“Dr smart was great in tacking my issue. I formative and providing a plan for my wellness and recovery. Products far best and highly recommend. ”

“Gabriela is amazing! Best way to describe her work ethic was "thorough!" She hustled and did the job of about 2 - 3 people. She explained each step of evaluation, and made sure you understood why. Additionally, she offered some ways to address the cause of pain as well as potential remedies (that didn't offer a miracle drug(s)). Her customer service and bedside manner were nothing short of spectacular! I trust her experience and knowledge in helping the patients reduce and perhaps eliminate causes of pain. Highly recommend this talented professional.”

February 9, 2024Danny G.Verified patient
All I can say is WOW, what a great experience! Dr. Smart took her time to carefully assess my range of motion. She showed a thorough knowledge of the muscular skeletal system through the various exercises she had me do. Not only did I receive an adjustment, I received a glorious 20 minute electrode/warm blanket/massage combo! All of this is part of her regular adjustment routine. She cares deeply about healing people. Bonus: she’s bilingual English/Spanish.
Check out this hidden gem of a chiropractor!
