Excellent Chropractic care

by idavis at Citysearch

I work in the ER (emergency room) longs hours (12 hour shifts 5 days a week) and lots of stress (both physical and mental). Even though I'm in the medical field I try to do things naturally, in other words, I've seen the benefits of medication but I have also seen the devastating addictions and side effects.

When I developed neck pain/headaches a few weeks ago I saw in the local paper that Atlas Chiropractic Center was voted the best chiropractic office in Culver City for 2008. So I called and made an appointment for a free consultation...Dr. Beteta did a thourough exam and he explained the basic Chiropractic philosophy...locate, analyze and correct spinal misalignments to remove nerve interference and restore normal function. He took some x-rays (to rule out fractures, pathology and postural changes) then adjusted me by hand. After only one adjustment the neck pain was 10% better but the headache was gone instantly.

Dr. B explained that 10% of his patients have miraculous results, 10% may have a slight negative reaction and 80% have little to no improvement after the first couple of adjustments. But he noted that all 3 reactions were normal. I'm still under care and I continue to improve a little every visit (FYI: headaches are still gone).

I'm very happy to have found this great Chiropractor and I highly recommend you try him.

Best Chiropractor in town

by bobcarlson1 at Citysearch

Dr. Beteta will go out of his way to explain everything from chiropractic adjustments to exercise, diet and lifestyle. I now go in for a quick "adjustment" about twice a month, and send in everyone I can.

Pam explained all of my insurance ins and outs to me (I didn't understand it before now!) and really worked to make it pay for most of my treatment.

In five visits my hip injury/pain has gone from 10 to 2 on a pain level scale; I know if I ever feel bad again, Dr. B will be who I'll call for help!

I really appreciated that I wasn't pressured to make and pay for months of treatments up front or take any kind of painkiller medications, buy bottles upon bottles of vitamins or suffer thru more pain. I walked away feeling good, pain-free, supremely relieved, plus lighter and taller.

I have had MANY bad doctor's office experiences: one chiropractor (at another place in WLA) insisted I make appointments for months in advance and pay 1 year up front: NOT HERE! This doctor and his (friendly) staff are the very best!!!!

• Pros: Great all around

Very Professional AND Easy To Talk To

by davidhgay at Citysearch

I have only known Dr Beteta a short period of time but after having worked with several Chiropractors over the years, I am very impressed. He is very efficient, professional and easy to talk to. It is so nice to be able to converse with a Doctor and not feel rushed or pressured. His demeanor and expertise in managing his business in well conceived and he comes across as the consumate professional. Culver City is very fortunate to have a professional like Dt Beteta.

• Pros: Easy to talk to and VERY Professional
