- Verify the license with the Tennessee Board of Chiropractic Examiners and check for disciplinary actions.
- Ask about your condition. Has the chiropractor treated it often? What does a typical plan look like, and how will progress be measured?
- Ask for prices in writing, including the first visit, X-rays (if any) and follow-ups. Compare with typical local prices on FAIR Health Consumer.
