Cured my baby's colic

by Animily at Citysearch

Shortly after my son was born, he developed colic. He would cry for hours and hours at a time. We couldn't put him down--my husband, mother and I had to pass him back and forth because he always wanted to be held. We were at the pediatrician once a week, with no relief. We tried every possible remedy. Finally, (why didn't I do this sooner???) I called Dr. Patrick, who had helped me with my own back and neck problems in the past. At my son's 1st appt., he screamed through the whole thing. Dr. P was very patient and gentle. At our 2nd appt., my boy cried a little and wiggled at being manipulated. By the 3rd appt., he was smiling. The colic was gone. Dr. Patrick really knows his stuff--for patients of any age. Highly recommend!

• Pros: An excellent chiropractor and healer for me and my family

Migraine miracle worker

by veniceresident at Citysearch

I first visited Patrick for treatment of back pain, and when I mentioned that I also suffered from migraine headaches, he suggested he could treat those as well. I was quite skeptical as I've had migraines since I was a teenager, and had just simply learned to live with them. At the time of my first visit with Patrick in the fall of 2008, my migraines were worse than they had ever been - I had one nearly every single day. I was taking two kinds of prescription medication, and was seeing a migraine specialist as well as an accupuncturist. Within the first month of Patrick's treatment, the frequency of my migraines had signifcantly decreased, and now, several months later, I'm completely migraine free and not taking any medication. My quality of life really has improved from his treatment, and as a bonus, he's a fun and funny doctor to visit - I recommend checking him out.

So Much More than a Chiropractor!

by Elise5898 at Citysearch

My original intent was to find a chiropractor and one that was close to where I work. I must admit that I was curious about Patrick from reading all of the reviews here on City Search. I have been so happy about my experience as I have been getting healthier each week I go. I had a chronic bladder infection that he advised to treat with a supplement that totally cured it saving me from a round of antibiotics. And, I had a terrible problem with my jaw where it was locked up, my bite was off and I had terrible ear pain. Patrick adjusted me and I was instantly pain free, saving me from another possible round of antibiotics which are commonly perscribed for ear infections. Understanding what an amazing resource Patrick is, I have decided to tackle some ongoing problems that I have had for years with my thryroid and adrenals. So far, so good. Have to say the muscle testing is amazing and I found out that I had bought way to many supplements at the health food store that my body really didn't need. I have to agree with many of the people here, his work is really amazing and I am so glad I found him! Should you decide to experience his work, you won't be disappointed.
