Staff were nice and efficient. Wait time was very reasonable and the office feels very professional. I saw Dr. Staker and he seemed very knowledgable. Currently, they have a choice concerning mask wearing but I noticed the office staff wear wearing masks and Dr. Staker is more than happy to wear a mask for patients like myself who feel most comfortable with mask wearing.

I initially went to a chiropractor (not Dr. STAKER - completely different practice) for migraines. I paid hundreds of dollars with no migraine relief and ended up having lower back pain as a result (no lower back pain prior). I'm so thankful I found Dr. Staker. He is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and very easy to talk to. He knows what he is doing! My back is better and his recommendations for exercise and what muscle to focus on has helped me so much! 10/10 recommend this practice!

I have been going here for 20+ years on an as needed basis to take care of any sports injuries. I am on my 50s and play soccer, water and snow ski, and rock climb. Staker Chiropractic helps me maintain peak performance.

I was disappointed with Dr Schemmel. I had visited him twice for headache and neck pain and felt zero improvement. He spent 5-7 mins with me each time while I waited 15+ mins in waiting area. When I asked how long it will take to improve my headache, he said I will have 50% improvement after 2 weeks (6 visits). Therefore, I decided to try another chiropractor who spent 45 minutes with me focusing on muscle therapies and adjustments and he resolved my concerns after the very first visit. Chiropractic care works but I would avoid this doctor.

Front end staff is awesome, doctor was very pleasant, and appointments are available same day. I'm leaving this review as Staker chiropractor office mailed me a letter to leave google review in order to receive a free Balm.

I have been dealing with pain in my upper back since February of 2021, pain was intermittent, mostly at the end of my day. I had only two visits to dr Williams;, and I am better. I believe as long as I follow the exercise he told me to do, the pain should not be back. Thanks dr Williams.

Dr. Staker is a fantastic Chiropractor. When I started seeing him he took Xrays of the area I was having trouble with before just jumping in like some of my previous experiences with other doctors. He then got me on a plan that got me back up and running (quite literally) and didn't pressure me to sign up for some ridiculous amount of sessions. As for the staff, they have always been respectful and kind to me and willing to answer any questions I might have. This is a great office and I'm grateful for the help that they've given me.
