Q: Do I Need a Referral to See a Chiropractor?

In most cases, no—you do not need a referral to schedule an appointment with a chiropractor in Arizona. Most patients can contact Chandler Chiropractic directly and schedule their first visit without seeing another healthcare provider first or obtaining a referral. What If I Have Medicare? If you have Original Medicare , you generally do not need a referral to see a chiropractor. However, some Medicare Advantage, replacement, or supplemental plans may have their own requirements. Depending on your individual plan, a referral or other authorization may be required for chiropractic benefits. Because these plans can vary, it's always a good idea to verify the requirements of your particular policy. If you're unsure, give our office a call. Our team can help you understand what information may be needed and work with you to verify your chiropractic benefits. What About Other Insurance Plans? Most of the general insurance plans we work with do not require patients to obtain a referral before seeing a chiropractor. Insurance policies and benefits can change, however, so we'll always work to verify the details of your individual coverage rather than making assumptions based solely on the name of your insurance company. Don't let uncertainty about a referral keep you from calling. Our team deals with insurance questions every day and can help you determine what applies to your particular situation before you begin care.

Q: What Should I Bring to My First Chiropractic Appointment?

What you'll need depends somewhat on your individual situation, but you should bring a few basic items can help make your first visit to Chandler Chiropractic go smoothly.

Our team will help you determine what's actually needed based on your circumstances. What Should I Bring If I Was Injured in a Car Accident? If you're coming to Chandler Chiropractic following an auto accident or other personal injury, we'll need some additional information so our team can properly document your case. When available, please bring: Your auto insurance information Accident and claim information Your claim number Attorney information, if you're working with an attorney Any previous imaging, medical records, or other information related to the accident Your photo ID and health insurance information, when applicable If you're unsure what you need, don't let that keep you from scheduling or coming to your appointment.

Our goal is to make getting started as simple as possible so that when you arrive, we can focus our attention where it belongs—on you.

Q: What Should I Wear to My First Chiropractic Appointment?

Wear whatever you're comfortable in. You don't need special clothing for your first visit to Chandler Chiropractic. Comfortable clothes that allow you to move easily can be helpful during the examination, but there's no need to change your normal routine just for your appointment. What If I'm Wearing a Dress or Skirt? No problem. We have shorts and gowns available in the office if your doctor needs them for your examination or X-rays. Your comfort and privacy are important to us, and we'll explain anything that's needed before proceeding. What About Jewelry and Shoes? If X-rays are needed, jewelry and other metal items in the area being imaged may need to be removed. Wearing less jewelry can simply make that part of your visit a little easier. Shoes that are easy to take on and off can also be convenient, but they're certainly not required. Most importantly, come as you are. We'll provide anything special you may need for your examination or X-rays and make the process as comfortable and easy as possible.
