What to expect as a member of the T-Force Family
We believe it is important for the members of our T-Force family to be knowledgable about the care they are receiving. The following section will set expectations of our T-Force family. We encourage all participants to ask questions, seek knowledge, and push limits: there are no bounds to the growth we can achieve by working together as a team and family.
As A Patient
Your first appointment will last 1 hour, all follow-up appointments will be 30 minutes
You will receive paperwork to complete prior to your first appointment
Please have this completed, this allows us to spend more time focusing on you, the patient.
You will find screening forms in this packet this helps us narrow down what symptoms are attributing to your health
You will have at least 2 forms to fill out prior to every visit
Each provider may have a different scope of practice, please have some goals ready of what you would like to accomplish in your life.
If a provider does not feel like they can help you meet your goals, they may refer you to a provider that can help you meet your goals.
