When you arrive at Albany Chiropractic & Massage Clinic for your first visit, you can expect the appointment to last around 30 minutes. Dr. Awad will begin by asking you to fill out some initial exam forms to gather some basic information about your medical history and the area of injury.

After completing the forms, Dr. Awad will take a detailed history of your health and the specific injury you are seeking treatment for. This information will help him better understand your unique situation and develop an effective treatment plan for you.

Next, Dr. Awad will conduct a thorough spinal and muscle exam to assess your overall health and pinpoint the root of the problem. In some cases, he may need to send you down the hall for x-rays to get a clearer picture of the issue.

If it is possible to treat your injury on the same day, Dr. Awad will do so. However, some patients may have to wait until their second visit to receive treatment, depending on the severity of the injury.

At the end of your first visit, Dr. Awad will explain his findings and provide you with a recommended treatment plan. This plan will be tailored to your unique situation and may include adjustments, therapies, or exercises to help you heal and prevent further injury.

If you have any questions about your treatment plan or what to expect in your next visit, Dr. Awad and his team will be happy to answer them for you. Contact us today to make an appointment and start your journey to recovery.
