Your First Visit to Our Fairfield Practice

You will be warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. Help is on its way!

It can be a little intimidating to come to a doctor's office for the first visit, so lets go over what will happen.

You will be greeted by our front desk staff, sign in, and asked to sit down while we bring you our initial paperwork. There is usually about 5 to 6 pages to look over and fill out. Don't be concerned, most of these just need to be read and then signed.

When you have completed your initial forms, you will be escorted to the consultation/exam room and Dr. Baker will meet you and begin your consultation. Based on that consultation, Dr. Baker will determine what type of exam to perform.

The exam findings will help Dr. Baker determine what x-rays may be needed. We will then refer you to the appropriate x-ray facility to have your x-rays taken. This is great because we will have a medical radiologist read your films and then Dr. Baker will be able to do a chiropractic analysis also. The x-ray clinic will bring the films over to us or you can do that.

We will schedule you for a Report of Findings on your next visit. This all takes about 45 minutes to an hour, so plan accordingly.

Dr. Patrick  Asks some important questions of interest to Fairfield residents - Chiropractor Fairfield Dr. Patrick Asks...

Where do most Fairfield residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Fairfield newborn.
Is average normal or is normal average?
Every chiropractor knows that so-called "normal" is merely an average. What's normal for you may not be normal for anyone else. So the chiropractic approach to better health is to tailor our approach to the unique needs of each of our Fairfield patients.
