I am a lifelong endurance athlete, and I was a patient at Optimal Performance Center twice in the…read morelast 10 years. Both times for injuries affecting my training and daily activities (e.g., ability to walk, work, etc. - let alone race). To me it is important to share: This practice crossed very serious ethical and professional boundaries during the course of my care. When I raised concerns in an attempt to resolve the issues, my concerns were not addressed. The issues persisted and in fact escalated. Rather than addressing any of this, OPC instead terminated my care. Following termination, I dealt with repeated contact and inappropriate behavior from individuals associated with the practice, actions which were intrusive and extremely distressing. All of this significantly affected my sense of safety and well-being and continues to do so. Patients enter clinical care expecting professionalism, boundaries, ethical conduct, and accountability. Those standards were certainly not upheld. I have had great experiences at many other practices across the St. Louis region. I cannot more strongly recommend that patients look elsewhere.

I am extraordinarily busy so I try to get his earliest appointments, often scheduling 6 weeks in advance to make sure I'm the first person. The only reason I'm writing this review is I'm at my 7:20am appointment and it's 7:42 and he still has a patient ahead of me. Targeting About a 30 -40 minute wait time. Again, my time was 720am. I'm supposed to be home feeding my.little girl who has down syndrome. My wife has waited as long as 2 hrs past her time. Again, we are still patients. The wait is worth it as our issues are getting resolved health wise, but you'll want to plan ahead like bring a book like war and peace or build a house while waiting or I don't know solve time travel. You'll have time for all of those.

My mom has been rear ended four times, causing a LOT of pain in her back and hips--one of her legs is shorter than the other as a result of slamming the breaks right after being hit to prevent the car from flying forward. Doctor Boen has offered my mom a lot of relief, with the addition of offering wellness advice. My mom got hip surgery, which helped her pain as well but still gets adjusted and feels relief from tension buildup. As for me, I started coming in more frequently in high school. I ran track and xc and still live a pretty active lifestyle. With running often comes injury, which was the case for me countless times. Doctor Boen not only adjusted me after hard workouts, but also laser treated my ankle fracture and gave me acupuncture. She also has shown me stretches for shin splints, which offered great relief. I highly recommend Christe! She is incredibly talented, caring, and personable; she wants you to feel better completely, adjustment and all. She has seen me grow up and always asks for a life update, which shows just how much she cares. -Abby
