Doctors Who Listen: What to Expect From Your New Patient Experience

Are you a parent who’s ever felt utterly frustrated because your child’s pediatrician or traditional doctors just won’t listen? Have you asked questions about the causes of your child’s illness or challenges, only to be dismissed and told it’s all in their genetics? Or worse, have you inquired about drug-free, natural health solutions only to be met with ridicule or indifference? If so, you’re not alone.

At Live Well Family Chiropractic we understand your frustration, and we’re here to offer a different approach - one that should be the standard of care but often isn’t. We actually listen to you, the parent who knows their child best, because you’ve been with them every step of the way. 

If you’re tired of doctors who don’t listen, don’t explain things clearly, and don’t address the root cause while offering drug-free solutions, this “new” approach to pediatric + family health care is perfect for you. 

Most traditional pediatricians and conventional doctors don’t like receiving questions about what’s really causing a child to get sick and struggle, because nothing in their training is designed to help them know how to do that. Therefore, they are quick to dismiss your questions and concerns, often saying things like “it’s just genetic” or “don’t worry, they’ll grow out of it” – when you know deep down in your mom + dad gut that can’t be true. 

Time for a New Approach 

In order to give you a better understanding of our vastly different approach to pediatric + family health care, we want to dive into what makes our First Visit and Patient Intake Experience unique at Live Well Family Chiropractic. It all starts with one thing – listening! 

Our in-depth consultation and exam process is entirely unique to healthcare, and we’d love to break it down step-by-step for you here. Once we uncover the real root cause of your child’s health challenges, which starts with addressing any dysfunction or imbalance within their nervous system and overall development, we can then begin the process of helping your child heal and recover without the use of medications and all their unwanted side effects. 

Your First Visit 

We Listen First: Every new patient experience with us begins by dedicating ample time to sit down with you either in person or via a dedicated phone consultation. We’ll go deep into your child’s case history, working alongside you to uncover the stressors, injuries, and other factors contributing to their current health challenges.

We Go WAY Back: We don’t stop at current symptoms or challenges, we dig way deeper. We explore your child’s entire journey, from fertility and pregnancy to labor, delivery, and early childhood.  These hidden clues are often overlooked but hold the key to understanding your child’s health. 

We Take Our Time to Explain Everything: After an in-depth case history, we ensure you fully understand Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care, how it works, when you can expect to see changes, and so forth. We break down the science and neurology behind our approach, the Care Plan Process, what to expect during care, and how long it will take. 

We Run Our Exam + Neurological INSiGHT Scans: Our office stands out not only from traditional doctors and specialists but also from other chiropractors. Our advanced INSiGHT Scans allow us to pinpoint the root cause of your child’s health challenges, whether they are digestive, immune, motor, sensory, behavioral, emotional, or anything else because the Nervous System controls every other system in the body. 

The 2nd Visit – Your Child’s Custom Care Plan 

Once we gather all this vital information from the in-depth consultation, case history, INSiGHT Scans, and examination, we’re ready to create your child’s fully personalized and customized Neurological Restoration Care Plan. This plan will be presented to you on the second visit, known as the Report of Findings. 

Once we’ve got this incredible plan in motion, we begin with your child’s Neuro-Tonal Adjustments. These adjustments are quick and gentle, and designed to relieve tension and stress from their nervous system. At the same time as we seek to release built up and stuck tension, these adjustments look to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system + vagus nerve, helping to activate key healing processes such as sleep, digestion, immune function, motor planning, and more. Healing done in this way is both gentle and sequential, and it quickly becomes exciting and encouraging to see your child’s health come back online!
