Today Dr. Fisher talks about why chiropractors need to perform a new patient consultation, examination and take x-rays to properly determine what is wrong with their patients before they administer treatment. Some new patients who are afraid of costs want to minimize their conditions to minimize their amount of treatment by attempting to dictate their own care by their doctor. As a doctor you can not allow your patients to direct their care as it will set you up for liability. Train your staff so they know how to handle patients who want to control their own care without being properly evaluated first.
