Report
My last chiropractor moved and left me looking for someone new. I tried Dewar Chiropractic off a recommendation from a friend and am glad I did. Having had neck issues for many years, it's hard to trust someone new to do that adjustment. Dr. Lance listened, and did a great job of assessing the best approach. Same with Dr. Dewar! It's a pleasure to come in, be treated like a priority, have the practitioner be engaged, and walk away knowing your care is the most important thing. Very thankful I took the recommendation. Another plus is their business runs smoothly, not a lot of waiting. Billing and making appointments is easy. Would give more stars if I could!

Report
I have been to many chiropractors in the past and I cannot vouch enough for Dr. Dewar and his practice. After my 1st appointment with them almost 4 years ago, I knew I found my place. Being an avid golfer and sharing with them where my issues are, he immediately got to work and I honestly felt great relief that lasted much longer than the previous chiros I have seen. They don't just "crack" you and send you on your way, they take their time understanding your ailment and focus on that. From the top to the bottom, I have never felt more comfortable being a continuous patient of theirs (which reminds me, I need to schedule again soon).

I always feel impressed by the knowledge of Dr. Dewar and how thoroughly he works not only to understand but also to treat your concern.
