First off, a disclosure: as far as chiropractic experience, I do not have anything negative to say. I do think that his treatments can be helpful and beneficial for certain things. That being said, I am giving a 1-star review because of Dr. Kordonowy's insistence on spreading politically-motivated and misleading COVID information to his patients. For those that don't know, chiropractors are "non-medical" doctors and are not qualified to do things such as prescribe medicine, treat flu-like viruses, perform surgical procedures, etc.
I am very concerned that his personal opinions on COVID and his "Doctorate in Chiropractic" title can mislead his more gullible and less-educated clients and potentially cause harm in an area that Dr. K is NOT qualified in. Please, keep your personal feelings and political biases out of your chiropractic care.

Best chiropractor I've had, and I've used chiropractors in three states over four decades. Recently moved to Asheville, and I went to a chiropractor in Fairview, who wanted 20 visits to solve my neck issue. Not good enough. Dr. Kordonowy solved it in three visits. My M.D. recommended Kordonowy, and I'm glad he did.

We had a great experience! Being from out of town, we were not sure where to go for help with a back issue on such short notice. Not only were they able to fit us in, they were also friendly and helpful (they gave us a recommendation for a doctor close to where we live for a follow-up if needed). Would definitely recommend Kordonowy to anyone local or visiting Asheville!
