New patients often remark how “homey” our office is. That’s good, because our goal is to offer state-of-the-art chiropractic care in a comfortable surrounding. So, make yourself at home!
Make Yourself at Home
You’ll find plenty of convenient parking and a well-lit parking lot. You’ll be greeted by name when you enter our office and given a short tour to get you acquainted with our facilities.
If you’ve already completed your admitting paperwork, great! If not, after doing so we’ll likely show you a short 5-minute video and then you’ll meet one of our Doctors.
We Explain Everything First
The purpose of your consultation with the doctor is to discuss your health goals and see if chiropractic is likely to help you. If it looks promising, a thorough examination will help identify the cause of your problem.
Our Morgantown area patients appreciate that we explain everything in advance!
On your Second Visit we will review all of the exam findings from todays initial visit.
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 day. 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 one of our Doctors, we sometimes make exceptions. It just depends on your unique situation.Your Regular visits will not be as long as your first or second visits to Advantage Health and Wellness.
Regular Visits at Advantage Health and Wellness
After the investment of time needed on the first and second visits, many patients become concerned that every visit will be of equal length.
In a word: no. A typical office visit may require 5-10 minutes IF you are getting an adjustment. Our goal for full therapy that includes our most effective services combined, is to get a person out of the office in less than 90 minutes.
But don’t think the brevity of a regular visit lessens its value! With the groundwork laid, we can quickly size up what your spine and nervous system, adjust you and get you on your way.
Like a regular workout at the gym, each visit builds on the ones before. Miss a visit and we can lose the momentum necessary to make the needed changes.
We recognize your time is valuable. We do everything possible to run on time and minimize the impact on your busy life.
Cancellation Policy: We try to make our schedule very convenient for our patients. In order to accomplish this, we require that you give us 24 hrs notice for rescheduling your appointment. To avoid a $25 no show fee, just call Advantage Health and Wellness at (304) 225-9355 and we’ll change our schedule for you and help you find a better time to make you appointment. We thank you for the courtesy.
