Great experience. Very knowledgeable and kind. He really cares about his patients and spends the time to get to know you. It's incredibly helpful and I felt so much better after being treated by him. His bedside manner and attention to his patient's comfort is unparalleled. He provides a heat lamp so you don't get cold while the needles do their work. He also gives you a buzzer so if you need something you can get his attention. I've never had such a relaxing, comforting experience before. He's also very easy to relate to and talk to about the issues and problems that need treatment.

Dr Abels took time to fully understand what my issue was and the correct approach to treat it. He explained exactly what was going to happen and then did an excellent job with the treatment. I will definitely be going back and highly recommend to others.

I highly recommend Dan! He has great knowledge, a comforting 'bedside' manner but a no-nonsense approach to treatment. I experience immediate relief from severe chronic pain and have continued to benefit from his expertise.
