I moved to North County in June while I was 7 months pregnant. Once my daughter was born, I asked a WhatsApp Mom group of North County who the best pediatric chiropractor was for my daughter, who had shoulder dystocia and tongue, lip, and cheek ties. Dr. Bridget Chelf came highly recommended by a number of women!

She will undoubtedly be a part of our lives for a long time

She also has an Acupuncturist, Massage Therapist and other specialists in and near her office. I need all of them, too.

By the time we got to see Dr. B we had been through 8 weeks of newborn exhaustion, breastfeeding struggles, doctors appointments, and the semi traumatizing tongue tie procedure. After just our first appointment we left feeling like we had help to get through it, and someone who wasn't going to brush off all of our concerns like all the pediatricians. She took real...read full review
