“Dr.B is hands down the MOST amazing Dr on this planet!
I was born with scoliosis, spina-bifida and my right sciatic nerve is constantly getting pinched.
I’ve gone to a bunch of Drs and all they say is “that this pill.” “take that pill.”
Then finally In 2006 Dr.Hadly directed me to Dr.B.
Since I meet him I haven’t taken another pain killer for my crazy back issues.
NO other Chyro or Dr compares to this man.
He is VERY down to earth, good person and very patient (I had to take my 2 year old that had a ultimate break down today lol).
The number on his webpage is HIS cell and he does respond very quick, AND now he makes house calls too! Great for those emergency nerve pinches I sometime have :/
If you have any back, neck and body pain in general get a appointment with Dr.B and stop taking those unnecessary pain killers!”
