Dr. Tieszen and his team have done a great job with healing my chronic lower back issue that I've been dealing with for many, many years. Now, my visits to the chiropractor are for general care, instead of emergency treatments. Thanks Team Tieszen! And as for Min Lee, how does an unfortunate sports injury reflect on how well Dr. Tieszen's performs his job? Highly inappropriate for you to use this avenue to express your frustration.

They care about you and your needs! They made my back feel so much better! I have been going for just a short time but I try and go every week. I feel so much better when I leave and I feel that way for about a week.

Report
My husband was seriously injured while playing soccer against Team "Tieszen". A Tieszen kicked my husband knee hard enough to break ACL + meniscus. I am mad not just because of injury itself. I am mad because team Tieszen were too busy playing the game to recognize the accident or show an apology to this injured player on the ground. Where is the sportsmanship? One of a player in Team Tieszen and who is also employed by tieszen chiropractic was giving me an lecture about being an adult and emphasized all of her team players are GOOD.
A sports player failed to show the basic human decency CAN NOT BE good. it is hard to believe she will provide "CARE" to patients coming into the clinic. It is shame Dr. Tieszen sponsors a team rather ruin his reputation.
