New Patient Special:
New patients are welcome and can take advantage of our $75 first visit special, which includes a thorough consultation, complete spinal examination, digital x-rays if needed, and a report of findings.
No pressure, no obligation. Just an honest conversation about what is going on and whether we can help.
What to Expect on Your First Visit
Your first visit at Loop Spine & Sports Center is designed to give you answers and get you started, not drag the process out over multiple appointments.
​
Here is how it goes.
​
When you arrive you will be greeted by our front desk and asked to complete a brief intake form if you have not already done so online. From there you will meet with Dr. Trottier for a thorough consultation. He will take a detailed history, ask about your symptoms, how long you have had them, what makes them better or worse, and what you have already tried. That conversation shapes everything that follows.
​
After the consultation Dr. Trottier will perform a complete spinal examination including orthopedic and neurological testing relevant to your condition. If digital x-rays are clinically indicated they will be taken in office during the same visit. Once the examination is complete he will review his findings with you in plain language, explain what he found, what he recommends, and why. No confusing jargon, no pressure to commit to anything before you understand the plan.
​
In most cases treatment begins the same day. You will not be asked to come back for a separate report of findings appointment or wait until your next visit to start feeling better. If chiropractic care is appropriate for your condition, Dr. Trottier will get started that day.
​
Most first visits take approximately one hour from arrival to completion depending on the complexity of your case and whether massage therapy is included.
What To Bring
To make your first visit as smooth as possible, please bring the following:
​
Your insurance card and a valid photo ID. If you have more than one insurance plan bring cards for both.
​
Any relevant imaging you have had done, including MRI reports, x-ray films or reports, or any other diagnostic studies related to your current condition. If you have them digitally on your phone that works too.
​
A list of any current medications if you have one handy, particularly anything you are taking for pain or inflammation.
​
If you have seen other providers for your current condition and have records or notes from those visits, those can be helpful as well though they are not required.
​
If you would like to get a head start you can complete our new patient intake form online before your visit using the link below. It only takes a few minutes and allows us to get right to your consultation when you arrive.

"I Highly Recommend This Team!"​
I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Trottier and his assistant Monica. This is the first chiropractor who has truly made a noticeable difference in my lower back pain. After each visit, I feel significantly better—honestly, like I could do a somersault (kidding, but almost!).
Dr. Trottier is knowledgeable, attentive, and really takes the time to understand what’s going on with your body. His approach feels personalized and effective, which made a huge difference for me.
Monica, his assistant, is just as amazing. She’s always so kind, welcoming, and incredibly helpful, making the entire experience smooth from start to finish.
If you’re dealing with back issues and looking for real relief, I highly recommend this team!

"It Was Great"​
This was my first time at a chiropractor, and it was great! Dr. Trottier explained in depth what was causing my back pain how to resolve the issue.
After the first adjustment I noticed a difference! Definitely going to continue my treatment plan.

"I Am Pain Free"​
I’ve been consistently coming to this practice for about 6 months now. The staff has become like family! They are so kind and have taught me so much! My back and hips have gotten so much stronger
Honestly could not have gone better. As a new patient to chiropractic services I had no idea what was going on, but they were so thorough, generous and helpful. Extremely happy with their support!

"Very Positive"​
This was my first visit and my overall experience was very positive. I came in for lower and upper back pain. Everyone was professional and friendly.
I was seen by the doctor with no delays, I had time to explain what was wrong, get treatment, and talk about next steps.
The process and any associated costs were clearly explained to me ahead of my appointment, which was very much appreciated and put my mind at ease that there will be no surprises or hidden costs.
I am going back for follow up treatment and I would recommend this facility.
