I always felt rushed by the doctor,, and he didn’t listen to me when I kept telling him I was in more pain from before I came there. Each visit I felt like he was trying to send me for testing and other doctors but he was not listening to my actual concerns. Everything felt like a bandaid for the pain but not finding the root cause of it.

This Chiropractor is PHENOMENAL. Dr Semente is only driven by his genuine commitment to his patients health and well-being. I feel so comfortable and supported under his care. He and his staff are thee most hard working, empathetic, dedicated group of medical professionals and technicians that I’ve personally come across. My fiancé is now also a patient at Dr. Semente’s office and shares the same sentiments.

I would absolute recommend Dr. Semente as I have been seeing him now for a few years and have sent all of my family to him as well. He and his staff are always a pleasure to work with and have had years of back pain witch now is completely gone. Cant say enough good things. I Highly recommend his office.
