Also, the professionalism by him and his stall is remarkable.

Richard Quast200 days agoI came to Dr. Packer after over 20 years of hopping from one person to another with short-lived results and frustrated that it looked like until the end of my life, I was going to have to spend money getting maintenance check-ups every other week, but I wasn’t doing that so I would live in pain for a while and then give in and go to somebody else with the same scenario. One day while lying on my couch crying that I needed someone who could help me so this wouldn’t continue forever with this chronic pain…I came across Dr. Packer during a Google search. I listened to His videos and testimonials of people that have been to him with such good results. It really was a moment where I heard God speak to me and say.. This is the person that you need to go to. And so made the appt. to come in. I’ve been pleased with not just him but the whole office of assistants that he has working with him that are pleasant since I came and continues every time I come twice a week. Knowing now, after coming to him, that I was out of alignment with my spine and him just knowing how to get it back, was life-changing. I’m still on the journey to recovery, which is why I’m signed into the program to come for three months twice a week. If you’ve been to multiple people like I have and don’t think that you’ll ever find something that’s going to help his approach is so different than any chiropractor I’ve ever been to. I have never heard of This type of chiropractor, but his approach is the best I’ve ever had and will ever have.
jasmine213 days agoThis review is sooo long overdue. Dr. Packer is truly an amazing physician. After my motor vehicle accident in 2024, I had some pretty severe injuries, and his compassion, skill, guidance, and techniques made a huge difference in my recovery. I’m so grateful for the care I received. He was one of the few doctors on my care team who I genuinely felt truly cared. Thank you, Dr. Packer. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent chiropractor!! ❤️
