationship can go the distance. As Chiropractors in Kentwood we’ve found that one of the best ways to have successful patient relationships is to explain everything in advance. No surprises!

Your First Visit

Your initial visit will last for about 60 minutes. You will begin with a warm greeting from our new patient assistant who will help you complete any paperwork, which will help the doctor to understand the nature of your visit.

After review of your health history, the doctor will examine you to determine if chiropractic care is appropriate for you and then explain why and how chiropractic works. The doctor will then perform a comprehensive examination to determine the cause of your complaints, perform any necessary digital x-rays, and a posture evaluation. The doctor will review the results of the x-rays with you on day 1.

 

Based on examination and x-ray findings, you may get adjusted that day or at the time of your report of the doctor’s findings, typically within 1-2 days of the initial appointment.

Second Visit

Welcome back! A front-desk staff member will greet you, and escort you to a room where the doctor will give what is referred to as a “Report of Findings.” This consists of a colorful brochure filled with personalized information regarding your specific complaint that the doctor will explain to you along with details of what your treatment will consist of, and an estimate of cost of care based on the doctor’s recommendations and any insurance coverage.

If you are accepted for care at our office, your Kentwood Chiropractor will then give you a spinal adjustment and home instructions, if necessary. This may include icing, activity restrictions, stretching or suggestions for comfortable sleeping.
