November 28, 2017Samantha Z.Verified patient
This didn't feel like a positive, clean or welcoming environment for a medical office. The doctor was nice, but I never really felt like they took care of the space or me in a way that made me confident or comfortable with being there. If the presentation and aesthetics don't matter to you, I wonder what else you may not care about in your practice.

November 8, 2016Eddy L.Verified patient
Dr. Kessler and his staff (Front Desk lady especially) are super friendly, courteous and professional. Dr. Kessler was thorough, answered all of my questions and addressed all my concerns and even gave me advice on how to make gradual adjustments in my home life.
Highly recommended
September 3, 2016John R.Verified patient
He was very personable, able to talk about what was wrong with me in a digestible, nonscientific way, and after doing several tests, was able to adjust me with one movement that improved my pain by 75% almost instantly.
August 12, 2016Jordan M.Verified patient
I chose this doctor based on other people reviews! I feel opposite about what others are saying! First this place is hard to find and felt like I was going through a maze to find it! I found it and asked for an arm and a leg for a deductible. Then the doctor had nerve to insult my intelligence asking me do I know what a deductible is!! The receptionist seemed to not know what she was talking. Anyways I will never go and/or refer someone here.
July 1, 2016Fabiola M.Verified patient
Dr. Kessler was thorough and explained everything that was happening to cause the pain and everything about the treatment that would relieve it.

awesome as always. love my doctor
July 27, 2015Victoria C.Verified patient
He spent 50% of the appointment defending chiropractors as a legitimate profession (even though I never once questioned it) and then the other 50% questioning why I'm athletic instead of suggesting ways to get better so that I can continue to be athletic. There was an awkward and painful alignment in there somewhere.

Great doc that tells it like it is and has been very helpful with my over all improvement. Would recommend to a family member or friend!

He is very knowledgable of his job. My visit was worthwhile. I didn't feel like my time was wasted and that he was very insightful with the formation he provided to me regarding my problem and other possibilities. He also had me do a treatment on my first visit. I felt comfortable and relaxed.
March 26, 2015Voniesha L.Verified patient
Dr. Kessler was very attentive to my issues. I was seen right way. I was given a very clear explanation on the pain issue I was having and treated for. Finally I felt much better leaving the office as I had when coming in.
February 13, 2015Brendan C.Verified patient
Dr. Kessler was attentive and kind, which was especially appreciated since this was my first ever visit with a chiropractor. His assessment was thorough, and he explained things step by step and very clearly.
