Dr. Shields is excellent! My husband and I have been his patients for several years. He has successfully treated us both for lower back and sciatic nerve pain. While I was in once for my back, he noticed severely limited flexibility in my shoulders from a surgery 20 years prior. He restored a greater range of motion than I thought possible with just one adjustment! He has also treated my neck, knee, and a decades old ankle injury. Dr. Shields teaches his patients exercises to help prevent problems from recurring in the future. We’ve never had a problem getting an appointment within a few days of calling, sometimes even the same day! We highly recommend Dr. Shields!
Dr. Shields is just what I was looking for! I grew up in a household that looked askance at chiropractors, and until now, I had only ever been to one years ago and I wasn't sure whether it was effective or not. This spring I developed a super tight, stiff neck and upper back. I tried YouTube videos for yoga and self-physical therapy, self-massage, and bought several new pillows. By the fall, when I tried the eighth new pillow and still felt uncomfortably stiff, I knew something needed to change. My question was: chiropractor or physical therapist? I opted for Dr. Shields' office because they take my insurance and the lovely receptionist was able to schedule me for the next day. Dr. Shields really impressed me with the amount of time he gave me. He talked with me first. Then, without even touching my neck, he was able to pinpoint the exact locus of pain, which made me feel like he really heard and understood. He adjusted me, gave me several exercises (showed me how to do them, watched as I did them and offered feedback and pointers), and gave me a pillow recommendation. I felt a bit better the following week, and after the third visit, I was virtually pain free. I am happy to report that I have no more pain and am working hard to adjust my posture as he recommended. I only wish I had seen him sooner. The office staff is efficient and friendly, and there's no hassle over insurance. Dr. Shields is really a three-in-one doc: he's the best combo of chiropractor, physical therapist, and personal trainer. He's extremely encouraging, insightful, and spot on with his treatment plan. I hope to not ever be back after my upcoming appointment, but if I get myself knotted up again, I'll know who to turn to!
Visited this office after having tingling in my left hand. After 3 visits the tingling was gone and was told a pinched nerve on my neck was causing the issue. Dr. Shields is very good and explains what is going on the whole time. I recommend this office very highly. I had tried Acupuncture and nothing had worked.
