What to Expect
WELCOME. . . First of all relax, you are in good hands. Dr. Martin has 28 years of experience and his wife Carol has been co-ordinating their office for more than eight years. Please dress in comfortable clothes and be prepared to be in the office for 45 minutes.
On the first visit you will fill out several information forms. Dr. Martin will conduct a personal History interview with you and then a Physical exam to help determine what the actual problem is and what treatment approach will be best for you. If further testing such as X-rays or other tests are justified we will discuss this. If emergency care is required to make you comfortable it will be provided, otherwise you will be asked to return tommorrow in order to give Dr. Martin time to review your information and test results.
On your second visit a treatment program will be suggested and treatment will begin. Treatment options will be explained in advance so there are no surprises. Carol will review office proceedures and office fees with you. She will do her best to help you with forms and any questions you might have. Again no surprises.
Regular chiropractic appointments typically require just 15 minutes. Periodically your progress will be evaluated and this may require some extra time. Although we treat children for many reasons, we can not allow children to roam freely about the treatment area. Also cell phones can be very irritating to other clients . Therefore please turn your cell phone off. We want your office visits to be as relaxing as possible.
- First Visit. To find out if we can help you, we ask questions and listen.
- Second Visit. We’ll report what we found and answer all your questions.
- Regular Visit. A typical visit will be much shorter, but just as important!
