First Visit

When you first walk into our Abbeville office our goal is for you to feel right at home.  Kerry will greet you and help you through the usual first visit paperwork that allows us to get a good idea of your history and present complaint.

You'll be warmly greeted at the front desk of our Abbeville office.

Next, you will be escorted to one of our evaluation rooms where you will meet your doctor.  If you are here for medical care, you will see Dr. John Guy and if you are here for chiropractic care, you will see Dr. Matthew Durham.  Either way you will have a chance to discuss your problem and have an evaluation to find the cause of your problem or concern. 

Next any additional tests will be performed, such as X-rays, MRI, or labwork.  Some tests are done here in the office and others are done at other facilities.  If no outside testing is necessary we will study the results of your evaluation and formulate a care plan specifically for you and present our findings to you.  If we feel that our treatment could be of benefit to you, you will be given the oportunity to begin care.  If not we will discuss your other options for care elsewhere.  If you elect to begin care, Courtney will discuss several ways that we make it affordable to regain your health here with us.

You should plan on being here with us for about an hour on this first visit.

Dr Durham Asks some important questions of interest to Abbeville residents - Chiropractor Abbeville Dr Durham Asks...

Can chiropractic relieve PMS?
If you have subluxations, especially in the lower spine that impair nerves that direct and monitor the reproductive and hormonal systems, chiropractic could be helpful. Undetected subluxations may also be responsible for pelvic pain, incontinence, sexual dysfunction and even infertility. Maybe chiropractic can help. Find out!
What happens if you stop chiropractic care when you feel better?
Many Abbeville folks recognize that this predisposes you to a relapse. Chiropractors know that muscles and ligaments supporting the spine don't fully heal until after symptoms subside.
