Helpful Tips

  • When scheduling your appointment, it’s extremely helpful if you let our stuff know anything and everything you’ll be coming in to see us for ahead of time. Some patients have several issues, and we want to make sure we set aside enough time to address all your concerns. Appointment duration is catered to you, the patient, not a premade schedule on a computer! 
  • Wear comfortable clothes if possible. We understand some of our patients’ appointments are made during their work day, so we completely understand if you need to arrive in work attire. 
  • Bring a few pairs of shoes! Part of understanding your issue might involve looking at what kinds of shoes you wear on a daily basis. Our shoes tell us a story about how we walk. Assessing for extra wear and tear in certain areas of your shoes helps us understand how you walk, why you might be in pain, and what we need to do to get you feeling better quickly!
  • Bring a photo ID
  • Bring your insurance card
