GLADSTONE CHIROPRACTIC INFORMED CONSENT TO TREAT
I hereby request and consent to the performance of chiropractic adjustments and other chiropractic procedures, including various modes of physical therapy and diagnostic x-rays and/or other tests on me (or on the patient named below, for whom I am legally responsible) by Dr. Karissa D. Rasmussen and/or other licensed doctors of chiropractic who now or in the future treat me while employed by, working or associated with or serving as back-up for Dr. Karissa D. Rasmussen, including those working at the clinic or office listed or any other office or clinic.
I have had an opportunity to discuss with Dr. Karissa D. Rasmussen and/or with other office or clinic personnel the nature and purpose of chiropractic adjustments and procedures. I understand that results are not guaranteed.
I understand and am informed that, as in the practice of medicine, in the practice of chiropractic there are some risks to treatment, including, but not limited to, fractures, disc injuries, strokes, dislocations, falls, dizziness, headaches, burns with modalities and sprains. I do not expect the doctor to be able to anticipate and explain all risks and complications, and I wish to rely on the doctor to exercise judgment during the course of the procedure which the doctor feels at the time, based upon the facts then known, and is in my best interests.
I have read, or have had read to me, the above consent. I have also had an opportunity to ask questions about its content, and by signing below I agree to the above-named procedures. I intend this consent form to cover the entire course of treatment for my present condition and for any future condition(s) for which I seek treatment.
