Your first visit, step by step
- A conversation first. Where it hurts, when it started, what makes it better or worse, and what you've already tried.
- An exam. Dr. Stapel checks how you move and looks for signs that point to a disc or nerve problem, or to something else.
- A look at your imaging, if you have it. Bring reports or images. If you don't have an MRI, that's fine. About the free MRI review.
- A straight answer. If decompression looks reasonable, you'll hear the expected schedule and cost before you decide. If not, you'll hear why.
What to bring
- MRI, X-ray or CT reports, or the disc of images
- A list of your current medications
- Dates of past back or neck surgeries, injections or physical therapy
- Your insurance card
- Comfortable clothes you can lie down in

Can I bring my spouse or a family member?
Many people like having someone along to help remember what the doctor says. Ask the office when you book.
What happens if the doctor thinks decompression isn't right for me?
You'll be told so, along with the reason, and you can talk about other options. That may include a referral to a medical doctor, physical therapist or specialist.
