I came in for neck/back and nerve pain that was disrupting day-to-day activities. Dr. Tauberg was able to narrow down the underlying issue and provide a path forward to relief. His guidance has drastically reduced pain/symptoms and improved daily life again! He really takes the time to assess your condition, and is able to put you at ease with any questions or concerns you may have. The visits never felt rushed, and I always left feeling more confident in the progress towards recovery. I would highly recommend Dr. Tauberg for chiropractic services!
