Chiropractors - any recommendations?
 

Does anyone know a good - soft touch - Chiropractor? I threw my back out a couple of days ago and not getting better on my own. I have ostiopenia (borderline ostioporosis), so I don't want further damage.

Re: Chiropractors - any recommendations?
 

twinkle...I go to Dr. T Stephen Hines of Chiropractic Center in Baylee Plaza...north of the Villages on 441 (after Stonecrest and Spruce Creek). # is 352-347-4422

I just go for monthly tune ups. But, he is hands on, gentle, very knowledgeable, very thorough, and genuinely wants to take the time to help his patients. He doesn't just crack you and send you out the door. He and his staff also do physical therapy.

I would highly recommend him. He was recommended to me by a neighbor who was a chiro in a prior life.

Good luck.

Re: Chiropractors - any recommendations?
 

Both my wife and I use Michael J. Paulk D.C. in the Ethridge Chiropractic, 910 Old Camp Rd., Suite 110, TV. 352-750-1200. Fine, caring, young man. We would recommend him to anyone. (Located right next to the new Sweetbay) :#1:

I would recommend Charlie's brother Alan, on Two and Half men, if he's not boinking Kandy..

chiropractors
 

Before you make any decisions about who to go to...Read who to stay away from first. I think you will save yourself a lot of money and headaches.

Charge
 

What does he charge?

aj

I go to Bob Marinier who is located in the off 466 where the Publix store is. He is next to the New York Deli in a tiny office. He is there from 8:30 to 12:30 every day and you do not need an appointment. He charges $20 and does not take insurance. He is very good - just list everything that you want adjusted on the envelope that you put your money and name on.

AJ .... that's not as easy a question as it might seem. Best bet is to call his office and find out.

I have some coverage via my insurance .... he bills $120 for my visit, insurance allows 47 which he accepts; So, would he charge someone, cash off the street, more or less than 47.... I don't know.

Total treatment time is about 45 mins.... massage/heat, stretch, and crack.

Charge
 

And what does he charge?

Thanks,

aj

RE: Davis...have heard he's expensive AND expects payment up front as he "prescribes" a "plan" for you! You should go into the archives re: chiropractors here and there are 'some' who will tell you this guy isn't the one to check out!!! I'm just saying......

I have heard a lot of bad things about Dr. Davis. First of all he charges too much, I guess that is why he can afford a big new building now. My husband went to him and he did not do anything for his back and when he wanted to stop going the doctor got upset with him. I know from other people that had to pay upfront for weeks ahead and no getting better after thousands of $.

Re: Dr Davis, Chiropratic
 

Went to him for over three months. Paid upfront, lots of $$$, if I may add. I did see some improvement, however, I was not at all totally pain free. During my final visit he informed me that I would have to pay even more $$$ for maintenance. I questioned that since I needed even more treatments to relieve my pain. All payments were up front and I received next to nothing from my insurance carriers and Medicare. The staff is very friendly and free coffee is available but for what I paid I could buy several shares in Dunkin Donuts! Dr. Davis DOES NOT DISCUSS payments or $$$. He leaves this to his assistants. I would not recommend him......Oh, as you enter his facility you see a portrait of his family and an inscription on the wall....about his patients...."really makes you feel at home....yea!

Dr Davis
 

He's money hungry and has a big EGO - my husband and I allowed ourselves to fall into his trap.

He billed Medicare and our Supplement Insurance and got paid but kept trying to get more from them. I told his office if it did not stop I would call Medicare and file a complaint. Guess what? It stopped.

Dr. Boyle's at Southern Trace Chiropractic...2nd floor of the Lange Eye Bldg. on 466

Dr. Stephen Boyles recommended
 

My husband is a retired Chiropractor and goes to Dr. Boyles, no nonsense, if he can not fix you in 3 treatments, you would have gone to the wrong office....I'm just a little prejudice but unfortunately my husband is now a full-time golfer, but he was the BEST!!!!

This is true!!!

Dr. Boyles actually hurt me more than I was hurting when I first went to him, had to seek treatment elsewhere.

Chiropractor
 

Has anyone been to Dr. Klein who is in with Dr. Hines in Baylee Plaza? After all of this bending and lifting I need an adjustment.
