NEW PATIENTS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME
Whether this is your first introduction to chiropractic care or you have received chiropractic care in the past, we welcome you to experience the difference at Carmines Chiropractic. At Carmines Chiropractic, you can expect to receive individualized chiropractic care that is tailored to your specific needs.

YOUR FIRST VISIT
Your first visit will generally take about an hour. You will first have a consultation with Dr. Carmines to discuss your health-related concerns and potential treatment options. This allows Dr. Carmines to gain more information about your condition and expectations so she can best determine how chiropractic care can help you achieve your goals.
After your consultation, you will have a comprehensive chiropractic examination including standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical assessments. Dr. Carmines will determine if any additional testing or imaging will be required before commencing chiropractic care. If you previously had any x-rays, MRI's, or CT scans of your spine we encourage you to bring them with you to your first appointment.
After reviewing your health history, goals, examination findings, and x-rays (if necessary), Dr. Carmines will discuss her recommendations for you and answer any questions you may have. If no additional imaging or testing is required and it is determined that chiropractic care can help you to achieve your goals, you will be given a preliminary care plan. You will then have the option to begin care and receive your first chiropractic adjustment in our office.
NEW PATIENT PAPERWORK
We recommend that you complete our new patient intake forms prior to your first visit. There is a patient information form and a health history review form. Completing these forms prior to your appointment will not only save time during your office visit, but also allows you more time to thoroughly complete the forms with greater detail while in the comfort of your own home. You can email the completed forms to us at drcarmines@yahoo.com or you can print them at home and bring them with you to your appointment.
