I have never felt so cared for by a healthcare provider let alone human. The entire staff I met today (Melanie, Amanda, & Dr. McGillick) were above and beyond amazing. I have never been to a chiropractor before and this was a superior first experience. They’re so amazing I would invite them to Thanksgiving dinner. 10/10 5 stars can’t say enough great things.
