Your first visit typically will run 45 minutes to 1 hour in length,
depending on your condition(s).
Prior to your first appointment, you will need to complete your
patient data sheet.
Please click on your doctor's name to download the appropriate
data sheet (pdf format).
Dr. Dean McGee
Dr. Thane Perrier
This information allows the doctor(s) to have a broad overview
of your health condition(s), as well as your family’s health
history, personal diet, exercise habits, and what patient care you
have received in the past. It also gives us basic contact information
as well as billing information if you would like us to file insurance
for you. If you are unable to complete the patient data sheet prior
to your appointment, we ask that you arrive 30 minutes early to
allow adequate time to fully complete this information. If your
form is fully completed, we ask that you arrive 10 minutes early.
After reviewing your patient data sheet, your vital signs such
as height, weight and blood pressure will be assessed. Your doctor
will then perform a thorough orthopedic and neurological examination
including posture analysis, and a detailed muscle performance evaluation
related to your concern. These services will be performed exclusively
by your doctor. Any recent imaging or labs such as x-ray, MRI or
blood work relating to your concern you bring in will be helpful
and reviewed as part of your visit.
At the end of the examination, your doctor will give a complete
report of his findings, answering 3 important questions:
1. What is wrong
2. Can we help, and
3. How long should it take.
Of course your doctor will answer any additional questions you
might have, as well as explanation of therapies. In some circumstances
imaging and or additional testing will be required and will be referred
to the appropriate lab or imaging center. In most cases you can
be treated that day if you so choose, as time allows.
