After two years of living with neck pain and not having any treatment I finally decided that I would go to this chiropractic clinic to see if they could do anything to help me. So as soon as I get there I gave them my insurance and filled out their paperwork, as I was filling out my paperwork one of the chiropractors in the office asked very crudely how old I was because I was on my parents insurance plan due to being a college student (I cant explain it to describe to you that exact feeling that I felt, as if she were talking down to me). Then during my consultation with Dr. Drake it continued, very rude/dry manner - I told him that I was diagnosed with Cervical Disc Disease (which generally does not happen to people of my age and the neurosurgeon that diagnosed it also said that) and I wanted to try to relieve some of that pain without pain meds, etc. -Dr. Drake continued to tell me that he doesnt believe that is my issue and then asked if I had lower back pain (completely unrelated) and I said not anymore than a normal person has from daily activities it doesnt bother me, so for the next 75 percent of the consultation he focused on my "low back pain" which wasnt what I was seeking treatment for. X-rays and all. Still to this day I have not returned not. Like they say, "you wont remember what a person did or what a person said, but you will remember how they made you feel." So in conclusion, I am not saying They are bad chiropractors quite frankly because I dont know, but what I am saying is that if I am paying 200 dollars for one visit I expect good customer service, I expect you to listen to what Im telling you and not belittle me, and I expect my age and the fact that my parents help with my medical insurance (but not my 120000 dollars in student loans) to not be an issue.

I initially hobbled into to the Fairfield chiropractic office looking for someone to alleviate my back pain. The initial treatments showed promise that i hadn’t had before. And here i am years later, grateful and indebted to two doctors that took the time to understand my needs, flexible enough to continue tweaking their treatment plans, secure enough to devise a personal maintenance plan with a goal of no longer needing treatments and caring enough to get to know me as a person. Dr. Richards utilizes the activator method which i have found to be a more precise solution to my adjustment needs. Dr. Drake practices more traditional chiropractic care as well as physical therapy. I have had the pleasure of working with both doctors and have bounced back and forth depending on what’s ailing me. Most importantly, they helped to devise a maintenance routine that allows me to lead the active lifestyle that i choose to live. I started out looking for a doctor to reduce my back pain and ended up with two life long friends. Thank you Dr. Richards and Dr. Drake!

Dr. Drake and Dr. Richards are a great team. I was in a bad place physically; headaches going on 2-3 years that would last a week or more, shoulder-upper-mid-lower back pain, and pain in my ribs that was making it hard to breathe. Dr. Drake was able to relieve my rib pain so I left breathing much better. Dr. Richards fine tuned the rest of my issues, helping to reduce the area pain was effecting my body. I have been seeing them for going on 6 months and my headaches are no longer running my life. My back pain is getting much better as well. I have to end this with a note that I had tried many other treatments prior to my visits with these two wonderful people including; botox, physical therapy, breast reduction surgery, yoga, Pilates, etc. And nothing was able to relieve the headaches until coming to Fairfield Chiropractic. They are a team with all the problem solving skills beyond what I have seen in the many specialist I have visited over the last 11-15 years for my issues. I highly recommend them to anyone.

Fairfield Chiropractics doctors and staff are great. I have seen both Dr. Richards and Dr. Drake over the years. Dr. Richards helps keep me healthy and feeling well. She uses the activator method for adjusting patients, and it is the most gentle, comfortable, and effective method I have ever experienced. I totally recommend it. Dr. Drake specializes in rehabilitation and he helped me rehab my broken ankle and wrist. He was excellent at explaining and guiding me through my rehab exercises, and as a result I recovered my strength and full functioning of my broken ankle and wrist. Dr. Drake also performed acupuncture on me for pain and stress. Great experience. The office is very accessible, the staff is friendly and helpful, and I always get in to see the doctor in a reasonable amount of time after calling the office or the answering service. I completely recommend Fairfield Chiropractic.

Ive been a patient of Dr. Drake and Dr. Richards since 1996 after a car accident left me unable to turn my head to the right. They have treated my entire family since then. They have seen us at our worst and been instrumental in helping our entire family regain our health on many levels. Weve used all of their services from rehab, adjustments with the activator system to acupuncture. They are both extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. What I love about them most is that they dont treat us like cookie cutter patients. They give each of us individualized treatment and care. Always taking a whole body and mind approach to our wellness. Thank you Dr. Drake and Dr. Richards! Our family wouldnt be where we are today without your expertise and kindness!

After many years of back issues between sports and the military I finally pushed it over the edge with a snowboarding injury coupled with weight lifting. The pain was enough to keep me grounded and prevented me from so much as sleeping, let alone enjoying life. I went to Dr Drake off of a suggestion from a friend and I could not be happier. Since I started going there my back issues have been greatly reduced, and issues that I have been dealing with for years have become nearly unnoticeable. I have recommended him to all of my friends with back issues because of the outstanding service, and excellent results. Easily a 5 star rating without a question!

Have been visiting Fairfield Chiropractic for many years and for great reason! Great staff thats very personal and positive and not your typical doctors office. Dr Richards and Dr Drake offer several types of treatments to fit your style and needs. Very attentive to their patients. After every visit, I am asked if there is anything I feel like was missed or I would like checked for my comfort. Not only do I feel like they truly care for my physical health, but also me personally. You are not just "another patient".

After having severe migraines and years of sleepless nights a friend told me that a Chiropractor could help with my situation. So made an appointment at Fairfield Chiropractic and I could not of been happier with the whole experience! Dr. Drake is great at what he does and the staff is very nice and informative. Just after a few visits my migraines have went away and I can finally get a good nights sleep. I highly recommend Fairfield Chiropractic for any issues you have!
