Your First Visit

WHAT TO EXPECT ON

We know coming into a new office can be a bit stressful, but we want to make it as easy and enjoyable as possible. Our staff is passionate about serving you and helping you achieve your health goals, and you’ll feel that the moment you walk through our doors. Here is a brief overview of what you can expect from your first visit with Dr. Steven Gage at Evolve Chiropractic in Woodstock, GA.

Complete a New Patient Application

Your first step is to complete a new patient application. This helps us learn about you and your health history, including current and past injuries or physical traumas that could be contributing to your health concerns or that may impact your care plan. The more we know about you, the better we can serve you with personalized care and customized treatment options. Download and fill this out before coming into our office.

One-on-One Consultation

Our one-on-one consultation is a step towards giving you individualized care to help meet your specific health goals. At Evolve Chiropractic, a staff member will sit with you to discuss your new member application, your past and current health concerns, and your health needs and recovery goals. This will help determine whether your condition can be treated properly in our office and what next steps you need to take to be proactive in recovery.
