UPDATED REVIEW -- 2 YEARS LATER:…read more
It has been 2 years since I started treatment, and unfortunately, I am back where I started. I regret investing $7,000 to ultimately be in constant pain again.
I want to update my original review because I feel it is important for anyone reading it today to know how my experience ultimately unfolded.
When I originally wrote this review, I genuinely believed this treatment had changed my life. Before treatment with Dr. Gertner, I felt helpless, disconnected from my body, and had zero motivation. I was only 27 years old and had been living every day with chronic neck pain, joint and nerve pain, and constant fatigue. Despite sleeping 8 hours a night, my energy was nonexistent.
I had seen countless specialists and chiropractors, desperately looking for answers, but none of them could pinpoint the cause of my symptoms. After being told repeatedly that because my blood work was normal, there was supposedly nothing wrong with me, I began to feel like I was crazy and slowly accepted that pain as my new reality.
Then I found upper cervical chiropractic treatment. From my very first phone call with Dr. Gertner, I felt hopeful. He reassured me that he had heard these symptoms before and was confident he could help. After my consultation, I felt validated and believed I had finally found the answer I had been searching for.
At the time I wrote this review, I truly believed I had my life back. I described waking up energized and with zero pain because that was genuinely how I felt at the time.
Unfortunately, two years later, my experience has changed.
I am now back to dealing with constant pain--the very symptoms I originally sought treatment for. After investing $7,000 and two years of my life into this treatment, it is incredibly disappointing to find myself back where I started.
Looking back, I also regret overlooking what I now consider to have been red flags, including being asked for $5,000 upfront. At the time, I was desperate for answers and so hopeful that I had finally found something that would help that I didn't question it the way I wish I had.
I am leaving this update because I don't want someone reading my original review to assume that the results I experienced at that time represent my experience today. They don't.
I genuinely believed in this treatment when I wrote my original review. That is what makes having to write this update so difficult.
I regret ever becoming a patient here.
