Your Second Visit to Our Encinitas Practice
After we study your health history and correlate our examination findings, we’ll make recommendations designed to help you get and keep your health. We call this the Report of Findings.
This is usually attended to on your second visit, which may be later the same day or the following. This two-visit approach accomplishes several things:
- Reduces the length of your first visit
- Gives us time to correlate our findings
- Avoids overloading you with too much information
In certain situations, and in the professional judgment of Dr. Kipp, we sometimes make exceptions. It just depends on your unique situation.
Report of Findings
We’ll spend about 15 minutes reviewing our findings with you and offering answers to the four questions most patients have when they consult our office:
- What's wrong?
- Can Chiropractic help?
- How long will it take?
- How much will it cost?
If you have any other questions, be sure to ask!
You'll Have Choices
Based on our findings, we’ll make recommendations and you’ll be presented with some choices:
- Proceed with chiropractic care
- Seek the opinion of another practitioner
- Ignore the problem hoping it will resolve
- Medication to reduce symptoms (referral required)
- Physical therapy (referral required)
- Surgical intervention (referral required)
