John D. Marlow R.N., D.C. Dr. John Marlow is a graduate of the Northwestern School of Chiropractic in 1991. He is also a registered nurse, so is able to draw on his medical knowledge in diagnosing and treating patients. Dr. Marlow has treated:
Many times a person comes to me with a special complaint-neck or back pain, for example. Before anyone is treated, I take a thorough medical history. During this time my most important role is to listen. My registered nurse's training has honed my listening and observation skills-allowing me to serve my patients better. What is the patient really saying? How is she acting? What's going on with him? Then I do a complete examination, and if needed, refer a new patient to get an X-ray, scan, MRI or other tests. When I have studied everything I have learned about the patient I then put together an unique and detailed treatment plan to make sure the patient gets the individual care they need to become well and whole again. I believe that Chiropractic care is an important part of a persons overall wellness. Many people have regularly scheduled adjustments on a periodic basis. |
