Does our clinic offer direct billing to private insurance companies?

Yes, our clinic offers direct billing to most major private insurance companies such as Canada Life, Sun Life, Manulife, Green Shield, and others. Patients are advised to bring their insurance card or details and confirm their specific plan coverage with their insurer, as coverage amounts and requirements can vary. Patients are responsible for any co-payments or amounts not covered by their plan.

Is it safe to see a chiropractor if I'm pregnant?

Chiropractic care during pregnancy is generally considered safe and can be very effective for managing common musculoskeletal complaints such as back pain, pelvic girdle pain, and sciatica that often arise due to hormonal changes and shifting biomechanics. Chiropractors are trained to work with pregnant women and often use modified adjustment techniques, along with specialized tables or pillows, to ensure the safety and comfort of both mother and baby. Some chiropractors, like Dr. Dubler, are also certified in the Webster Technique, which is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment for pregnant women.

What should I expect during my first chiropractic appointment?

Your first visit typically involves a thorough consultation and examination. Dr. Dubler will discuss your detailed health history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and treatment goals. This is followed by a comprehensive physical assessment, which may include postural analysis, spinal assessment, range of motion tests, orthopedic evaluations, and neurological screenings. Based on these findings, he will discuss a diagnosis or clinical impression and recommend a personalized treatment plan. Some form of treatment or advice may be provided during this initial session, if appropriate.

Do chiropractors only treat back pain?

It's a common misconception that chiropractors only deal with back problems. In reality, Dr. Dubler treats a broad array of conditions affecting the body's structure and function. If you have pain or dysfunction in any joint or muscle—from your jaw to your toes—a chiropractor may be able to help.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropractor in ON?

In Ontario, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals, meaning patients can book an appointment directly without a referral from a medical doctor. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may still require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. It’s advisable to check your specific insurance policy for details.

What are our clinic's operating hours?

Our clinic is typically open Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with some early morning or evening appointments available on select days. We may also offer Saturday appointments from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Please call our office or check our website for the most current hours and practitioner availability.

Is chiropractic care covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

OHIP generally does not cover chiropractic services provided in private clinics for most residents. There are very limited exceptions, such as care delivered within a Community Health Centre or Family Health Team that has integrated chiropractic services, but these are rare. Patients are strongly advised to check with their private insurance plans for coverage details.
