I’ve been coming to Dr. DeFabio and the team for a bit over 6 months now, and I must say it has been life changing. Each member of the team makes me feel so welcome and heard about my pain and they *genuinely* want you to feel better and will make sure you don’t leave until you do!!
Dr. Mike has been helping me with a lower back and hip issue the last 6 weeks and each time I leave I think about how grateful I am that I found this place. He listens to me about what is causing the pain, what I’ve tried, and what I think helps and we adjust each session around the base we found that works for

Dr. D is absolutely one of best in the business. He is very detailed oriented, very knowledgeable, but most of all compassionate about his patients. He provided very thorough and detailed approach to my lower back pain which Dr. Mike has been able to help me through over the past 2 months. Dr. Mike has been very beneficial towards my recovery as well as relief with the pain going down my legs and into my feet also very detailed and compassionate. My back pain continues to get better every week and that is a true testament to DeFabio Chiropractic and how well they "all" work together! The staff

He really takes his time, cares for his patients and is passionate about helping and educating others on their health and wellness.

I have seen about 15 orthopedists, podiatrists, osteopaths and physical therapists altogether and Dr DeFabio is the only person who helped me.
