Best Chiropractor Ever - Dr. Cart and Dr. Dilliard are both amazing but Dr. Dilliard is so intuitive and when he treats your body he knows exactly where to go, what it needs and what to do. You don't even have to say anything half the time. They are both very uplifting and positive. The staff is friendly and awesome - been coming here for 2 years and soon moving out of state. Its going to be hard to find one to fill these big shoes. They don't just treat the spine here - it seems they have the knowledge of healing the body as a whole regardless of what your issue is.

Absolutely wonderful! First time going to any chiropractor. Doctor Dillard and his staff really took the time to educate me and reassure me I was in good care. I went in due to some back pain after lifting some heavy weights. Could barely move as it felt like a sharp pinch in my back then suddenly instant pain down my leg. They did some x-rays and found I had a sublixated spine. Provided me a treatment plan, all while working with my budget. I'm on my third month and already feeling the difference. Thank you!

I have been going to Dr. Dillard for about 3 yrs. My experience has been Great! My back issues and neck issues have improved since being treated. Everything is not perfect, but so much better with mobility! I have joint replacements in knees and hips. I work out in the pool which helps. Dr. Dillard has told me you have to show up and do the work. I will be showing up and continuing my progress Thank you, Dr. Dillard to you and your staff for all that you do!

I've been seeing him for 8 yrs and like the way he keeps track of your progress. He is always attentive to my needs and answers any questions I have. I also sent my husband to him and have referred friends to him. I consider Dr. Dilliard way beyond better then other chiropractors. If you want a great chiropractor that is personable and caring, see him. Terri and Mark Allgeier
