Medical Disclaimer
Please read this disclaimer carefully before using the Next-Step Checker.
Educational Purpose Only
The OKC Disc & Sciatica Next-Step Checker (the "Tool") is an educational resource designed to help individuals organize their symptoms and understand potential next steps related to lower back pain, sciatica, and disc-related conditions. This Tool is NOT a medical diagnostic instrument, clinical assessment, or treatment recommendation system.
Not Medical Advice
The information provided by this Tool does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The results generated are based solely on self-reported answers to educational screening questions and should not be used as a substitute for professional medical judgment, diagnosis, or treatment from a licensed healthcare provider.
No Doctor-Patient Relationship
Use of this Tool does not create a doctor-patient relationship between you and Precision Care Chiropractic, Dr. Betty Bampoe, or any other healthcare provider. A doctor-patient relationship is only established through an in-person evaluation and mutual agreement to begin care.
Red-Flag Safety Routing
This Tool includes a safety screening component that identifies self-reported symptoms commonly associated with serious neurological conditions (such as cauda equina syndrome). If you report such symptoms, the Tool will immediately recommend that you seek urgent medical evaluation. This routing is a safety feature, not a diagnosis.
No Guarantees or Promises
This Tool does not promise, guarantee, or imply that any specific treatment — including chiropractic care, spinal decompression, or any other intervention — will cure, resolve, or improve your condition. Treatment outcomes vary by individual and depend on factors that cannot be assessed through an online screening tool.
Limitation of Liability
Precision Care Chiropractic, Dr. Betty Bampoe, and the developers of this Tool are not liable for any decisions made based on the results of this screening. Users are solely responsible for seeking appropriate medical care based on their individual circumstances.
Emergency Situations
If you are experiencing a medical emergency — including severe or rapidly worsening neurological symptoms, loss of bladder or bowel control, sudden leg weakness, or symptoms following a major trauma — call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department immediately. Do not rely on this Tool for emergency medical guidance.
Accuracy of Self-Reported Information
The accuracy of the results depends entirely on the accuracy of the information you provide. The Tool cannot verify, confirm, or validate your self-reported symptoms, medical history, or imaging findings.
By using this Tool, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to this disclaimer. If you do not agree, please do not use the Tool.
