A WORD FROM OUR CLINIC DIRECTOR AND our LOYAL PATIENTS
My number one priority is to restore your health. My goal is to help as many patients as possible achieve a better quality of life. That’s why I became a chiropractor, and that’s why we have such a wonderful, compassionate staff. We are genuinely concerned with your well-being as a patient, and we’ve seen many patients enjoy pain relief when other methods didn’t work. The care you’ll receive in my office is high-quality and affordable… let us show you how much better you can feel TODAY!
“I was Dr. Rafey’s patient for nearly 2 1/2 months (after an auto accident). I had sustained a painful foot injury, a jammed hip, and a jammed shoulder, a slight neck injury and was completely out of alignment. I was literally walking with a lopsided uneven gait. Had I remained under the exclusive treatment of my ortho, I’m very sure that I would not have been healed. I’m extremely grateful that they accepted me as a patient when everyone else had a month-long waiting list. I was treated with so much care and respect, I never felt like a patient, but rather a friend. I loved going there, and especially appreciated the wonderful staff who truly know how to put into practice the phrase, “Courtesy with a smile.” I miss you ladies. Big hug.”
“Dr. Rafey and his staff are professional, warm, honest and kind. Dr. Rafey was able to correctly diagnose and treat a back injury that previous chiropractors missed. Because of that, I’m now able to walk, sit and exercise without pain for the first time in nearly a year! I highly recommend them for your chiropractic needs!”
