Patient Forms

Upon entering our office, our receptionist will  welcome you as a member of our family.  We will request that you complete our  patient forms after we give you a brief tour of the office. You may also print and complete our patient forms from this website and bring them with you. This will help you save time and allow us to serve you more efficiently.To access them, from the home page click on the "New Patient Center" tab, and then click on "Online Forms" from the drop down menu.

Consultation

Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Andrew St. Bernard to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr. Andrew St. Bernard to learn more about you, your condition, and  expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.

Examination

After your consultation, Dr. Andrew St. Bernard will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes and flexibility. Other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests may be performed as well. However, nothing  will be done in our office without your consent.

X-Ray Studies

Depending on your specific condition, we may take X-rays as well. X-rays help us develop  the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of  any serious spinal conditions. Most people are amazed once they see their X-rays up close. In some cases, they can even identify their misalignments and degeneration themselves.

Report of Findings

On the next visit, you will watch a 10 minute video that will help you to better understand your x-rays when they are explained. Then Dr. Andrew St. Bernard will give you a detailed report of all findings and answer any questions including:

1. How can you help me?
2. How often do I need to come in?
3. What  will  my treatment  cost?

After reviewing your health history,  goals, and examining your spine and X-rays, Dr. Andrew St. Bernard will discuss his findings and recommendations for your case.   Dr. Andrew St. Bernard  will  provide the best  treatment and  wellness program for your needs.

Adjustment

 After the report of findings, you can choose to begin care and experience your first chiropractic adjustment! Dr. Andrew St. Bernard uses various adjusting techniques, so if for any reason you are not comfortable with the chosen method, just let us know and we would be happy to explore other technique options.

Wellness Program

Prior to leaving, the doctor will suggest a  wellness program  to incorporate outside of treatment.  If you are in pain when you first come into our office this may include: ice or heat application instructions, certain activities or positions to avoid, and at home exercises and/or stretches.  If you desire,  our wellness team will work with you also to create healthy habits and routines for your lifestyle.  Every person is unique, therefore everyone requires a  customized wellness plan.  The purpose  of our wellness program is for   you  to achieve good spinal alignment, have a  healthy diet, exercise, and maintain a positive mental state.
