Questionnaires

If you don’t ask, you may never know. Questionnaires are helpful in locating problems you may not be thinking about, unless someone asks. They’re also helpful to monitor progress. We often forget about nagging problems when they stop nagging us, and you might think you’re not improving or getting healthier. For many chronic health problems, it’s as if you were sitting on 10 tacks and feeling miserable. You might be making progress and removed 5 of the tacks, but you still don’t feel great, but you are making progress and that’s a good thing to know.

The first questionnaire is our patient intake form which we require each patient to fill out and return before their first consultation. It helps to ensure that we get a more complete picture of what’s going on with you.

The second questionnaire is the multiple symptom health questionnaire which quantifies how healthy or ill you are. If you score more than a few points, it may be wise to seek some help.
