I visited recently for my consultation and adjustment and holy moly it was like a night and day difference.

Made it in and out of there in an hour and will go for a follow up in a couple of weeks. Finally feel like I have full mobility in my lower back and legs again and it's so exciting!

I am very active in sport and have injured myself quite a few times.

She also gives the best facial and head massage. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone who truly wants to heal and be better at knowing how to take care of your body.

I've been to DISC Sports and Spine multiple times over several years with consistently great…read moreexperiences. Dr. Todd Peters (now retired) and his assistant Kaylee were excellent for low back consultations, X-rays, and PT prescriptions--always available and thorough. Dr. Melikian, a spine specialist, saw me for neck/shoulder pain. Despite bringing neck X-rays/MRIs, he quickly identified shoulders as the primary issue (limited rotation vs. decent neck mobility) and referred me to Dr. Shore. He never rushed me, always ensured I had no more questions, and his assistant Joanna was phenomenal--one of the best I've encountered. She performed quick but detailed tests (grip strength, rotation, tender points) and genuinely cared, helping shift focus to my shoulder effectively. Dr. Vivek Babaria (pain management) treated chronic neck tightness and cervical radiculopathy. In 2023, he did facet joint injections; in 2025, an epidural steroid injection (C5-C7 herniations) that finally helped with issues where neck pain was keeping me from sleeping. His newer assistant Hank in late 2025 was equally impressive, starting with conservative treatment when I brought an MRI showing mild shoulder tendinosis/bursitis, prescribing PT and baclofen, then noting clear posture/pain improvement at month follow-up. They did not overtreat and go straight to another injection which was nice. From imaging reviews to injections and conservative care, everyone at DISC stands out for attentiveness and expertise. Highly recommend Dr. Melikian, Dr. Babaria, and likely anyone else for neck, back, shoulder, nerve, etc pain issues.

I was fortunate to be referred to Dr. Brett Shore after discovering issues with my hips, and from my very first appointment, I felt comfortable and well cared for -- a feeling that continued throughout my entire journey. I'm currently 16 days post-op from a left total hip replacement, and while I'll need my right hip replaced in the near future, I feel reassured knowing I'll be returning to this incredible team. Dr. Shore and his staff are friendly, welcoming, and professional. A special thank you to his surgery coordinator Mellany, who was not only kind but also responsive, thorough, and extremely helpful throughout the process. I can't overstate how warm and compassionate everyone has been -- from the office staff to the OR nurses and the pre- and post-op nurses at the outpatient center, conveniently located next door. I'd also like to give special recognition to Dr. Barrows, the anesthesiologist, who is hands down one of the most personable and down-to-earth providers I've ever met (and this was surgery number twelve within my lifetime). To be honest, I'm not sure how anyone could leave a review of less than five stars. My experience across multiple visits and appointments has consistently been outstanding. I've felt safe, informed, and genuinely cared for every step of the way -- and that means everything, especially when have to face another procedure in the near future. Thank you, Dr. Shore, for your honesty, for giving me options, and for making me feel empowered rather than pressured within the decisions I had to make when approaching my surgical options. Thank you, Dr. Barrows, for your sense of humor and calming presence. And thank you to the entire team for your kindness, professionalism, and truly exceptional care. I'm not exactly excited to have my other hip replaced -- but since I have to go through it again, I'm grateful to be doing it with this group!

I came in due to pain in the groin area and what did he do? Absolutely nothing, except order an MRI for me. He was wearing a suit, which you can tell he's afraid to get his hands dirty because he didn't even inspect anything on my body. I went to urgent care and then the ER, who referred me to see a urologist. He took 3 min to review the scans and said yeah looks like there's nothing showing...Okay, so why did I book an appointment if you're not going to do your own inspection or research to at least attempt to find where the pain is coming from? I asked if i could get an off work note because its hurting to stand 7 hours a day, like I literally can't stand for that long. He said he would write me a note, which he did not. Instead wrote a note to not exercise for 2 weeks. I knew there was a reason why he was the soonest appointment available. I wasted the copay, which is fine, I believe everyone deserves a chance even if they don't care about their patients.

I have a pretty significant herniated disc in my spine and every so often it flares up to the point of not being able to walk.

From my first initial visit they have always been able to get me in to be seen either the same day or next day. Other than being available to their patients, their staff and doctor have been incredibly kind and empathetic to me, which is very important when someone in pain comes to you for help when they are in pain. Thank you to their wonderful staff and doctor, I am glad that their is a clinic like this in our community!
