Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, The Back Doctor emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center.
We understand that arriving at a doctors office for the first time can be nerve racking. Filling out paperwork, learning new faces and names, and getting to know your way around the office can be an overwhelming experience. That's why at The Back Doctor our aim is to remove any stress or causing unnecessary tension and to make you feel comfortable.
Chiropractic care is like building a house - certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work correctly. When building a house, if you tried to put up your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually collapse. If you tried to put on your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem.
Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Thomas Reardon to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr. Thomas Reardon to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.
Most people are under the assumption that if they don't feel any pain that there is nothing wrong with them - that they are healthy. Unfortunately, pain is a very poor indicator of health. In fact, pain and other symptoms frequently only appear after a disease or other condition has become advanced.

Money, money, money. It's all about the money. He will have you go 5 times a week forever if you let him. He will sell you every crazy gadget and even orthotics. After months of paying for out-of-pocket visits, I got smart and quit going. I ended up being in worse condition than when I first started going there. I guess it's true what they say about chiropractors.

This location is located in a shopping center with multiple other stores. because it is in a shopping center there is plenty of parking and no assigned stalls for each store front. directly next to this chiropractic shop is an incredible hair salon and if you're a girl you know how long it takes to dye your hair. I arrived at the salon at 2 PM and after a full foil, shadow root, partial balayage, shampoo , co do too we, blow dry and cut and curl I was done and was sitting in my car at 6 PM. it took four hours and I was so hungry that I was sitting in my car eating my chips.

Gather 'round friends, because I'd like to tell you a bit of a tale about a moment of foolishness. A few years ago I was with a few my of my oldest and closest friends for our annual reunion trip. On this particular year we decided, perhaps against our better judgment, to embark on an adventure of downhill mountain biking. Now mind you, I have absolutely zero experience with downhill mountain biking. But what could go wrong?
Well, we had a really great day, and there were almost no accidents or injuries. As we reached the end of the day, we decided to spend a few minutes in the mountain

I came in on a friend's recommendation. I'm so glad I did. Not only did Dr. Reardon straighten me, my hunch is gone! I grew an inch too! How, you say? Went to my family Dr right after an adjustment and low and behold, I went from 6.0` to 6.1`( I see Fam.Dr. about every 3 month's. After multiple ajustments). How cool! Dr. R. Is also very good at explaining the issues you are having in layman's terms. Now I know what its like to feel good! Thank You Dr. Reardon!
I cant see how the bad reviews are real.
Insurance was no problem. Seamless.

They get the job done. It may not be fancy inside but I think that's because his focus is helping as many people as possible. Their approach is holistic-- avoiding medication and surgeries. I think the office is so busy because after a few visits, patients realize he is there he genuinely wants to help. He's not just a back doctor, he addresses the problems that cause the back problem (foot, hip, posture, lifestyle). Unfortunately, insurance doesn't always cover the number of visits necessary to heal but they sell quantity packages at reasonable prices. I'd take a life

Amazing results with back and neck problems I have had for years. He explains my problem clearly and tells me what he will and and tells me what I can do at home to help amplify his treatments. Great staff doing great work. I have made more progress in last month than in last 10 years of other attempts. THANKS DR REARDON (Aramaic rules)

I have suffered from back and sciatica nerve pain for four years. Years of physical therapy, acupuncture, exercise, massage and orthopedists I found Dr. Reardon. He has identified the source of the pain and is working change the structure and health of my back. I have total trust in his knowledge and his patience in dealing with my spine issues.
The Staff is caring and honest. I believe they have worked with my insurance company to get as many visits covered as possible. I highly recommend Dr. Reardon

Having been to a few chiropractic clinics in Seattle, Bellevue and Renton, I can say this is the best clinic I have been to. They offer me to use the massage bed before getting adjusted to loosen up the back which is very helpful. Dr. Reardon is also a top quality Chiropractor and it's very hard to find someone with this expertise on how to extract the most potential out of your body and improve athletic performance. His techniques are very effective and you can immediately feel a difference in your body. He also shows a lot of enthusiasm about helping you and takes the time to explain every part

When I was in a car accident, one of the people I went to see what Thomas Reardon at the Back Doctor in Renton, referred by another doctor. They refused to charge my insurance and said that it wouldn't be covered even though I don't them that my insurance covered the last chiropractor and I just had co-pays; they dismissed what I said and said that they would just put a lien on my car accident claim.
When I received my first statement from them, there were finance charges on there... I called to asked why there were finance charges on the bill if they knew it was car accident and that

I would give this place negative stars if I could. Their accounting practices are beyond suspect and the doctor is a turn-style where all he does is schedule folks to increase his pocket book and there's no recovery plan. I had an accident and went here, they refused to bill my insurance, so they can continue getting a higher rate by putting a lien on my account; continued to give me equipment with out letting me know that it wasn't going to be covered by my insurance.
These people aren't even reasonable to deal with after finding this out, they are more of a headache than the insurance

Before making the appointment for my husband, I called our insurance to verify this office was on our preferred list and what they would cover. Our insurance company is great and covers everything with a small $30 co-pay. I then decided to call this office to make an appointment, being sure to let the admin know of our insurance company and asked them to do an authorization with them. I also, asked if they took Care Credit and if she could look into it for me (a credit account we use to pay for co-pays). The woman, who I thought was being helpful, was more just rushing around the subjects and

Been coming here for a few years (avg ~20 adjustments/year) and Dr. Reardon is fantastic. Staff is friendly and on a first name basis. This is my go to Chiropractor for back pain from my bad posture and any other back issues that come up. I had a couple injuries which required delicate adjustments over a month's time, and though painful (from the injury), fixed the issue.
Appointments are not required, so walk-ins are welcome. Unfortunately due to this, sometimes the wait can be 30-40 minutes before Dr. Reardon can see you and he is the only chiropractor in the office. Many times he has stayed

I wish i could give this place no stars because they dont deserve any. i had never been to a chiropractor before them so i didnt know what to expect. after my 1st visit the "doctor" told me i would need to come 3 times a week for 3 months then 2 times a week for a month then i could just come once a week. that was pretty impossible for me to do & being a single mom i really couldnt afford that. he ended up giving me a belt that was supposed to help with my tilted pelvis, it was a lifting belt. once that happend i figured he didnt know what he was talking about so the next day i went
