Welcome to The Steward Clinic! Below you will find the new patient process.
Every new patient process starts with a no-charge phone consultation. The new patient process is spread out over three visits. Below, you will find the entire process in detail
Before The Appointment + Consultation

Step 2: Schedule your new patient examination.
Step 3: Complete the new patient intake forms that will be emailed to you.
Step 3: Forward any past medical records to our clinic.

Step 2: You will discuss your comprehensive health history with Dr. Steward.
Step 3: Dr. Steward will perform a thorough hands-on physical exam, including neurological, autonomic, orthopedic, and upper cervical chiropractic.
