Testimonial
I am a retired spine physician with 30 years of clinical care experience. My practice had a strong academic foundation and I became well published in both clinical and basic science spine research. I was a consummate teacher on the local, national and international stage largely through various university and medical society appointments. I was a strong advocate and expert advisor for patient access to safe, compassionate, effective and ethical care at both the state and national level. I served as a consultant to multiple national and regional insurance carriers and helped produce both treatment and coverage guidelines through these efforts. I participated in the genesis of novel treatment methods and devices and helped with the validation of such. With the above, I have received multiple research and clinical awards from several medical societies for my accomplishments. I state the above to establish that I have a basis for being a very informed and critical consumer of spine related health care.
I carefully scrutinize potential providers to trust with my own body. I searched for a chiropractor that I felt comfortable could treat me effectively, safely and was a good human at the minimum. I cross referenced multiple medical sources looking for a recommendation. It took me years to find that provider (Dr. J). He was helped me through so many issues in ways that traditional medicine failed and he has done so with finesse and expediency.
My ultimate wish list for a provider includes authenticity, intelligence, experience, ethical behavior, compassionate, informed, rationale, skillful, humble, safe, a team player, evidence based and driven by best patient care not financial gain. It is near impossible to find a health care provider with even a majority of these traits. I am blessed to not only have found a chiropractor that possesses all the attributes in my provider wish list, but I have gained a wonderful new friend in the process. I continue to be impressed by Dr. J's clinical acumen and skill sets. I remain indebted to this wonderful chiropractor and man.
