I've been to chiropractors in the past but felt like they were rather quacky. They seemed to all explain away any back/neck problems as being caused by some fall I must have had in my childhood -- who hasn't had a fall as a kid??
Dr. Ben Sweeney is quite different! I was referred to him by a friend and only went after I'd suffered too long with excrutiating elbow pain. I'd been diagnosed by orthopaedic doctors as having "tennis elbow" and told by them that only time could truly make the pain better. I was told that it would probably be 6 months to 2 years before I'd feel normal again. In the meantime I was given a prescription for painkillers and told to be patient. Even physical therapists gave me little hope of any quick relief from the pain.
On my first visit to Dr. Sweeney I couldn't straighten out my arm and was in tears from the pain. He listened carefully and asked specific questions, without jumping to any conclusions. He took great time to xray my elbow and back and clearly explained that he felt the pain in my elbow was caused by problems in my back. His empathetic nature and calm, but friendly, personality encouraged me to give the process a try.
After only 1 week of treatment I knew that I'd made the best medical decision of my life. Just a few weeks later the pain was totally gone! Unbelievable!! I have proudly referred Dr. Sweeney to others and they are also grateful to experience his care!
