What to Expect at Fulton Family Chiropractic
You will immediately feel at home the moment you walk in the door.
If you’ve ever gone to a social event where you didn’t know anyone, you know how uncomfortable that can make you feel. Our goal is to eliminate every shred of apprehension and make you feel at home.
Since 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. We’ve found that one of the best ways to have successful patient relationships is to explain everything in advance.
The more you understand who we are, what we do and why we do it, the better results you’ll enjoy. It’s as simple as that.
So, check us out here. Poke around. Get to know us. Then, contact us to make an appointment so we can get to know you.
- 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!
Your First Visit to Our Fulton Practice
When you first arrive there will be some brief paperwork to complete.
On your first visit you will be greeted by one of our friendly receptionists. Once your paperwork is completed we will be going over your health concern(s) and educating you on the exam process and what we will be looking for.
A Physical Exam
The physical exam will consist of a postural evaluation, range of motion analysis, other tests and x-rays (if necessary) that are specific to your problem. We encourage you to ask questions and we welcome the opportunity to provide you with as much information as you would like.
You can expect your first appointment in our office to last about 60 minutes.
Your Second Visit to Our Fulton Practice
On your report visit we explain what we found and how we may be able to help you.
Your second visit will consist of an explanation of what problems were found (if any), and what options you have to handle them. The doctor will go over the results of your examinations and x-rays (if taken), and recommend a plan of care to correct your problem(s).
If your have insurance we will go over your specific coverage and benefits or other appropriate payment options.
You can expect your second visit in our office to take about 60 minutes. If you are accepted as a patient, and you begin care on this day, you should allow a little more time for the actual treatment.
Avoid relapse with regular visits.
Regular Visits
After the investment of time needed on the first and second visits, many patients become concerned that every visit will be of equal length.
In a word: no. A typical office visit may require just 20 minutes.
A typical visit starts with being greeted and signing in. You will then be seen by the doctor and staff to receive the best care possible to address and handle your condition.
Depending on your problem(s), and what needs to be done, this visit will last from 20-50 minutes.
