I went to the Chiropractic Place looking for an X-ray and hopefully an adjustment to fix a trapped nerve. The father son team was so friendly. They found me a time the same day and were wonderful. At the XRay, they saw something scary and immediately told me I had to go the ER for an emergency MRI. They gave me a brace and Riley drove me in person and stayed with me at the ER. He even came back later to check on me. It turns out they were right. I am told I cancer in my spine. They are still checking on me two days later when I'm still awaiting a huge surgery. They refused money for their lifesaving kindness, X-rays and brace. I didn't end up getting an adjustment. But they may have saved my life. This cancer is pretty advanced but thanks to Brian and Riley, I still have a chance. I am so profoundly grateful for their kindness. Thank you. And the receptionist was also very kind!Posted on Ray BusmannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Not all chiropractors are created equal... I have trusted the integrative approach of Dr. Miller and his team at the Chiropractic Place for ten years now, and I go back every month for "maintenance." Dr. Miller is an expert in listening to the body's subtle messages and adjusting even minute imbalances to prevent larger problems to occur in the future. I highly recommend this place of holistic health and healing!
