First, your physician will meet with you and carefully listen and document your concerns and symptoms. then, after your exam and records review, a comprehensive treatment plan will be devised just for you. Each patient is unique, therefore, all spine conditions and back pain are different. You can trust your spine doctor to review, study, and research your condition and situation. Thus, at the end of your initial visit, if you have all of your testing required, you and your spine doctor, together, will collaborate on a conservative, researched-based treatment plan. As always, your team of spine specialists’ goal is to get you back to living the life you want.

Bring Past Testing to your Appointment

Also, it is extremely important that each patient bring actual copies of all previous testing and reports. Including, their films and/or any diagnostic testing along with the reports for physicians to review. So that, by combining a physical examination, symptoms, and diagnostic imaging, your physician will have a really good perspective of your condition. It’s the final piece of the puzzle to allow your physician to get a complete picture of your anatomy. Utilizing all your testing and reports will provide a “look into the body” and see your anatomy. As a result, this complete evaluation will help your spine doctor to properly diagnose the cause of your pain and look for a solution. Additionally, should you need an X-ray, our office is equipped with X-ray machines for the convenience of our patients. And, we also have a low-dose 3-D EOS X-ray machine available at our Dallas office. 

Treatment Plans

Critically, treatment plans are devised by collaboration between your spine doctor, you, and your family. Of course, it is a team effort to figure out what each patient needs, how to stop the pain, and the optimal way to achieve the best results. Additionally, your physician wants the least invasive procedure for you. That’s why all treatment plans begin with very conservative treatment measures. Importantly, your spine doctor knows that most pain can be resolved with a conservative prescription of medicine, injections, and/or exercise. To that end, that’s why they spend lots of time reviewing each patient’s test results, to design a treatment plan just for you.
