    I chose Corrective Chiropractic and drove an hour each way to my appointments because I had received an enthusiastic referral from someone who had had a wonderful experience working with Drs. Childs and Durr. At the time, I was experiencing a range of problems after eating meals. I was also having cognitive & emotional issues, insomnia, weight fluctuations and was extremely tired all the time. My GP found nothing, brushed it off as "stress" and prescribed an anti-depressant. The specialists I had seen could find nothing wrong with me. My sleep study came up normal. I knew I was not well and was desperate to find someone who could shed light on my problems. I didn't quite know what to expect in working with a functional nutrition specialist but I was open to something new. Dr. Durr ordered a series of blood tests and determined I had leaky gut syndrome among other things. He put me on a 6-month elimination & reparative diet in addition to several supplements to compensate for nutritional deficiencies. What I learned during this time from my office visits, CC's literature, and website videos was more informative and helpful than I could have imagined. I learned which foods I need to eliminate from my diet. I knew nothing prior to that about leaky gut syndrome, food sensitivities and their consequences as well as the damage of acid blockers and antibiotics, both of which I had been on for many years. After the 6-month program I was down to the weight I was in high school and my symptoms all but disappeared. I was shocked that even my seasonal allergies did not return, nor did my frequent cold sores! I never had to wait more than a few minutes to see the doctor, was never rushed during the sessions, and was always treated with kindness and respect by him and everyone in the office. My emails and questions to the doctor or the office were always answered very promptly. I'm extremely glad I chose Corrective Chiropractic and I since have recommended this practice to others.

    I went to see these doctors after having constant headaches and neck pain for a few years. They said they could help and in order to use them..I had to buy their services in packages, which was an outrageous amount of money. Maybe $3,000 or so to start...PRE PAID! I had to go 3x a week and never had one on one time with them. They literally just push you through the line with other patients and force you to buy loads of supplements which come with your expensive "package." They give you exercises to do that are supposed to train your brain, rather than fixing you structurally. Sometimes I'd wait in line to see them for an hour, even after making an appointment. They'd get stuck reviewing blood test results with other patients, meanwhile they had 40 other patients waiting in their office for an adjustment. I STILL have bottles of their supplements that I've never used, years later. I learned fast that they were money hungry. Biggest waste of money and biggest rip off ever. And they claim to be Christians? Spend your money at another chiropractor who actually gives you 30+ minutes of their time.

    They initially come off very legit but you quickly see how they don't care about the patient as an individual. It's just a conveyor belt of patients and I definitely didn't feel valued. Dr Durr has zero bedside manner, rarely smiles and seems like he dislikes his job and/or people. He does not comfort or reassure and isn't very friendly. When we discussed my bloodwork I'd gotten done through his lab, the results came back grossly incorrect - he told me I was in early stages of kidney failure! He asked if my general practitioner dr had told me I had kidney problems because my levels were high. My general practitioner did blood work on me less than a year ago, and again immediately after Dr Durr's results came back to make sure it was a lab error. IT WAS. My gen prac put my mind at ease (I'd been pretty worried after Durr told me I was in early stages of kidney failure!) and said the blood had sat too long in the tubes so the integrity of the blood was compromised which drastically skewed the results. I trust my gen prac completely and have never questioned his results; he's very well respected, and I've been with him for over a decade. When I confronted Dr Durr about this extremely serious error, he didn't even apologize, and didn't seem concerned at all when I said other people could very well be getting wrong results back too. Durr's response was "well, people can sometimes make incorrect calculations." I was totally shocked by Dr Durr's LACK OF CONCERN or care over this. Other people could very well be getting misdiagnosed because of faulty bloodwork and treated for conditions that don't exist! Dr Durr wanted to sell me about 8 supplements. I have a laundry list of food allergies and sensitivities and I asked if they were safe for me to take. He said yes, and I asked if the "other ingredients" in them would be safe too. I asked him what different ingredients were derived from that were listed on the bottles and he didn't know. He said he'd have to do some research and possibly find alternatives. I ended up going home with nothing but disappointment. He told me we'd have to reschedule, and again, never apologized even though I was driving an hour each way to get there. The older woman in reception is also rude and talked over me when I spoke to her. Overall, I was extremely disappointed. How can anyone POSSIBLY believe in a Dr or a practice who treats their patients like they and their time don't matter? Where is their integrity? Why are they even in practice if they don't genuinely care?
