Complete Chiropractic Care Center
When I started my practice in 1993 I had one goal to build my practice. That plan was to spoil my patients so they would stick with me and that they would recommend me to their friends and family.
What Does This Kind of Care Look Like?
Kindness
The minute a patient walks through the office door they are greeted by name, with a smile, a kind word and offered a bottle of water.
Comprehensive and Complete
History and Exam
I personally perform a comprehensive exam on every patient. During the exam, I often hear that their previous doctor never did anything like it. Many patients tell me I’m the first doctor who’s even touched them.
Each patient is examined for range of motion, tenderness, spinal function, orthopedic findings, muscle spasm, strength and flexibility, swelling, and fascia mobility. If necessary, I order studies such as X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, or blood tests. Depending on the problem, other specialized examination procedures may also be needed. The point is, nothing is assumed in your care—I make sure what’s wrong is clearly understood.
I also take a complete, detailed history from every patient. When was the last time a doctor sat down with you, took the time to ask questions, and really listened to understand your problem?
Treatment
When you come to my office, you’re not going to find a parking lot full of cars. The minimum treatment time my patients receive is 15 minutes. I personally perform all the chiropractic treatment. At every visit, I review all of my patients’ problems to see how they’re doing. The treatment is literally customized each time to make sure it’s exactly what the patient needs on that visit.
Because office visits aren’t rushed, my patients and I have the time to figure out if any activities are contributing to their problem. Often, together, we discover key factors that help them get better faster—and stay better longer.
No funny stuff. I’m very selective about the treatments I adopt. While I remain open-minded when evaluating new therapies, I’m also skeptical. Bottom line: if, after evaluating a treatment, I wouldn’t personally pay for it, I don’t use it on my patients.
Over the years, I’ve mastered many treatments. Today, I mix and match to come up with the best approach for each individual. I don’t make my patients fit into my treatment—I make the treatment fit the patient.
When a person has musculoskeletal pain, there are usually three major structures involved: muscle, joint, and fascia. To varying degrees, these structures typically aren’t functioning properly and are contributing to the pain. Every patient, every visit, gets all three systems evaluated and treated. Most providers focus on just one. Generally, chiropractors focus on the joints, physical therapists focus on the muscles, and almost no one addresses the fascia.
Because of the comprehensive nature of the treatment, most of my patients get better quickly—and they often stay better longer.
Honest
My patients get the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. This means that I’m careful that patients know what they can expect from a test or treatment before we get started. There is nothing more important to me than my relationship with my patients. I love getting my patients answers to their health questions. If I don’t know or if I’m not sure about something I’m quick to make that clear to my patients. If it would be best for my patient to see a different doctor I’m happy to refer my patients. Bottom line is I want to treat my patients that way I would want to be treated if I was the patient.

Who Do We Treat?
One of the things I really enjoy is treating whole families. While Mom or Dad usually come in first, it’s not long before I have the privilege of helping the entire family. I’ve adjusted children as young as the day they were born, and I have patients well into their 90s.
One of my favorite groups to treat is pregnant patients. Pregnancy comes with unique needs, and chiropractic care is a great fit to support those changes. Plus, I think my pregnant patients are like superheroes! I mean, they’re literally creating a brand new person—how cool is that?
How Much Does This Kind of Care Cost?
Please contact the office to find out exactly what your out-of-pocket cost will be. We see patients with Medicare and those who pay out-of-pocket. Due to the high deductibles associated with most out-of-network insurance plans, we do not accept general insurance.
More and more of my patients don’t have insurance at all. I wrote about the reasons for that HERE. I work hard to honor the decision these patients have made in choosing me as their doctor.
