About Dr. Michael Tobet
Dr. Tobet attended undergraduate school at Stony Brook University in New York, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree in Biology in 1980. He received his Doctorate of Chiropractic degree in 1984 from the New York Chiropractic College. Upon graduation from chiropractic school, Dr. Tobet traveled oversees to work as a chiropractor in Israel, where he gained valuable experience as a chiropractor working with many people, including dignitaries and ballet dancers. Since his return from Israel, for the past 30 years, Dr. Tobet has been in private practice in Fairfield, Connecticut.
Dr. Tobet continued to further his education and he became board certified as a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (C.C.S.P.) in 1988. He has volunteered his services as a sports physician at such events as the Nutmeg Games, the Special Olympics, and the Fairfield Half Marathon. Dr. Tobet has also served as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Bridgeport Chiropractic College.
Dr. Tobet believes in a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare, which means that he believes that all healthcare providers should work together to find the best possible outcome for the patient. For example, if a referral to another specialty is necessary, Dr. Tobet will not hesitate to do so.
Sometimes surgery and medication is necessary, but the most fulfilling part of being a chiropractor, for Dr. Tobet, over the past 30 years is saving people from unnecessary surgery and medication. Disc herniations, for eg, are often a reason for surgery but Dr. Tobet has found only a few cases over the years that could not be helped through chiropractic care. Dr. Tobet has also helped patients who were told they needed surgery for stenosis.
The treatment that Dr. Tobet uses will vary from patient to patient, based upon a thorough understanding of the patient’s diagnosis. In addition to traditional and advanced chiropractic techniques, Dr. Tobet utilizes physiotherapy such as ultrasound when necessary.

Excellent As Always! DR Tobet is the best Chiropractor I have used over the past 50 years! Diagnosis is Always spot on. Highly Reccomend.

Dr. Tobet is an extremely intelligent, kind and caring practitioner. He listens carefully and respects the work of any previous surgeries. After X-rays, he crafted a comprehensive treatment plan and would switch up his techniques based on my body's response. I always thought the chiropractor was like the crack video I saw online but it's so different so much more than cracking. Dr. Tobet has been working with me for a few months now and I can see so much improvement! I'm glad I went to the chiropractor but even happier I chose someone who respects his field of work as much as Dr. Tobet does. I wouldn't trust anyone else to work on me.
