International Patients

For the first appointment, we need to conduct a Structural Test. It’s conducted to determine exactly where the problem is, how severe the damage is, and determine the most precise way to correct it. The Structural Test fee is 350 for morning and early afternoon appointments only, evening appointment is 550 price.
Do you take insurance? 
We don’t accept insurance, no fault, worker’s comp, or Medicare / Medicaid. If your plan has out of network benefits, we will provide you a superbill to file with your insurance company.

What does the structural test include?

The Structural Test is very thorough, plan 90 mins for going over your paperwork, consultation where we review your history, all X-rays needed, Structural Test, and your first structural correction. Please arrive 30 mins before your appointment, late appointment will be rescheduled.
How may I schedule an appointment?
Email us at [email protected] or call us at 212.486.9800 to schedule your first appointment. One of our receptionists will help you schedule an appointment. Please be aware that we do require a 100 deposit when scheduling an appointment. This goes towards the cost of the appointment, in which the remaining balance is due the day of the appointment.
IMPORTANT: We recommend scheduling an appointment with us prior to booking flight/hotel accommodations. Appointments get booked quickly and may not be available by the time you contact us again. It is easier to cancel/ reschedule an appointment with us in case of flight delays/cancellations than it is to cancel flights/hotel accommodations.

I am an out of town/international patient. How long should I stay for continual care?
It is hard to determine exactly how long you would need to stay in town for your chiropractic care, but a general rule of thumb, we recommend staying in town for at least 2-4 weeks. If you have any Gonstead Chiropractors near your hometown, we can recommend you to them for continual care.
 
Where should I stay?
There are many options to pick from when it comes to staying in NYC. Check the following websites and choose what is right for you.
I need a medical visa due to my country regulations. Can you help me?
We can help with creating a visa letter for you to obtain a temporary visa for the U.S. It is best to pass along any medical documentation to us, the estimated amount of time you will stay in town. We will create a visa explaining the reason why you are coming into the U.S. for chiropractic care, the information we have received about your health information, as well as a receipt with the deposit made to us. This is so the consulate is aware that you have invested money into coming into town.
Many consulate offices request that you explain why you can not or have exhausted all other options in your place of residency before seeking help elsewhere. Make sure to include all of your medical records.
We recommend booking an appointment at least 6-8 weeks prior to your scheduled appointment. If you are denied a visa, let us know and we will refund you your deposit.
We can not provide a stamp for your visa letter, however, the doctor will be able to sign the letter.
Can my problem be healed/Do you know what’s wrong with me if I tell you?
We cannot possibly diagnose or assess your condition over the phone or message. Just like many other medical professions, we can not claim to cure any diseases or entities. The doctors are experts in the field of Gonstead chiropractic care and use the best available data for their patients to remove any misalignments and restore nerve function.   
 
If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out to us at 212.486.9800 or email at [email protected].

We receive many emails everyday, be patient and we will respond as soon as possible.

We look forward to meeting you and honored to help you with your health!
