What to Expect

You will immediately feel at home the moment you walk in the door.
If you’ve ever gone to a social event where you didn’t know anyone, you know how uncomfortable that can make you feel. Our goal is to eliminate every shred of apprehension and make you feel at home.
Since chiropractic care involves a series of visits, with each one building on the ones before, it’s important that our relationship can go the distance. We’ve found that one of the best ways to have successful patient relationships is to explain everything in advance. No surprises!
The more you understand who we are, what we do and why we do it, the better results you’ll enjoy. It’s as simple as that.
Let’s Get Started!
New Patient Paperwork
At McKinley Chiropractic, our new patients have the two options to choose from for completing the necessary New Patient Paperwork for their first appointment.
- After you’ve scheduled your first appointment, we will send you an email with the necessary log-in credentials to access our patient portal. Take a few minutes to enter the requested information, and feel free to call us with any questions.
- If you’d prefer to wait until the day of your appointment, that will be great! We ask that you arrive 15 minutes early to allow enough time to complete the intake forms before meeting Dr. McKinley.
Your First Visit
Make Yourself at Home
You’ll be greeted by name when you enter our practice and given a short tour to get you acquainted with our facilities.
If you chose to complete your paperwork, online when your appointment was scheduled, great! If not, we ask that you arrive 15 minutes early to your first appointment to complete the intake forms before getting started.
We Explain Everything First
The purpose of your pre-care consultation is to discuss your health goals and see if you’re a good candidate for chiropractic care. If it looks promising, a thorough examination will help us identify the likely cause of your problem.
Patients appreciate that we explain everything in advance! Don’t wait! Contact McKinley Chiropractic today to get started with care.
Your Second Visit

On your report visit we explain what we found and how we may be able to help you.
On your report visit, we explain what we found and how we may be able to help you.
After we study your health history and correlate our examination findings, we’ll make recommendations designed to help you get and keep your health. We call this the Report of Findings.
This is usually attended to on your second visit, which may be later the same day or the following day. This two-visit approach accomplishes several things:
- Reduces the length of your first visit
- Gives us time to correlate our findings
- Avoids overloading you with too much information
In certain circumstances we make exceptions. It just depends on your unique situation.
