If you’re new here or just want clarity before booking, these are the questions we hear most.
Short answers. Straight talk. No sales fog.
Every new patient starts with a free 5–10 minute consult with Dr. B to see if your case qualifies for care here.
If it does, you’ll move into a full exam, x-rays, clear explanations, and a plan that actually makes sense.
No rushing. No pressure. No guessing. See more on our new patients page.
That depends on:
The condition. How long it’s been there. How your body responds.
Some plans are short. Some take more time.
The goal is measurable progress, not endless appointments.
Spinal decompression gently reduces pressure on discs and nerves to help the body heal naturally.
It’s commonly used for disc injuries, sciatica, and nerve-related back or neck pain, especially when other treatments haven’t worked.
Adjustments help restore proper joint movement and nervous system communication.
At SDCC, they’re used thoughtfully and as part of a bigger plan, not quick in-and-out visits.
Shockwave therapy stimulates blood flow and tissue repair in stubborn, slow-healing areas.
It’s often used for frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, plantar fasciitis, arthritis in the hands, and chronic knee pain.
Cold laser therapy uses light energy to support tissue healing and reduce inflammation.
It’s gentle, painless, and commonly used alongside other treatments to speed recovery.
Yes. All care is based on your exam findings, health history, and comfort level.
If something isn’t appropriate for you, it won’t be recommended. Simple as that.
SDCC is a cash-based clinic.
That means your care is based on your exam findings, health history, and comfort level — not insurance rules or one-size-fits-all treatment plans.
If something isn’t appropriate for you, we won’t recommend it.
Many of our patients still have insurance, and we provide detailed receipts with billing codes you can submit for possible reimbursement.
You’ll receive clear pricing and options before starting care.
No surprise charges.
No hidden fees.
No pressure to commit if it’s not the right fit.
We’ll tell you.
If your condition doesn’t qualify for care here, we’ll help guide you to the right next step. The goal is the right care, not just filling the schedule.
