What can you expect from your Initial consultation at SCSC
First and foremost we need to understand your medical and health history. Unfortunately many health problems can mimic disorders of the spine and, as such, we will discuss your history in some detail. This will be followed by a comprehensive examination in order to make the most accurate diagnosis. The initial consultation will usually take between 40 minutes and 1 hour, depending upon the complexity of your case. Whilst a physical examination is very important, your modesty will be preserved at all times and all treatment rooms are independent and completely private. Please be assured that if we do not think that we can help you, or if our examination reveals any additional concerns, we will refer you appropriately and liaise with your general practitioner on your behalf.
Most radiological services are provided by South East Radiology locally at Batemans Bay hospital and Moruya. Being a rural area some specialist imaging (MRI) will require travel to either Nowra, Bega or Canberra. South East Radiology services the Eurobodalla and Far South Coast areas with an experienced team of radiologists and state of the art equipment enabling them to give all our patients the best care available.
