I first went to see Dr. Mackler a couple of years ago when my lower back was hurting me a lot. I think it was about an 8/10 on the pain scale. I had done physical therapy in the past, and it worked, but it was also time consuming and I dont have that kind of time these days. So I went to my very first visit with a chiropractor. Dr. Mackler took the time to explain my condition to me, and how chiropractic care could help. He is a man of science, so he had me take x-rays to make sure there wasnt something else going on that may need attention. Also, it helped to show him where he would need to concentrate his work. The first visit is necessarily longer because of the intake he does on you, then the education. After that, visits have always been about 20 minutes for me. Im sure it varies per person, but my impression is that for most people this is not a long drawn out affair. My PT sessions used to take at least an hour. Dr. Mackler helped me resolve my back issues, so I now I am free of chronic pain. My job is somewhat physical and it can be hard on my back so I continue to go regularly to see him so that I can avoid that back pain in the future. I dont mind going at all, because I always feel better afterwards, and Dr. Mackler is a lot of fun to be with. He is funny and caring and has some good stories, too. In a word, Dr. Mackler is the BEST!!!!!!

Who wouldve thought that at the tender age of 24 y.o., Id need to see a chiropractor. Ive suffered from chronic back pain for over 4 years now. Finally after nagging from my Mom & Partner, I decided that it was time. I originally got referred to a chiropractor by way of my health care provider. When I called his office I learned that hed soon be retiring. I was given Dr. Macklers information from the receptionist of the doctor who was retiring. I called him immediately to schedule an appointment after reading the amazing reviews and he was ready to take me that very day. Unfortunately, I wasnt. Nevertheless, we agreed on a date and Im so very glad to call him MY Chiropractor. He is thorough in his explanation, very skilled in the practice and extremely professional. Hes courteous and understanding, which I appreciate most. All in all, hes got the magic touch! If youre looking for a new chiropractor or one to replace your current, Dr. Mackler is man just perfect for the job!

Ive been Dr. Macklers patient for years, to treat ongoing pain on my neck and upper back caused by minor scoliosis, bad posture and a desk job with poor ergonomic settings. My condition has slowly improved, and I just feel great and loose after each session. He has given me ergonomic recommendations and effective stretches to do on my own for relief. He has also helped me with short-term issues, like lower back pain and knee cramps (the latter almost magically fixed not by chiropractic treatment, but his prescription of vitamin and minerals). Even though I dont work full time in DC anymore, I still manage to make appointments with him, rather than look for a chiropractor closer to my work location.

I recently started seeing Dr. Mackler for neck and lower back issues. I have been feeling sore and stiff for years and finally figured I would try chiropractic therapy. Dr. Mackler was extraordinarily thorough with history and pre treatment review. This has helped immeasurably as it help inform a treatment plan. Thus far I have had significant relief and actually feel like I can move properly again. I still have a ways to go but as of now I would gladly recommend Dr. Mackler without question.

I have been a patient of Dr. Mackler since 2009 and highly recommend him. He is always pleasant and professional and accommodates any requests that I make regarding appointment changes. Due to my frequent travel, I often have an urgent need for an adjustment and Dr. Mackler always manages to fit me into his schedule. I routinely see him every four weeks and he is always attentive and responsive to my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Mackler is absolutely fantastic. He has a lot of knowledge and experience in the chiropractic field. He cares about his patients, and he is friendly and very personable. I was experiencing lower back pain, and he adjusted my back over the course of several treatment sessions until the pain was gone. Treatment takes time and several visits, but this is necessary to correct back problems. So, make sure you go in with this expectation.

I switched to Dr. Mackler after my previous chiropractor left town, and I couldnt be happier. He was able to identify my "problem" spots right away and provide relief, in addition to giving me easy-to-do exercises to help minimize re-occurrences. His holistic approach to help with my lower-back issues has made a huge difference. Im really happy with the care I receive and can definitely recommend him.

Dr. Mackler is great! In addition to commuting to/from D.C. everyday, I also travel a lot and my body has taken a toll. Dr. Mackler sat down with me on my first appointment and we walked through what I was hoping to get out of therapy. It has been a month and I already feel so much better. I am even sleeping better. I cant wait to see the progress in another month. Worth the call...

Ive been a patient of Dr. Macklers for over five years and hes really helped keep my chronic back and neck pain at bay. I appreciated that, at the first visit, he thoroughly examined my situation to see if his care was appropriate for my case. (It was and and it helps!) Hes also routinely able to fit me in when my back flares up. I highly recommend him.

I have had a great experience with Dr Mackler. I saw him when I had severe neck pain and he got me completely out of pain in just four visits. He also worked with me to develop a plan of exercises so I can maintain alignment and continue to be pain free. In addition, I really appreciate how responsive and caring he is! Great experience!

Excellent in every way. Listens carefully, explains fully, dependable, flexible, generous, smart, articulate, and caring. I trust him as doctor and like him as a person. Ive been seeing him for a long time, and he has helped me so much; my quality of life is better because of his care and attention.

I first visited Dr. Mackler after experiencing numbness in my foot - he fixed the problem in one visit. I now go for monthly adjustments to help with neck strain from sitting at a computer all day. Great customer service, flexible appointment schedule, really knows his stuff!

I was referred to Dr. Mackler by my wife and I found him to be very professional, knowledgeable and thorough in the way he explained about your injury, and the approach to treating it. Be is also very friendly and has good bedside manner. I would recommend him to anyone I know.

Fantastic chiropractor! Fixed my neck problems quickly when I was in a lot of pain, and he doesnt try to sell you extra unnecessary treatment. Dr. Mackler is very friendly and makes it easy to find appointment times that work, even if you have a busy schedule.
