First Visit
Brief Paperwork is usually completed online prior to your appointment. The intake form is sent to you once your appointment is booked. The paperwork provides us with general information about yourself and your condition. Consultation Once the paperwork has been completed, you will have a consultation with the doctor to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, as well as potential treatment options. History and Examination In order to determine what your actual problem is, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your condition. Next, a number of specialized tests will be performed to determine which tissues are affected and to what extent. Treatment In most cases, treatment will be performed right after the history and initial examination. The doctor will go over the treatment options with you to formulate a treatment plan that is most suitable for you. Home Instructions Prior to leaving, patients will be given instructions on certain activities or procedures to be conducted at home. This may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches. Schedule Your Next Appointment The doctor will discuss how frequency you will need to return for your condition and your prognosis. You will be given a convenient appointment time for your follow-up visit. |
