New Patients

Your first visit to Windmill Health Center establishes a vital foundation for our relationship with you. During the first visit, we make sure to obtain important background information pertaining to the nature of your complaint, your medical history, your social history and other information, while giving you time to get to know your Weston chiropractor. As our patient, you will undergo all of the proper diagnostic procedures to assure that your treatment will be personalized to your needs. Remember being a good doctor is also being a good historian.

There’s background information about our first visit procedures. You can even save some time at your first visit by going to our “Online Forms” page and printing out and completing the new patient form in advance of your appointment.

Weston Chiropractors Dr. Rick Behar & Dr. Marc Browner will require you to provide your medical history, which will be essential for them in preparing a course of treatment for you. Your other doctors and medical records, such as diagnostic testing, or imaging results, such as X-rays and MRI’s, will also provide important information about your condition.

There are certain things in your health history that are particularly vital to a chiropractor. This information could provide important clues that will allow Dr. Behar & Dr. Browner to properly diagnose and treat your problem. These clues include whether you have or have had:

• Previous injuries, like automobile, sports or workers compensation accidents
• Heart conditions such as hypertension or high blood pressure
• Bone disorders, such as fractures or osteoporosis
• Previous disc injuries like bulging, protrusion, or herniation
• Joint disorders such as arthritis
• Dizziness or blurred vision
• Infections, especially those affecting your spine

Be prepared to answer questions that you may think are not important, because every answer is another piece of the puzzle that when added together gives us the complete picture of you, the newest member of our family.
