Van Every Family Chiropractic Center is open from 9:00 AM to noon on two Saturdays a month, and the dates vary. Call or text the Royal Oak office at (248) 616-0900 to confirm the next available Saturday and arrange the visit. Saturday appointments and massages cannot be scheduled through the app.
Is Van Every open every Saturday?
No. The office opens on two Saturdays each month rather than every Saturday. Because the dates vary, confirm the current schedule before planning around a particular weekend. The office team can tell you which Saturday dates are available.
This variable schedule is why the website does not list Saturday as a weekly recurring day. Calling or texting gives you the current information instead of an assumption based on a general hours listing.
What are the Saturday hours?
Saturday hours are 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM on the two scheduled Saturdays each month. The date and appointment availability still need to be confirmed with the office.
If you are balancing work, school, sports, or a family schedule, tell the team what kind of appointment you need when you reach out. New patient visits follow a different sequence from continuing care, so it helps to be specific.
How do I arrange a Saturday appointment?
Call or text the office at (248) 616-0900. Ask which Saturday dates are open and whether the appointment type you need is available. Saturday appointments cannot be scheduled through the app.
If you are a new patient, say that when you contact the office. If you are already a patient, share the information the team needs to find your account and understand the reason for the visit without including private details in an unnecessary message.
Can I schedule a Saturday massage through the app?
No. Saturdays and massages cannot be scheduled through the app. Call or text the office so the team can explain current availability and the correct way to arrange the service.
Do not assume that a Saturday chiropractic opening also means a massage appointment is available. Confirm the service, date, and time directly with the team.
What happens at a first chiropractic visit?
New patients begin with a two-visit intake. Visit one includes a detailed history, an examination, and INSiGHT nervous-system scans. There is no adjustment on the first visit.
Visit two is the Report of Findings. The doctor explains the findings, answers questions, and presents an individualized care plan when appropriate. If you choose to continue, visit two includes the opportunity for the first adjustment. Read the full process on the new patient center page.
What should I do before a Saturday first visit?
Complete your new patient forms ahead of time when possible. Bring a photo ID and your insurance card if you plan to use insurance. Write down your main questions and the history you want the doctor to understand.
- Confirm the Saturday date and appointment time
- Confirm that the appointment type you need is available
- Complete new patient forms before arriving
- Bring identification and insurance information when applicable
- Plan enough time for the first-visit history, examination, and scans
Can children come to the Saturday visit?
Van Every is a family practice that sees babies, children, pregnant patients, adults, and seniors. The office includes a Jungle Room with toys, books, and a drawing board for children. Tell the team who is coming when you arrange the appointment so they can help you plan.
The first visit for a child is adapted to age and comfort. A parent remains part of the history and can share sensory, communication, or positioning preferences before the examination begins.
What kind of chiropractic care is used?
Our doctors use Koren Specific Technique and Talsky Tonal Chiropractic. The approaches use light, nervous-system focused contacts with no forceful cracking, popping, or twisting. KST is instrument-assisted, while TTC is a hands-on approach that evaluates the NeuroSpinal system as a connected whole.
The technique and position are selected from the individual's history, examination, and scan findings. Learn more about the practice's approach on the family wellness page.
Should I verify insurance before a Saturday first visit?
Van Every is in network with BCBS, BCN, and MESSA, but benefits vary by individual plan, and some BCN plans require a referral. Verify your benefits before the first visit and ask whether a referral or other plan requirement applies to you.
Bring your current insurance card if you plan to use insurance. The office can explain its in-network relationships and visit process, while your insurance provider confirms the benefits attached to your policy.
When should I arrive?
Follow the arrival time the team gives you when the appointment is confirmed. New patients who have not completed forms ahead of time need additional time for paperwork. Arriving prepared helps the limited Saturday morning schedule stay comfortable for your family and the people scheduled after you.
What should I confirm before ending the call or text?
Repeat the date, arrival time, appointment type, and anything you need to bring. If the visit is for a child or several family members, confirm who is scheduled. This short check prevents confusion because the office is not open every Saturday and different services have different scheduling steps.
How do I confirm the next Saturday?
Call or text us at (248) 616-0900 and ask for the next scheduled Saturday date. The office is in Royal Oak at 4203 Rochester Road. Confirm the date, time, and appointment type before making weekend plans.
When you are ready to start the new patient process, you can also book online. For a Saturday specifically, call or text because Saturday appointments are not available through the app.
