During Your Initial Consultation & Exam
You’ll meet one-on-one with Dr. Frank to discuss your health history, symptoms, concerns, and goals. Every story is unique, and sometimes, a small detail makes all the difference in how we approach your care.
After the consultation, Dr. Frank will perform a thorough examination, which may include a range of motion testing, orthopedic and neurological checks, and X-rays if needed. If you have an MRI he will be able to review that as well. These steps help us understand what’s happening beneath the surface so we can recommend care that fits your individual situation.
Providing Clear Recommendations — No Surprises
If it’s determined that we can help, you’ll get a thorough explanation of what’s contributing to your pain or discomfort and outline a clear care plan. You’ll know how often to visit, how long care is expected to take, and all financial details upfront. Dr. Frank doesn’t like surprises so he will make sure there are no surprises for you when it comes to your care plan and finances. We will even verify any possible insurance benefits before moving forward. If in the end Dr. Frank sees that we are not the right fit for your condition. We will help you find the right provider that might better suit your needs.
