What can I say, but thank goodness for Dr. Vickers at Allied. When I first contacted him over 2 years ago, I was in debilitating pain and searching for relief. On a whim, I went to his office, he happened to have a slot open and then I was in his care. Different from other chiropractors and doctors that I have seen, Dr. V was caring, reading my medical history in its entirety, without judgment, and then suggested things "right now' that could give me relief. He adjusted me like I have never been adjusted. He took his time and kept working until he was satisfied with the result, and my pain subsided. I still see him for maintenance, because occasionally I have pain, but he always helps me.
Sara (up front) runs the office and makes apps, etc., she is incredibly kind and always helpful. I also want to mention Tony Powell, who is the most amazing certified massage therapist I have ever worked with. He is knowledgeable about anatomy and using certain methods and pressure where needed. Fortunately for me, he is not afraid to do deep tissue work, but also listens and cares for each person like they are the most important person in his life. And I have watched him do that on several occasions. I will continue to work with him forever. I also saw June, who teaches and assists with Pilates (I learned that the form I was using was not correct.) as the form that I was a using needed to be adjusted. I can now use my Pilates's machine without pain and Lizzie, the nutritionist....she is well educated and continues to improve her knowledge so that she can help patients like me. More than that, she is kind, loving and caring. After seeing what diet restrictions had been suggested to me and being totally confused, she helped me navigate the diet, and basically completely changed my diet, and the continued to.follow up with me for several months and now after a year of following some basic habits, I have lost 40 pounds, am clearer, have an occasional bought of rib and neck pain, and due to the change in diet, only occasionally have stomach (colitis flare ups) and immediately get in to see Dr, Josh, or Lizzie, or Tony..... and all of that together HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. IF YOU'RE IN PAIN, RUN DON'T WALK TO ALLIED AND YOU'LL BE AS THRILLED AS I AM WITH THE RESULTS.
