What to Expect on Your First Visit
​
After being welcomed into the office, you will have a consultation with Dr. Abe will go over the main reason for today's visit, your personal health history, and your ultimate health goals. Dr. Abe will then perform a physical and orthopedic examination that will help determine the best course of treatment in order to help you reach your goals for better health. Children will be examined very much the same depending on the age of the child. We try our best to help make your child's visit as comfortable and pleasant as possible. We understand that health care can be costly and therefore believe that finding the root cause of your problems and treating it early will ultimately save you time and more costs in the future. It is far less costly to maintain your good health, rather than waiting until serious problems arise!

Some Frequently Asked Questions
​
How long is the initial visit? Follow-up visits?
Depending on your condition, initial visits usually range from 45 minutes to 1 hour. This includes going over your present complaints, your pertinent health history, spinal examination, and first treatment session.
Follow-up visits are approximately 15-30 minutes.​ Frequency of visits are determined based on your diagnosis and how well your body responds to treatments.
​
Can I fill out the initial intake forms beforehand?
Yes! The initial intake form is located on the bottom of this page. Please fill them out and bring them with you on your first visit. Each new patient must have a signed intake form, informed consent and office policy.

Do you accept health insurance?
Our office accepts most PPO plans - However, we are considered out-of-network providers. Chiropractic benefits vary from plan to plan and therefore need to be verified during the initial visit. If your insurance has a high "out-of-network" deductible we have cash rates to help make things more affordable.
​
What if I don't have health insurance?​
Not a problem! Dr. Abe will estimate the amount of visits needed in order to reach your health goals and will present our affordable cash rates for you.
