The
ethos of the Waldegrave Clinic is to promote health care in an integrated
way. It is an independent, private clinic, which began in
1972 as a chiropractic clinic and moved to its present site in 1989.
It has successfully grown since that time and now incorporates
seven branches of medicine. The aim of the clinic is to combine
the complementary therapies with orthodox medicine to best serve
the health needs of the patient.

When
you should arrive
We suggest that you arrive ten
minutes before your appointment time in order to complete a registration
form.
What to bring with you
Any medical referral letters which
you may have been given.
Any recent X–rays you may have in your possession.
What happens at the first appointment
After registration you will be taken into
a private treatment room and you may, of course, bring a relative
or friend to accompany you. You will be asked questions about
your condition by the practitioner and, if the practitioner feels
he/she may be able to help you, a treatment programme will be discussed.
Payment
We ask that patients pay after each visit
and a full printout of payments may be requested at any time if
required for insurance purposes. The clinic does not run an
accounts system to reduce administration overheads. Fees may
vary for each therapy and details of current prices can be obtained
by telephoning reception.
Insurance companies will normally reimburse patients directly.
