We Make It Easy to Get Started
Your first visit begins with a thorough consultation and clinical evaluation. Dr. Block will take a detailed history, perform orthopedic and neurological testing, and identify the specific structure generating your pain. You'll leave with a clear diagnosis and a treatment plan built around it.
Most patients are seen within a few days of calling. No referral is required for most insurance plans, and we accept workers' compensation and no-fault auto insurance.
Your First Visit, Step by Step
Consultation
Dr. Block reviews your history, symptoms, and prior treatment. He listens carefully — understanding the full picture is essential to accurate diagnosis.
Clinical Evaluation

Diagnosis
Dr. Block explains exactly what he found, what it means, and why it's causing your symptoms. No vague explanations — you'll understand your condition.
Treatment Plan
A specific, individualized plan built around your diagnosis. You'll know what treatment to expect, how many visits are likely, and what you can do at home.
First Treatment
