Office Expectations at Switzer Family Chiropractic
In order to provide you with the best possible care for yourself and your family, we ask you to cooperate with us in several different areas. Therefore, this form has been created for your convenience and information.
What you should expect from us
- To see you as a person, not a condition. It is not our job to treat your symptoms or relieve them. Our job as a chiropractor is to find and correct the spinal health problems (vertebral subluxations) that are causing your symptoms.
- Explain our procedures and findings, and then monitor and report your progress.
- Show you ways to get and stay well.
- Respect your privacy and time.
- Honor your individual health goals.
- Refer to other specialists as needed.
- Charge a fair fee for our services.
What we expect from you
- In order to reach your chiropractic goals, you must keep your appointments and participate in your healing. Your level of consistent participation will affect your outcome. If you need to cancel, please call us in advance so we can reschedule you. Last minute cancellations or no shows greatly affect our ability to schedule other patients. Please be courteous and give us as much advance notice if you must cancel.
- We are a TEAM. Communication with each other is essential to achieving fantastic results. Please do not be afraid to tell us what is going well and what is not. If we don’t know, we can’t help you reach your goals.
- Once with the doctor, please do not answer your cell phone. Also, please limit wearing perfumes or cologne due to potential sensitivity of people in the office.
- Want better health and follow our advice (exercises, stretches, nutritional, etc.). Healing is a process that takes time, and performance of any home exercises, activity modification or nutritional changes is recommended for best results.
- Please pay your bill.
- Tell others about the benefits of chiropractic care!
Today - Drink LOTS of water. Ideally you should be drinking ½ your body weight in ounces per day (ex. 150 pound person needs 75 ounces of water). Drinking water will help minimize any type of soreness you may feel after your first adjustment, and is a crucial part of health and healing.
Switzer Family Chiropractic is a family practice. If you have children, bring them in for a check up. Do not wait until they are ill or hurt before they receive their first check up or adjustment. You have received a certificate for a discounted first visit, please consider using it for this check up.
