One thing I really appreciated was that they did a complete physical history on me. Which I believe is essential to treating a patient.

I have mild, late onset, rotary scoliosis. My mother has the same and progressed from zero to severely affected over a 10-15 year period. . I don't want that to happen to me so I'm seeking prevention/mitigation. One hip already looks different than the other. There is apparently nothing to be done about it unless it gets worse, and nothing will change the current condition. Mitigation consists of back and core strengthening. My hip and back areas hurt every day. The visit was anticlimactic. My issue progressed from zero problem and zero pain to visible body changes and daily, consistent pain in less two years' time, with physical therapy and exercise intervention. I'm scared for the future and feel the followup scheduled for one year will show even more deterioration.
