From my clinical observation, I believe that, many times, this is the most important component that I include in my treatment protocol, and, in my opinion, it is the one that is most often overlooked by many clinicians. Injured joints, muscles and ligaments heal slowly. Our patients are followed closely in this practice. Communication is an important part of recovery. Patients are followed weekly at first, and then in gradually fewer visits as we begin to see progressive improvement.
Most patients are asymptomatic in a matter of two to three months.
Following an appropriate healing time, which could be six months or longer, the patient is re-evaluated to determine the need, if any, for any additional treatment to stabilize and support the positive result. So, in short, my practice philosophy is an ongoing evolution. I am very comfortable with change, if the reasons for that change can be demonstrated to be beneficial to the patients that we serve. In this office our patients are treated with dignity and respect. No one is hurried or rushed.
