Dr Kern is a professional as is the entire office staff. There you feel like you are with family, the treatment is exceptional. When I first came, I couldn't stand up on my own; Furthermore, she... walked bent over. In my first treatment I felt relief in my back pain; By the third treatment I could stand up on my own and today after several treatments I find myself walking straight. I am currently undergoing maintenance treatment. Finally, the entire office is very clean and tidy. My name is Santa O. Rosario Gonzalez.read more

Highly recommend it. I have been suffering from severe back pain for almost two years. So severe that I couldn't even walk for two minutes without having to stop and sit down. I have been going to... the doctors and tried everything, different pills prescribed and over the counter, different injections, yoga, different types of massages, physical therapy and even medical marijuana. Nothing work. A waste of time and money. I saw this advertisement for FREE consultation and decided to give it a try. From the first visit with Dr. Kern I felt a little better, not from the pain however from his kindness, concern and knowledge, so genuine. Dr. Kern took time to listen, explain and give me information. My first spinal decompression treatment was on 9/6/2023. I was sore however my back felt a little better the next day. The staff is absolutely great. They all go above and beyond from the minute you walk in the office. As of today 9/18/2023, I am relieved from that excruciating pain. I will continue my decompression treatment and follow all the instructions. I'm grateful to Dr. Kern and all the staff. God bless you allread more

She's a ball of sunshine who is always smiling. If you need something done, she's a great resource in the office!Matthew in decompression is an absolute master at what he does. He takes his job very seriously, which is great since his job is to help you get better. He will work tirelessly to make sure everyone who crosses his path in the office is given the time they deserve and it shows through his maticulous work. He's a great friend on top of it.Last, but definitely not least, is Dr. Graham W. Kern: Humble. Knowledgeable. Kind. Professional. Caring.He truly cares about you. About me. About everyone. He wants people to get better, he wants to give people the answers they may have been searching for years. He wants to give people hope.He has also helped my family immensely. After chronic back problems and repeated instances of losing function in my right leg, and my wife's shouder pain and numbness in her hand, Dr. Kern made us better.

Dr Kern and the entire staff at Disc Center are outstanding. From the first consult and down through my current treatments, they’ve been attentive and professional. Every person on the team gets to... know you with genuine caring, and the decompression benefits are noticeable within a few visits. I felt that Dr Kern was thorough and appreciated his diagnostics before moving me into the right treatment. I’ve done chiropractic for general health for decades, so when it came time to seek out some pain relief I was extremely critical of who I’d use, and Dr Kern is by far the DC that stood out as the go to. I am about half way in on my treatment plan and excited at the progress.read more

I don’t even know where to begin .I get teary-eyed thinking about it .I have suffered with lower back pain since I was 12 after falling on ice and breaking my tailbone .It just got progressively... worse as I got older. I would pull my back out two , three times a year .could barely walk . only relief I had was laying in bed flat .by the grace of God I was on Instagram and found decompression at Dr. Kerns office which I’ve been thinking about doing for quite a while finally decided to do it went in for treatment and since the treatment I have gotten such a great relief . my back hasn’t gone out in the last eight months since I’ve been going . I plan on going in for a tweaking probably for the rest of my life just like a car you’ve got to get serviced .so I am thrilled beyond words . I love the Kern family and their associates ..they are like family to me I love them all ❤️❤️❤️❤️read more

All of the staff was extremely nice, including the Doctor. I'm looking forward to getting started with my back.Update**Thoroughly DISAPPOINTED with my results!! ? Dr. Kern was excited about... getting me started on treatment and explained to my fiance and me that afterward, we could do a post-treatment MRI to see how much "good" the treatment did. At first, I felt a little better but then hit a plateau where I just didn't get any better throughout the treatments..and was just having a lot of pain! At the end of treatment it was a completely different "tune" from the doctor. He would NOT send me for a post-MRI scan saying that my case was too "involved to see the results we were expecting" and "I needed to take a couple of weeks to break then come back for more treatment bi-weekly".. for MORE money of course (not covered by insurance)..then just MAYBE we would see results!!?? ??? still nothing was ever said about an MRI for proof that any "good" and disc repair was actually being done. Very disappointing experience with the amount of money I paid. 3800$ CASH TO BE EXACT! If you have more than a few minor disc issues then DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!I will add this since this review triggered a phone call to us today.If the doctor would have been 100% upfront and honest in our initial consultation, (instead of half-truths)...Explaining that my case was way more involved than the average person AND that he suspected my treatment plan would take a lot longer than one single round, resulting in more money, than maybe my fiance and I wouldn't have been so upset with the first result at the end of treatment. However, I believe the Doctor knew that if he was 100 percent honest with us during the initial consultation, then we probably would have never started treatments too begin with. He claimed today on the phone while speaking to my fiance that the issues of my caliber could take a long time to resolve. Well, guess what Doc?? You never said that upfront!!!. We both were told, I WOULD see a difference. Maybe, if you would have been completely honest from the beginning, NONE of this would be happening. Now, you've left a horrible taste in my mouth from the way you attempted to resolve this. Do I think you care about me and your other patients, yes. However, I personally think you care MORE about the money.read more
