New Patients at North Kildonan Family Chiropractic Centre
Your First Visit
We know stepping into a chiropractic office for the first time can feel a little uncertain, especially if you’ve never experienced this kind of care before. At North Kildonan Family Chiropractic Centre, we want you to feel comfortable, informed, and genuinely cared for from the moment you arrive. Our warm, home-like environment and unhurried approach help you relax and feel confident that you’re in good hands.
Dr. Carter has been serving families in Winnipeg since 1991, and he takes the time to listen to your story, answer your questions, and explain exactly how chiropractic care can help you feel better and function at your best.
What to Bring and How to Prepare
Before your first visit, we ask that you wear comfortable clothing—yoga pants work great for women—and plan to spend about an hour with us. Please bring your insurance information, health card, and any relevant medical documentation you may have. We’ll handle all the paperwork when you arrive, so there’s nothing you need to complete ahead of time. Parking is convenient and free in our lot behind the building, so you can walk in stress-free and ready for your wellness experience.
What Happens During Your First Appointment
When you arrive, you’ll be greeted by our reception team, who will give you some introductory forms to fill out. Once Dr. Carter reviews your forms, he’ll personally meet you and explain what to expect during your visit. He’ll discuss how chiropractic care can help, based on what you’ve shared. Dr. Carter will review your health history, perform some brief exams, complete a computerized nervous system scan using our INSiGHT technology, and take X-rays if necessary. After reviewing your results, he’ll go over his findings with you and provide your first chiropractic adjustment during the same visit. Before you leave, he’ll let you know what to expect and schedule your next appointment.
Gentle Options for Every Comfort Level
We understand some people are nervous about spinal adjustments. That’s why we offer a full range of techniques, including traditional hands-on adjustments, lighter table-assisted methods, and gentle instrument-based care. Your comfort and safety are always our priority.
