I've been here twice so far and it's been great. I did wait a long time to be seen the first time but I was a walk-in and most everybody had appointments. The X-rays I had taken were really quick. The Chiropractor explains everything really good and the staff is very nice.

Suzy Choi, PA-C ...YOU ARE A BLESSING!! I want to start off by thanking you for being so kind and listening to my symptoms. I was so scared but you talked with me and reassured me of my treatment plan. You related with me and understood me, making me feel so much better. I appreciate you for all that you do. You told me you were the only provider working and you were so backed up with patients. I noticed you took the time that each one needed. I was waiting for awhile, but due to covid-19 it is understandable. It wasn't that bad and to have a wonderful provider like yourself meant the world. You are appreciated and so is all your nurses and staff. Thank you again!!❤❤
