I am no stranger to chiropractic care. I have been going to chiropractors for 10 years (I am only 28) and Dr. Dingman is by far the best I have ever been to. He is not just a chiropractor, he is so much more. I have lower back pain, hip problems, and a collar bone problem. After seeing Dr. Dingman just one time I felt better than I had in years. 3 weeks later I felt like a whole new person. I can sit in my car without shooting pain down my legs, tailbone pain, and re-positioning over and over again just to stay somewhat comfortable. My collar bone doesnt hurt and my hip feels amazing. He has also helped my headaches. Dr. Dingman does work on your muscles and trigger points, not just your bones. He looks at you as an entire person not just a skeleton. On top of all of that, he has also consulted me on my vitamins. I had my daughter 7 months ago and felt exhausted, like many moms do, as well as my hair was falling out like crazy. Dr. Dingman got me on a vitamin regimen and I am starting to have more energy and Im actually getting to keep my hair now. The office staff is very nice and friendly. You walk in greeted by friends not just people trying to file you in the door to take your money. They are all very personable and will work with you to get you scheduled for a time that is best for you. I have never felt rushed at their office or like Dr. Dingman has to hurry to get to another patient. He gives you the time you deserve and need when you are in his office - very different from most doctors. Overall visiting Dr. Dingmans office is a wonderful experience. He is also very reasonably priced so you are not going to break the bank to get relief. I would suggest Dr. Dingman to everyone I know!

I DO NOT RECOMMEND! NO FREE CONSULTATION. I went there for a first appointment. I was scheduled for 2:00, got there at 1:45 to do the paperwork, and was told Dr. Dingham had a patient at 2:30 so I wouldn't be seen til at least 2:45. Weird...since my appointment was at 2:00 but whatever, I waited it out. I was taken back to the exam room, changed into q gown. When he came in he mumbled his name and shook my hand and as we discussed my back pain issues he was very short and unpleasant as he asked me questions. He had no friendliness, no personality whatsoever and I felt extremely uncomfortable. Without asking me, his receptionist Dawn who is apparently his wife, sat in on my appointment. Odd! Then he began to examine me, testing pressure points, reflexes. He told me I had functional back pain. Funny, because my back pain is so awful I can barely function! Then without offering me any actual treatment for that particular visit he asked me if I was going to commit to 8 to 10 visits for treatment or if I needed to think about it. I said I needed to think about it and I was instructed my Dawn to get dressed. When I came out to pay, she asked me if something was wrong and said she felt like there was a misunderstanding, that no one has ever had my reaction (which was confusion and silence) before. I told her I was a little confused because he didn't do anything and she informed me prior to putting my clothes on he was getting ready to treat me. Funny, since she's the one that told me to get dressed. And I'm still confused to what I paid 50 bucks for since their website advertises free consultation.

My husband started going to Dr. Dingman close to two years ago. He works in a factory and is on his feet (concrete floors) for eight hours a day. He had terrible pain in his lower legs. After treatment with the Dr. his legs do not bother him. After seeing the results of good chiropractic care, we started taking our son to see him. Our son has autism and is not always able to communicate to us his discomfort. He is ALWAYS relaxed and easy going after a visit, and will even request it. For myself, I am a school bus driver. It is a sedentary job, interspersed with muscle straining activities. I cannot begin to describe the relief I get from the care I receive. And it is just that--care. From the moment you walk in the door, you are being cared for. I find that regular visits are better for me, as opposed to waiting until something hurts. We are all very thankful to have Dr. Dingman in our lives. Editing 2/24/2014 Recently Dr. Dingman has started treating me and my son with homeopathic remedies. I have sinus issues and as I mentioned above, our son has autism. The increase in quality of life for our family is amazing. I am sleeping better because I can breathe, and our son is making little connections that just were not happening before. He is able to handle changes in his routine better. Little connections add up to big things, we look forward to seeing increased improvement in his overall ability to connect with the world around him.

I am an active duty soldier who had a baby earlier this year so my body was in all kinds of pain. I have been trying to find a place that would take me and I came across Dr. Dingmans office. I called early in the morning and told them what was going on and they set me up an apt for that day. When I arrived for my apt the receptionist was very polite when greeting me and telling me about their services and explaining the paperwork. I went back to the exam room Dr. Dingman came in introduced himself and asked what was going on with me. We sat and had a very nice conversation very informational about what was going on with myself and why my insurance doesnt cover chiropractic care. He is also a nutrionist and I told him I had concerns about continuously loosing weight due to breast feeding. He gave me information that my own actual Dr. cant. I was highly impressed. Anyways after the exam he took me to another room where he proceeded to work on my back. Let me tell you he knows what he is doing. I walked in there in all kinds of pain and walked out feeling like a brand new person! I slept so good that night because I was so relaxed. I went to work the following day and told everyone that I knew about this place. I even posted a picture of their business card on facebook and gave a great review. I highly recommend this place great service friendly staff and great information. I will definitely be going back !

I started going to Dr. Dingman about 15 years ago when I suffered from migraine headaches. Within a month I was amazed that I wasnt getting headaches any more. I continued for many years with a monthly adjustment and never had another migraine. Eighteen months ago I was diagnosed with lung cancer. Almost immediately Dr. Dingman started me on whole food supplements and a homeopathic remedy to prepare my immune system and my body for the chemotherapy that I would begin. But before the chemo began I went to Boston for a second opinion at Dana Farber Cancer Institute where they told me I probably had anywhere from a few months to two year life expectancy. All during my chemo treatment the oncology nurses and the doctor were impressed with my bloodwork and how well I was tolerating chemo. I never got sick to my stomach and only had slight nausea and fatigue after each of my six rounds of chemo. I credit Dr. D with keeping me healthy during and after the chemo. To me the food supplements and his attention to the needs of my body have been key to my fighting this cancer that was supposed to kill me. I thank him for that!!
