“Dr. Mike was very clear about what I needed help with, even though he wasn’t the doctor I thought I was seeing. I originally signed up for an appointment with Dr. Ben Gruen, DC, but I ended up meeting with Dr. Mike, which was totally fine, maybe next time that should’ve been communicated clearly.”

Everything from the start to finish was perfect. The minute I got there when I met the the receptionist who guided me through the paperwork with a smile. Next, I was introduced to the nurse practitioner where I was a part of a thorough examination by a practitioner that listened had, clear communication and a demeanor that had me feeling comfortable and glad I came. The N P then brought me to the acupuncturist who is just as nice ,thorough& filled with knowledge that was specific to my needs and then I met the chiropractor who was an expert at his craft. He was able to explain every part of the process while keeping me an active participant at all times .?It was my first appointment, but I feel that my life is gonna be a lot better being all their hands due to a plan of action tailored specific two
?my ?medical needs.

Great adjustment and muscle work - even provided a short massage before my adjustment which was a nice touch, highly recommend this practice.

I recently finished my treatment with Dr. Ben for chronic neck pain and headaches, and I am thrilled with the results. From the very first visit, he demonstrated a deep understanding of my condition and listened attentively to my concerns. His warm demeanor made me feel comfortable discussing my symptoms.
Dr. Ben’s treatment approach was comprehensive and tailored specifically to my needs. He explained each step clearly, which helped me feel engaged in my healing process. Through a combination of techniques,
I noticed a significant reduction in both my neck pain and headache frequency.
What stood out to me was Dr. Ben’s commitment to my recovery. He checked in regularly and adjusted the treatment plan based on my progress. His expertise and genuine care made a world of difference.
I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ben to anyone experiencing similar issues. His dedication to patient care is exceptional, and I am grateful for the relief he has provided.
October 31, 2024Julia F.Verified patient
This was quite possibly the most thorough doctors visit I have ever experienced. From the warmth of the entire staff, to the overall level of sincerity and communication, I truly felt CARED for. It was an absolute revelation to have multiple medical professionals in the room having a conversation WITH me instead of AT me. If every medical practice could emulate Move Well, the healthcare industry would be a much better place.
September 27, 2024Brie C.Verified patient
Dr. Gruen was very thorough and communicated incredibly well. That helped build trust immediately and made me more comfortable with a new provider than I may have been otherwise. I have already booked a second appointment with Dr Gruen and am excited to work through my chiropractic needs with his office and staff.
April 5, 2024Michael M.Verified patient
I made a same-day appointment on Zocdoc when I was in the city over Christmas break and experienced back pain. I really appreciated the office's willingness to fit me in. Dr. Ben was friendly and straightforward and gave me immediate relief, as well as a plan for moving forward once I was back home. The massage following my appointment also really helped me feel better. Thank you!

After a week of up at night pain for a backache, I went to CityMD and was told after a physical exam and X-ray that I needed to see an orthopedic surgeon (odd considering the radiology report I was given indicated muscular strain) and was sent on my way. Still in pain, I went made an appointment here for this evening. And wow! Night and day experience. Apparently they have a nurse practitioner, massage therapist, acupuncturist, and chiropractor on site so it’s literally a one stop shop. After reviewing my x-rays from earlier and giving me a physical exam, nurse Andrea George explained my options thoroughly, gave and an anti inflammatory shot and an prescription for a muscle relaxer. Chiropractor Ben Gruen was awesome. Explained everything he was doing and really took his time to work everything out. Now just waiting for it to all come together but already feeling much better! Highly recommended! Couldn’t be more thankful. Will be my first stop in the future.
September 20, 2022Nicole B.Verified patient
Office staff were great. Nurse Practitioner was very thorough and informative. She used chart to help me identify the areas of concern. Chiropractor was took her time to explain the exercises . I left the office feeling less pain after my adjustment. I would recommend the office to others.

Dr. Gruen took time to show me what he was seeing on the x-ray and explain my treatment plan. He was very communicative when he was analyzing how my legs and lower back move and used the perfect amount of delicate force to pop things into place.
