I met with Dr Samec today who will now be my physician. He was familiar with my med history which put me at ease. He spent what I felt was a great deal of time talking to me and asking questions. He was so very patient with me as I shared issues about my med history I wanted him to be aware of. Dr Samec is experienced, thoughtful and caring. Working closely with Dr Samec is PA Laurie Hughell. If you are seeking treatment for osteoporosis or rheumatoid arthritis, I recommend Dr Samec and Laurie Hughell. I have trusted my care to this office for 18 years. I rarely write reviews but if you are new to the area or looking for a new provider, I highly recommend this team. Mutual trust must be the bedrock of a good doctor/patient relationship.

Dr Blake Meyer was outstanding, really reviewed my case and went over all the areas I had pain, (shoulder, hip, low back). His diagnostic process was thorough and followed with a quick explanation of what was going on in those troubled areas and his plan to treat them. His deep tissue massage of the shoulder was excellent. I left feeling far more relaxed and comfortable than after massage therapy. I'm not from Des Moines so he gave me a list of what to share with a Chiropractor back home. If/when I'm back I'll certainly visit again. Thanks Dr Blake!!!

Any other person who is sitting waiting can hear everything... he's very kind . I have Medicare and a supplement . It always covers all of my chiropractor care. However I received an additional bill from them for around 900$ . I was a Chiropractic claims analyst. Didn't feel right. Staff said they had forgotten to have me sign a paper for paying these charges. These are charges that Medicare didn't cover. . Sounds strange. Providers I think are to accept what Medicare and supplements pay. .i dont derstand the need for another $900 dollars from me? When I started questioning they said to ignore it and since I didn't sign it I didn't have to pay. Wonderful chiropractor and staff. but after initial visits average time was 5-8 minutes per visit . Very effective treatment but no patient privacy and felt like I was in an assembly line. His care was great but not going back. Other chiropractors don't give u a separate bill to pay what Medicare didn't. Almost an extra $1000??? I'm not saying he's doing anything wrong. The hippa yes. But if I was still a nurse claims analyst I'd be digging a lot deeper.

I told them from the get go, my goal would be to adjust what needs to be & be able to visit as little as possible. My lower back injuries were from high school, and not only did they asses it flaring up again - they took me through everything I needed to do to get myself adjusted & feeling back to myself again. They were super easy to talk to, work quickly & their hours are perfect to get in before work. Everything about my visit is wonderful, I look forward to visiting again, though, with their care, it won't be for a while!

My experience with Aspire Physical Therapy has been completely different from any physical therapy…read moreI've received in the past. Most clinics I've been to treat multiple patients at once, moving quickly and giving basic instructions--reps, sets, and what to do at home--without ever really explaining the why behind the treatment. Time always feels limited, and care can feel generalized. Dr. Dan Halfman takes a completely different approach. His care is hands-on, intentional, and truly patient-focused. He listens, takes the time to fully understand your condition, and provides solutions that go far beyond anything I've experienced before. As a retired military member, I've had my share of physical therapy over the years--but none of it comes close to this level of care. His knowledge is on a completely different level, and the results reflect that. He has helped both my husband and me in ways we didn't think were possible. After having four plates and sixteen screws placed in my foot--and dealing with complications that caused significant nerve pain--I felt stuck. Dr. Halfman didn't just treat symptoms; he taught me how to understand pain and work through it using his techniques and insights. That perspective alone has been life-changing. I can't recommend his clinic enough.
