New Patient Paperwork
If possible, please download and complete these Patient Information Forms prior to arriving for your first appointment. We ask that you complete this paperwork in advance so that you have the time you need to carefully consider your answers and assess your personal needs, as well as make the most out of your office time with Park City chiropractor, Dr. Shearman.
Consultation and Evaluation
On your initial chiropractic visit, Dr. Shearman does a thorough “evaluation” of your current problem areas. He will also discuss your current health with you, including dietary and exercise habits, your medical history, and previous care received.
Physical, neurological, and orthopedic examinations will be performed (as required), and your spinal and muscular condition will be assessed in order to discover what may be causing your pain… and how best to treat it!
If Dr. Shearman deems it necessary that x-rays are needed he will refer you to an office nearby for the appropriate films.
Treatment Plan
Based on the information learned from your evaluation appointment, Dr. Shearman will complete your recommendation and treatment plan. You may have been to other clinics where you were made to feel like the doctor or staff were pushing you to get more treatment than you were comfortable with. Rest assured that Dr. Shearman doesn’t work that way. He will put together a treatment plan that is ideal for you. You can choose to do it all, none of it or you can do it in baby steps. The pace and amount of treatment you receive is entirely up to you; just make the decision that best fits your needs. Dr. Shearman never wants you to feel pressured to get more treatment than you’re comfortable with.
How long is the first appointment?
Please plan at least 20 minutes to complete your paperwork at your first visit (if you did not complete it before coming into the office), and allow about 30 minutes for your evaluation and consultation with the doctor. We don’t rush you, as understanding your unique health situation is our goal.
Treatment
Once Dr. Shearman identifies the cause of your health problem, he may begin care by administering chiropractic adjustments and/or soft-tissue therapies.
An “adjustment,” a term you may have heard already, means a specific manipulation of a joint in the body which has abnormal movement patterns or fails to function normally (including the joints in your spine!). The adjustment can be given by hand or using chiropractic tools, and consists of applying pressure to the joint areas that are out of alignment or that do not move properly within their normal range of motion.
