Customer Reviews

I have seen Dr Whelton for 10 weeks of physical therapy and he has helped me with my back more than any doctor 8 have seen. I started with back pain in 2016, was asked how I was walking and had chiropractor services to ease the pain. I have been told I need surgery but I’m afraid to do it. The physical therapy has helped me more than anything. The exercises help keep everything in place. Less money, less pills. No surgery. I would recommend Dr Walton to anyone with back pain.I’m happy with my results! Thank you Dr. Wheaton!!

I have been dealing with lower back pain since August 2018. Unknown to me as to what the real true cause was I tried multiple things to try to alleviate the persistent pain over the course of almost two years. These things ranged from me trying to self heal, to going to chiropractors, to even getting injections in my lower back. None of it had any long term effects and only provided short term relief for a couple hours at most. I was thinking that I might just have to live with this pain for the rest of my life. At age 40 that was not a comfortable thought and I certainly did not want to have surgery and risk having even greater complications. Thankfully the day I went to see Dr. Whelton was the day my life slowly started to change for the better. During the first visit he intuitively diagnosed me and gave me detailed instructions on how to heal my body. At first I was skeptical like most would be but I’m glad I stuck with the plan as I feel I am truly on the road to recovery. Little by little my back is feeling better and better to the point to where I am now almost completely pain free. I would recommend Dr. Whelton to anyone who has tried multiple ways to alleviate their pain and have been unsuccessful. I would also recommend Dr. Whelton to anyone who just wants to skip all the other types of treatments and just start here. In either case you will be happy that you did!

I have had chronic pain for 20 years! I came to Dr Ryan with shoulder pain, low back pain and plantar fasciitis. I have been to countless chiros, podiatrists, physical therapists, pain doctors, orthopedic surgeons who gave multiple injections into my feet and back all to no avail. The army told me I would have to have my tendons in my feet cut and that would have ended my military career. Now, I came to Dr. Ryan 9 visits and ALL my pain on my body is gone! I am looking forward to an active pain free retirement. Thanks for everything!

I have had low back pain for 24 years and more recently hip pain too. I have tried chiropractors, acupuncture but the pain always returned. I saw a Facebook ad for DR Whelton i was super skeptical because noone 6 help me. Now in about 7 weeks i am good and started working out again i feel stronger and if i get the pain again he taught me how to fix myself without him!
