Who is Dr. Phelan?
Wake Forest Chiropractic and Dr. Shawn Phelan have been serving Wake Forest, North Raleigh, Wakefield, Youngsville, Franklinton, Rolesville and other communities, near and far since 2000. Dr. Phelan has been in practice since 1992 and has practiced both here in North Carolina and in Los Angeles. In Los Angeles, he ran his private practice within a student health clinic at the Southern California University of Health Sciences, where he both taught interns and saw patients. He continues that role at Wake Forest Chiropractic, seeing patients and teaching athletic trainers participating in a residency at Orthopedic Specialists of North Carolina.
He is an author, an educator and the type of provider that can help patients arrive at an accurate diagnosis and either assist them in healing, or not hesitate to refer them to a provider that will help them. This is evidenced by over 400 reviews that can be found under the Review's tab on this website.
Treatment Philosophy
Conditions treated by Dr. Phelan include migraines, tension headaches, TMJ Dysfunction, neck pain, back pain, leg length inequality, disc herniations and foot pain. He views patients from a holistic standpoint and considers it important to address not only the physical conditions, but where necessary; nutrition, food sensitivities, hormonal imbalances, gastrointestinal health and brain function.
What Happens on My First Visit?
On your first visit to Wake Forest Chiropractic, Dr. Phelan will obtain a thorough history and perform an in-depth examination. X-rays may or may not be necessary. At that point, patients are usually wondering 4 things; what is wrong, what can we do about it, could chiropractic care make things worse, and how long is this going to take to fix? Attached to the last question (how long is this going to take to fix?), is the question of cost. All of this is addressed on the first visit to the patient's satisfaction before entering into care. Our goal is to help your body heal quickly and naturally.
Can Cost be the Wrong First Question?
Occasionally I overhear a potential new patient call the office and their first question is, "How much will my first visit cost?" This is an appropriate question, however, those searching for the lowest out of pocket cost first visit, perhaps one that offers free x-rays and/or services, may overlook the qualifications of the provider they are contacting. Reaching their healthcare goals may be better served by researching the background, years in practice, reviews and perhaps experiences of other patients treated by a provider, before opting for the lowest cost option in the area.
Does Wake Forest Chiropractic accept Insurance Assignment?
Yes, we are in network for most insurance plans, a list of which is under the insurance tab on this website. We also file liability insurance claims for individuals involved in automobile accidents.
