After my experience, I felt an obligation to anyone whos thinking about trying this place. There are some things you should know: 1. While at first, they were friendly and sounded very (overly) confident, after a few visits, and after I declined signing a contract of treatment with them, they were a lot less thorough and caring, suddenly. Hmm, gotta wonder? I had a very hard time getting any answers from them. Never trust a "doctor" who is afraid of questions. Especially, never trust a care provider who tries to convince you that you have more issues than the ones you came in to address. 2. Chiropractor doesnt tell you what hes doing during "adjustments." Just claimed that if I continued to come for frequent treatments for 6+ months, they could "fix" me (straighten my spine.) 3. I didnt feel safe under the "care" of these guys. I was actually INJURED by the main guy there. He said one of my legs was longer than the other, so in an attempt to "adjust" my leg, he actually pulled my foot away from my ankle, stretching and injuring the ligaments in my ankle. Another time my neck hurt like a nerve was being pinched after he adjusted it. Got it fixed by the other guy the next visit and then NEVER returned. 4. They dont like too many questions here. I had to demand answers, and even then, I only got minimal responses. When I confronted them about my ankle injury, they didnt even comment. Just "oh." and one guy even offered "if the pain doesnt go away, we could see about adjusting some of the bones in the foot." Uhhhh, NO THANK YOU! 5. You can receive "copies" of your x-rays on a disc. However, they will be very blurry, low quality images, as they only do film x-rays. Just FYI- because it will be useless to send them elsewhere (such as your regular doctor or specialist) because the digital version is unusable and the film version is bulky (and cant be digitalized without losing significant resolution!) In conclusion, dont go there. I dont hate all chiropractors. I recognize that some are great, and depending on your situation, it can help you. But when they think they know better than doctors, and are quick to "diagnose" and offer expensive [CONTRACTUAL] treatment, youd better watch out. Thats a big red flag. PLEASE do some research about the limitations of chiropractic. They MUST be able to realize their own limitations and when they should refer you to a qualified doc. Not everything is caused by "misalignment" and not all can be treated through "adjustment." In fact, some health conditions can be made worse. See your local PCP for advice, and if necessary get referred to an medical specialist who knows their stuff. Ideally, get more than one opinion by qualified doctors, and DO NOT trust a doctor who balks at questions. They should be more than willing to discuss the details of your treatment with you.

They said they took my insurance until I got there and the gal who was supposed do do my massage "didnt take my insurance" but of course.... I could still be seen for the non insurance price...... Now answer me this.... When I called to make the appointment and they asked if I would be using insurance..... Dont you think a good follow up question would be "what kind?". And then they would pair you with the therapist that takes your insurance?????? Seems logical to me..... I waited 2 days to be seen so that way I could bill my insurance. And then.... When I get there.... They dont take my insurance????? Who does that???? Who wastes someones time like that???? Me...pinched nerve... Need help.... And they pull that bait and switch on me?!?!?!?! If I knew I was gonna have to pay full price why didnt I just call around to get the first available???? I WOULD HAVE!!!!! But they insinuated that they took my insurance and made me wait two days to be seen!!!! Im beyond livid

My visit reminded me of the time I took my new car to have its third oil change at one of those oil change chains, where they try to sell you things you dont need. Like that time, I left, after declining a bunch of up-sells and add-ons. I went to these guys because I strained a muscle in my neck. They had three people look at me, then tried to tell me I have one leg longer than the other, along with all sorts of other things wrong with me. No! I yawned while tying my shoe, and the strange angle caused me to have a stiff neck. I didnt want to agree to a bunch of x-rays and as a result, they didnt want to help me. I showed up with a crook in my neck and ended up with a crook trying to get in my wallet! Went home, used an old bottle of muscle relaxers I had from several years ago, and Im fine. I absolutely dont recommend these guys. They talk fast and try to pressure you into things you dont need. Never again.

I was in more pain after seeing him. He wanted me commit to a treatment plan costing $2500 and when I came in one day for my adjustment there was a totally different doctor there and he was asking me what my appointment was for that day, what my treatment plan was, he had no idea and neither did I. That was my last appointment there. Since then I have heard horrible things word of mouth about this office.

I went through several emergency room visits, an ambulance ride, saw an internal medicine doctor, never got a proper diagnosis for my symptoms. I went to Action Chiropractic, got xrays, got examined, got a diagnosis, and am feeling better than I have felt in over two years. Im also staying out of the hospital and saving thousands.

I have been coming here for for a while now and I have never felt more welcome. It took a few visits and some pain but once my body started to accept the correcting procedures i have been feeling a whole lot better. I would recommend this office in the future without a doubt.
