Your First Step Toward Better Health

Starting your chiropractic journey at Chapel Hill Family Chiropractic is designed to be comfortable, comprehensive, and completely stress-free.

We understand that visiting a new healthcare provider can feel overwhelming, which is why we’ve streamlined our process to focus on what matters most—understanding your needs and beginning your path to wellness immediately.

Before your first visit, we’ll send you paperwork to complete at home, saving you time and allowing us to focus entirely on your care during your appointment. Simply wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement—think of what you’d wear to exercise—and bring any recent medical or radiology reports you might have.

Your Complimentary Consultation

Every new patient journey begins with a complimentary consultation, available either by phone or in person at our Chapel Hill office. This isn’t a sales pitch—it’s your opportunity to meet Dr. Yurkovich, discuss your health concerns openly, and understand exactly how we can help you achieve your goals.

During this consultation, Dr. Yurkovich will listen carefully to your concerns, learn about your health history, and discuss any previous treatments, surgeries, medications, or imaging you’ve had. By the end of this conversation, you’ll have a clear understanding of our approach and how we can address your specific needs.

Your First Appointment

Unlike many practices that require multiple visits before beginning treatment, we believe in getting you started on your healing journey immediately. Your first appointment, lasting 45-60 minutes, includes everything needed for a complete assessment and initial treatment. We’ll handle your check-in process with HIPAA and office policy forms, conduct a thorough consultation, perform a detailed examination, take X-rays if needed, and often provide your first adjustment and any necessary therapy.

This one-visit approach reflects our commitment to respecting your time while ensuring nothing is overlooked. Dr. Yurkovich’s military background means every detail is considered, every concern is addressed, and every treatment decision is made with precision and care.

Building Your Personalized Treatment Plan

Your second visit focuses on reviewing the findings from your initial examination and any X-rays taken during your first appointment. Dr. Yurkovich will explain his findings in clear, understandable terms and present your personalized treatment plan designed specifically for your condition and goals.

We believe in setting realistic expectations and clear communication throughout your care. Financial matters are discussed with Angela, our friendly chiropractic assistant, who will explain your insurance coverage and any payment options available. We accept most major insurance plans, including Medicare, and offer family packages to make care accessible for everyone.

Getting the Most from Your Care

Success in chiropractic care requires partnership between doctor and patient. We encourage you to come to your first visit with a clear goal in mind—whether that’s getting out of pain, returning to a specific activity, or achieving optimal wellness. Having a clearly stated goal helps us tailor your treatment plan and ensures we’re all working toward the same outcome.

Our approach combines traditional chiropractic techniques with advanced therapies like Shockwave treatment when appropriate. Dr. Yurkovich will also provide guidance on exercises and lifestyle modifications that support your healing and help prevent future problems.
