I always get relief for my various issues with Dr. Kowal. His approach to steady progress, through treatment combined with instruction on how to help myself is invaluable to someone suffering with painful conditions.

Dr. K is clearly the best chiropractor I have ever had. This is a person who walks the walk. I’ve had back problems for years and not only is he extremely knowledgable in what he does, he works holistically and educates me on why what is happening is happening and all I can proactively do on my own to responsibly address it. If you need a chiropractor, be grateful you’re reading this review.

I had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Richard that I feel is important to share. When I initially called his office, he answered the phone himself but seemed confused about why I was calling, even though I was inquiring about chiropractic services. He told me he would call me back, which he did but not until the following day. When he finally returned my call, his tone was noticeably unkind and impatient. He asked me what was wrong in a way that felt dismissive and unprofessional especially considering that health concerns are often personal and deserve a respectful and attentive conversation. Before I could fully explain my situation, he interrupted to ask where I was located. Upon hearing my location, he quickly told me I was too far, that he didn’t want to get involved, and suggested I look for someone else. This level of discourtesy and lack of professionalism is not something I’ve encountered before in healthcare. I found the interaction to be unnecessarily rude and dismissive. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Dr. Richard to others. I hope he takes this feedback as an opportunity to reflect on how he communicates with prospective patients, as kindness and professionalism are essential in any medical practice.
