What should I bring to my first visit?
Bring any previous X-rays, MRI or CT scans and their reports, a list of the medicines you take, and notes on when your pain started and what makes it better or worse.
Will I need surgery?
Not necessarily. Most back, neck and joint problems are treated first with medication, rehabilitation and pain procedures. Surgery is discussed only when examination and imaging show it is the right option for you.
