New Patient Center

Welcome to the Charlottesville Family Chiropractic New Patient Center!

Arriving at a doctors office for the first time can be a nerve racking experience. Paperwork to fill out, new faces and names to learn, and getting to know your way around the office; this can hit the senses all at the same time causing overload.

In contrast, at The New Patient Center our aim is to remove any stressor causing unnecessary tension and make you feel comfortable. In this area of the website you will be able to take care of items necessary for your visit prior to arriving, in the comfort of your home.

4) "Drug medications consists of employing, as remedies for disease, those things which produce disease in well persons. Its material medica is simply a lot of drugs or chemicals or dye-stuffs in a word poisons. All are incompatible with vital matter; all produce disease when brought in contact in any manner with the living; all are poisons.

5) "Every drug increases and complicates the patient's condition."

6) "Drugs never cure disease. The merely hush the voice of nature's protest, and pull down the danger signals she erects along the pathway of transgression.

~Daniel H. Kress, M.D.

7) "The greatest part of all chronic disease is created by the suppression of acute disease by drug poisoning."

10) "The person who takes medicine must recover twice, once

from the disease and once from the medicine."

~William Osler, M.D.

11) "Medical practice has neither philosophy nor common sense to recommend it. In sickness, the body is already loaded with impurities. By taking drug-medicines, more impurities are added, thereby the case is further embarrassed and harder to cure."

~Elmer Lee, M.D. Past V.P.- Academy of Medicine

12) "Our figures show approximately four and one half million hospital admissions annually due to the adverse reactions to drugs. Further, the average hospital patient has as much as thirty percent chance, depending how long he is in, of doubling his stay due to adverse drug reactions."

~Milton Silverman, M.D. (Prof of Pharm-Univ of CA)

13) "Why would a patient swallow a poison because he is ill, or take that which would make a well man sick."

~John H. Tilden, M.D.

15) "The necessity of teaching mankind not to take drugs and medicines is a duty incumbent upon all who know their uncertainty and injurious effects; and the time is not far distant when the drug system will be abandoned."

~Charles Armbruster, M.D.

16) "We are prone to thinking of drug abuse in terms of the male population and illicit drugs such as heroin, cocaine, and marijuana. It may surprise you to learn that a greater problem exists with millions of women dependent on legal prescription drugs."

~Robert Mendelsohn, M.D.
