I had a job that I enjoyed for 20 years. I had to quit because I couldn't handle the brain fog and dizziness while working anymore. Add to that, a terrible neck pain that hurt so bad I couldn't move my neck to the left or right. I'd gone to docs, neurologists, pain specialist, arthritis specialist, balance center and on and on... I was given pain meds and massages but no one could figure out WHY. The last straw was a pointless spinal tap. Ultimately, I was advised to go to the Mayo Clinic. My cousin found Dr. Mark and told me to give him a try. I did. He's done more in 4 months than the other docs had done in 10 years. I can move my neck completely, no pain. Brain fog, gone. He explains what he does and why he does it. He spent enough time with me to figure out WHY I had all these issues and HOW to fix them. He works with my schedule. He will wait if I'm running late. He's smart and kind and I cannot say enough. If you're sick and giving up, give him a try! You won't regret it. :) read more

Guy is so self-absorbed into himself, never asked about why I'm seeking chiropractic care. The conversation was all about him and how great he is. I never made the appointment because he couldn't commit to a price. read more

Dr Mark Keresztesy is a Great Atlas Orthogonist. I've been seeing him for years. It's rough at times though..... With all the pain I was in, I was kind of rough on Dr Mark, however, he handled it with professionalism. There was even several times where I would text him (yes, he tells you to text him at anytime, imagine that!) and he offers to meet me at the office at 9pm at night. One time I actually took him up on it and he were at the office for 2 hours trying to get relief for my condition. Dr Mark is not your typical "stretch and yank" chiropractors, he will customize your treatment as needed. There was one time when money was real tight and he told me to pay him when I can. I did. It took me a year but I did it. If you are able, he will put you thru a long evaluation with xrays and such in order to best suit your needs. He goes over all of it with you and then tells you the best approach. He has helped me tons, unfortunately, my condition has a mind of its own and fights whatever medical help I get from several doctors but if I was asked, I would call Dr. Mark Keresztesy my Friend because of all the "above and beyond" work he has put into me. read more

I found Dr. Mark after my fantastic TMJ MD & DMD Dr. Mark Piper recommended that I find an accredited practitioner of Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic as taught by The Sweat Institute to work on my twisted C1 vertebrae (and neck in general). Long story short, my jaw was broken, neck whiplashed, and neck spine twisted up like a pretzel after ~15 years of failed treatments and mis-diagnoses following a bicycle vs. car accident. Dr. Piper worked wonders on my jaw, but I needed some serious help with the neck and spine. Dr. Mark has provided that and then some, working to align my C1 vertebrae (and keep it there for longer and longer periods). He's also done wonders for my spine, as I've slowly begun to "unwind" over the past months. My quality of life has improved greatly, and I've been able to move along well in reducing the use of post-jaw surgery meds. As for my experience, the first appointment was long, as Dr. Mark performs a full exam, including x-rays and consultation on how to best get you fixed. I was informed of this up-front, and knew to expect it. Typical to most chiropractors, you start off with 2-3x weekly sessions, which reduce in frequency as you show consistent improvement. Appointments are 30-45 mins on average - pretty typical - but Dr. Mark will take the time to figure out your customized adjustment settings early on to ensure he gets it right. He also consults with the nationally known Sweat Institute as/if needed on your treatment, which is an awesome resource to have. Bottom line: this is not your standard "stretch and crack" chiropractor, and you should research this chiropractic method. It has a unique approach, and has provided fantastic results for many in chronic pain. But like any treatment program, it requires you to adhere to the program and the appointments to get the most out of it. I'm extremely glad that I did the research, found Dr. Mark, and stuck with the treatment program. The results have been great, and it's been great to have a strong supporter and advocate in Dr. Mark. read more

By far one of the best chiropractors in the Chicagoland area. As a strength athlete, I visited Dr. Mark after noticing in-balances in my strength, posture, and muscles. As an avid fan of Elliot Hulse / Strengthcamp (youtube) I learned that a misaligned atlas could be to blame. After visiting Dr. Mark I quickly noticed the difference, Dr. Mark aligned my atlas and my strength in Benchpress, Deadlift, and Squat quickly increased. In fact my body responded so well to Dr. Marks atlas alignment, I was able to achieve a total combined lift weight of 1,005 lbs in those three lifts. My body felt better, by posture improved, and my strength gains were tremendous. If you are an athlete, strength trainer, or do any kind of physical activity, make sure to get checked out by Dr. Mark. You will be surprised at how much you will improve with your atlas correctly aligned! read more

I was in a car accident 4.5 years ago and have been suffering from horrible vertigo and migraines since then. I was seeing the closest chiropractor to my house with adequate management, but I didn't seem to get better and stay better for more than a couple of days. After my insurance coverage ran out for the year, I didn't want to pay for what I had been getting at the old doctor for years, so I found Dr. Mark. Dr. Mark spent the first appointment consulting, examining, and x-raying me for almost 2 hours. He was very thorough. I saw him again 2 days later for my first adjustment. I had seen the other doctor for several years, so I knew what to expect, but I did not expect to feel better immediately. I really did feel better immediately. The vertigo went from a pounding annoyance to a mere whisper in minutes and stayed that tolerable way until the next adjustment 2 days later. Then it was gone and has stayed gone for a full week. The adjustment appointments are around 20 minutes based on what all is needed that day. I am amazed that I don't feel stiff and constantly crave a massage anymore. I can actually check my blind spot without wincing in pain! A bonus that happened was my wrist numbness that I have had literally forever is gone. I stopped sleeping with a wrist guard 2 nights ago, and my hand no longer goes numb while driving, typing, or anything that would normally set it off. That is amazing. Dr Mark is friendly and personable. The other people in the office are super nice. They have a cute office dog who is a sweet little pup. :) read more

I previously wrote a great review, as Dr did make huge improvements in my Grandson. However, he became very controlling. Even trying to get us to submit his letter on how the play should be changed to meet his standards, to the Broadway tour managements. They declined, as do not need someone dictating their performances. Then, as we had to move on to the next city, and would not travel back to see Dr K, he will not send us our statement so that we can submit it to the management for reimbursement. It came to about $3500, as he demanded I bring my Grandson daily. And, took several X rays. Some, that are not good enough for another chiropractor to discern early stages and improvement. At this time, we are considering taking legal action to get the statement as have requested it for almost two weeks with no results. read more

I am so grateful to have found Dr. Mark! I have a history of lower back/hip pain, but needed relief from a recent neck injury that limited my neck/shoulder movement and caused headaches, even slight vertigo. My primary doctor couldn't pinpoint the source of my neck pain and l had limited progress with other chiropractors. Via Google, I came across Dr. Mark and learned how Atlas Orthogonal treatments alleviated neck pain. Because my discomfort was increasingly affecting my sleep and daily life, I was desperate to try something new and I'm so glad I did! In a matter of 3 months (initial visits @ 2x per week), he did more than any other doctor, chiro, PT, etc. that I have worked with! I say that because in addition to relieving my neck issues, he adjusted my lower back/hip and permanently got rid of the chronic pain that other specialists couldn't. My body now feels much "healthier", I can move my neck completely, and I am sleeping much better. My husband even says I look taller. :-) Dr. Mark takes the time to listen to you and works diligently trying to figure out the cause of your discomfort. His office is about 40 min from my house and I have a busy lifestyle, but he works with my schedule whenever I go for maintenance and the visit is always worth my time. He is VERY knowledgeable, friendly, and truly cares about his patients. I'm glad I didn't give up on chiropractors....I just needed to find the right one. He is very practical about his treatments and is the only chiropractor I would go to. I suggest you give him a try...you won't regret it! (Just know your first visit may be long because he really takes the time to hear your concerns and evaluate your injury. You'll never feel rushed and will quickly realize his dedication to helping his patients.) read more

Dr. Mark came recommended by a friend who is a firm believer in Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic treatment. His office is not a close ride for me but I am glad I made the first visit. He is not only a professional at what he does but you can tell by talking to him that he has a great passion for helping people. He sounds like someone who is constantly researching and trying new methods. I recommend him to everyone I know and if you think you can benefit from chiropractic care give Dr. Mark a call and schedule a visit, you won't regret it. read more

Dr. Keresztesy has improved my quality of life! I have MS and Ménière's disease and some of my symptoms have been disappearing. After the first treatment my neck and shoulder pain was gone. My walking and flexibility have improved after adjustments. My legs and hips are more balanced resulting in less balance issues. My dizziness has improved greatly and I have not had any vertigo since starting treatment. My hearing has improved and tinnitus has been lessened. Dr. Keresztesy is extremely knowledgeable and professional, as well as friendly. If you follow his guidelines you are sure to improve from whatever condition ails you. I have hope again and have planned a 25 yr anniversary trip with my husband! read more

Dr. Mark is a very knowledgable & well-trained doctor. I started visiting Dr. Mark's office a few years ago because I had been having extreme headaches & a lot of tension built up in my neck & shoulders. I decided I would visit this place, & it was the best decision I had ever made! I leave the office feeling wonderful & like a new person each time! After each visit, my headaches won't come back for about 6-8 months. Not only is he very good at what he does, he's also a very professional & kind man. I would highly recommend Dr. Mark to anyone! read more

I thought this was going to be the answer to my prayers for relief. 10 weeks, 3-4 times a week, 2 hour appts, if I wasnt first he always made me wait. Talks alot about his personal life. The last straw.....after all this time and all this money his comment was, "I wish I could remember what I did when this was helping". Admits he is not a good records keeper, If you live close maybe not so irritating, or if you have insurance that helps with the costs. I live an hour away, and no insurance for chrioprators. The stress of all these things made my adjustments a waste of time. read more

Among the most important qualities a doctor can have are 1) ability 2) an attentive ear and, 3) concern for people. Dr. Keresztesy brings all of that to his patients. Not only is the Atlas Orthogonal method a different form of chiropractic care, but Dr. Keresztesy is a different kind of doctor. His combination of skill, willingness to take whatever time is necessary with each patient, and determination to bring individualized solutions are characteristics rarely encountered in today's world of medicine. With his help I have experienced increased mobility and flexibility. So whether you've been to a chiropractor before and are familiar with its benefits, or are just considering it, I highly recommend Keresztsy Chirorpactic. read more
