I am still under a recovery protocol with dr.packer but since I have come to precision spinal care I feel my body is being properly looked after and treated, without them I would be so much worse off after my accident. I am grateful for how pleasant and welcoming the staff is and how I can feel a real difference leaving after treatment. I still have another month of much needed treatment but I look forward to getting better and better after each appointment. I am thankful for dr.packer and everyone at precision spinal care!

Dr. Packer and the staff here at Precision Spinal Care have been more than helpful. They took the time to educate me on my chronic mid-back pain and provided a clear plan to eliminate it. After only six visits, my pain has subsided and I’m able to walk normally without back tension. I absolutely recommend this office; the entire team is extremely helpful!

I had pretty severe lower back pain when I first met with Dr. Packer. He scheduled me for a series of sessions where he explained what was the root cause of my pain, and then adjusted my neck area. After visits, bed therapy, and re-evaluations, my pain level has improved by at least 90%. I recommend Dr. Packer. He has helped me greatly. Also, the professionalism by him and his stall is remarkable.

I 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.

This 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!! ❤️

I was pain for months, Shoulder and knee. Went to other Chiropractors they just wanted to give me cortisone shots and not address the problem, So I decided to try someone different. Dr Packer took the time to find the root problem,explained it to me, then addressed it. One month of therapy and I feel amazing!! I would recommend Dr. Packer to anyone who wants to be pain free. Stem therapy Works folks...Thank you Dr. Packer

Life changing! For years I was in so much pain. I tried massages, other chiropractors, and medication. Nothing made a difference and I was beginning to accept the pain would something I just had to live with. I saw the $49 add and thought I had nothing to lose. The best decision I ever made. I now wake up without pain, I can exercise again, and overall I am in a much better mood because I’m not in pain. My only regret is not coming here sooner!!

First time coming to this chiropractor, I had severe lower back pain that ran all the way down my right leg, I could not get back up from bed, or bending down doing laundry, I couldn’t even pick up my son. After visiting Dr. Packer, I was skeptical at first but I trusted the process and I can finally do everything I couldn’t do and for that I am forever grateful for his knowledge and expertise and for his team the ladies are all very friendly! I highly recommend!!

When I was first treated by Doctor Packer, my back was hurting so badly that I walked bent over. Pain was unbearable. Now I am walking straight up and much less pain and discomfort. I’m so glad I found Doctor Packer and his treatments.

I was referred to Dr. Packer and his team after a car accident, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. From day one, they did a thorough evaluation to really understand what was going on with my spine and how the accident had thrown things out of alignment. They then created a personalized treatment plan to help get everything back on track — and it worked! What makes this office truly special is that they offer everything in one place: chiropractic care, physical therapy, and massage. The entire team works together seamlessly, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients’ recovery. I can’t recommend them enough — whether you’ve been in an accident or are just tired of living with pain, Dr. Packer and his team can truly help you feel better.
