Your doctor will discuss the center’s services, your goals, and conduct a thorough medical assessment, including your pain history and its impact on your life. This helps develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
At the end, your doctor will recommend initial treatments and suggest seeing other team members. After all assessments, we will create a detailed treatment plan.
Post-appointment, your doctor will inform your referrer. Team members you see will also send similar updates.
Please note that urgent cases and the nature of chronic pain can cause delays. Allow extra time for your visit and be patient, as your doctor aims to provide thorough care for everyone.
