Most
report of findings are provided in the exam or treatment rooms where
charts and x-ray view boxes are readily available. However, when a
more personal consultation is desired we offer warm, quiet and very
private accommodations. It is here we provide advice about your
condition. But, we also lend an empathetic ear when you just need
someone who is impartial, objective and safe to talk to, about
anything. When you come to the office you are greeted by
one of our friendly staff. You will be asked to fill out some basic
forms. These will give us information that allows us to tailor our
services to your specific requirements. While you fill out the
information you can relax in our comfortable, warm surroundings.
Our common rooms have our credentials displayed
for your examination. There is a wide selection of health-related
brochures and magazines. However, you probably won't get a chance to
look at them. We schedule so that your wait time is 10 minutes or
less. Next, you will be taken to an examination/treatment room. Here
the doctor will take a case history, in which you will provide
information on how your symptoms originated.
You will tell us what makes it worse or better,
the medicines you have taken and whether they had helped. After all
the necessary data has been collected you will be examined. When a diagnosis is made you will be given a "report of findings."
That is you will be told what your condition is and what treatment
is appropriate for you.
During
your report of findings you will be shown your x-rays or MRI films,
if any. In this way you can visualize the often confusing
terminology or "medicaleze" that is used to describe what is
happening. If x-rays or MRI's are not available we will use
brochures and books to help you understand the underlying problem.
We love teaching and we have a lot of patience. Ask as many
questions as you want. In fact, make up a list at home and bring
them with you. You can e-mail or fax them to us so we can have the
information you need ready for you. Remember, we are here for
you...not the other way around.
At Professional Chiropractic Associates you will
have access to the most up-to-date therapeutic equipment. Some of
these include ultrasound, electrical muscle/nerve stimulation, moist
heat and ice, traction, paraffin bath, diathermy, and rehab. Of
course, spinal manipulation is our premier treatment and is what
makes us special in the health care marketplace.
There are times when you are not completely sure
is you even want to undertake chiropractic treatment and you
certainly do not want to go thru an examination before finding out.
We offer no charge consultations. Here, you can speak frankly with
the doctor in absolute confidence. Often, we will be able to give
you information and instill the confidence you need to make an
informed decision.
We never lose sight of the fact that we are a
service provider. "Service" is the key word. While many doctors have
become too busy to spend time with you, especially when there is no
money to be made, we have held true to our chiropractic oath. And,
because of this, we have stood the test of time and have become very
successful. When choosing the right doctor is important to
you...please choose us!
