Answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.

What age child do you see?

Brand new out of the womb to age 12.
​I have 3 other doctors in my office that are wonderful and highly capable of taking care of teens-age 100 so I can focus on the children. 

How do you work on a baby? I am nervous about this. Do I just come once or is this something I have to do several times? ​

Nothing to be nervous about! I will explain everything to you and be so incredibly gentle your fears will melt away. Let's start with one visit and after I examine your precious child, I will then be able to determine what the issues are and how long it will take to fix it. Remember, I have been doing this for over 25 years so have worked on thousands of babies. You are in the best hands!

Will chiropractic care help?

We will determine that! I will certainly not suggest care for your child if I do not feel there is something my skills can help with. It all starts with an exam so I can see and feel what is happening. Because I combine my chiropractic training with knowlege of lactation and craniosacral work, I can merge many different therapies into one. 

Does insurance cover my visit? What will my cost be?

My office accepts many types of health insurance and is in network with most plans. If your plan covers chiropractic care, then we accept it. If not, we will discuss the costs involved based upon the treatments required. You can use your FSA card too. Call your insurance company and ask them if chiropactic care is covered under your plan. They will tell you if you have a deductible to meet first, how many visits will be covered, what copay you might have or if there is a coinsurance.

Do you work on adults?

I do not accept adult new patients.  There are so many infants and children needing care and with my unique speciality that noone else offers in New England,  my time is dedicated to children. ​

How does the lactation portion of things work? I know you will watch a feed but do I have to pay for that?

If a lactation evaluation is necessary as part of the evaluation process, we will collect the lactating mother's insurance info. If feeding if difficult, then we need to see WHAT about the feeding process is not working well.  We will bill the lactating mother's insurance on your behalf and you will be responsible for the copay involved with your visit.  If follow up visits are needed, we will determine if your insurance will cover this or if you need to pay out of pocket and submit for reimbursement. It depends on your type of insurance.
