Dr. McKinzie is one of the kindest people I know. He truly cares about his patients, takes the time to listen, and seek the best options for each individual with a targeted plan for their specific conditions. He doesn't quickly "adjust" and boot you out the door. Jan, at the front desk always has a smile and makes everyone feel comfortable and welcome. If you are in pain or have medical issues, it might be an upper cervical alignment issue. Check it out. what have you got to loose?
