The rudest so called Dr. I have ever dealt with. He was mad because I did not pay them. I signed up in Auburn, Al. They need to close this location down. I was treated so poorly because I did not spend money at their location at the startup. But after my month of treatments I would have changed it to Columbus because I work in Columbus. This Dr. needs to be fired. You don't talk to patients like they are beneath you. We spend our money for a service and we are told we can go to any location for treatment. Our records follow us so every Dr. can see what is going on. Everyone keep in mind that if you don't spend your money with that location they will treat you poorly. read more

My first visit was with detailed explanation and patient care with the visiting doctor because Dr. Parrish was out on vacation. The receptionist was also patient and kind. I did not return for a month, due to death in the family. My second visit was a walk-in, and I spent some time at the front desk because I asked for a refresher on how the visits work. During the conversation, the receptionist said "he's ready for you" even though another customer arrived and could have been seen. I asked an additional question and when I got to the back, Dr. P was very rude to me and needs to work on his bedside manner. He said to me, what was taking you so long to get back here. I explained that I had questions. He then scolded me for not returning last month, which I explained I had death in the family. He spent less than 6 minutes with me. I feel that he needs another class on patient bedside manners. I left there in tears and expressed to the receptionist I would not return. This was a Thursday and on Sunday I went to the ER at Martin Army to learn his skills were a bit rough on me which led to painful muscle spasms. The first visit I was sore, but nothing like the second visit. He was quick and rough, and it was not necessary. I want to cancel my 90-day contract, because the other closest clinic is in Opelika or Auburn. I am retired military, 20 years' service, and will not recommend this doctor to our Soldiers, Family or Friends, and I informed the receptionist that I would not return to this clinic with this doctor.

Unfortunately, like other reviewers stated.. the chiropractor was an abrasive as*. The front desk person was not knowledgeable and seemed racist. When we finally went to the back, the chiropractor was judgmental and full of himself to say the least. I would not go back. I highly recommend other chiropractors in the area like Beres Chiropractic. Do not waste your money or time here. One adjustment and nothing changed. No relief. read more

Doctor was very attentive, was able to fix my problem Would recommend him highly. Very accommodating. read more

My family has benefitted from Dr. Parrish and the care we receive at The Joint Chiropractic. The office manager is always alert and helpful. The adjustments have always been precise for our needs, and the wait for treatment is never long. We usually leave laughing and encouraged. read more

The absolute worst doctor I've ever encountered. He is rude, uncaring, insensitive, insulting, Doesn't matter what you say to him he always responds with an insulting or derogatory comment. read more

Amazing I have had the best of care here and you can go any day of the week They are fast getting to you and straight to the point. Very caring staff They did send me out for X-rays first so they could see what they were working work. Safety of the patient first!! Love this place !! Must try! read more

The Joint Chiropractic - Beautiful sunset - Chiropractors Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

We tried to take our daughter in for hip alignment issue the day of a softball game. We checked her out of school with plenty of time to get there before they close for break from 2-3pm. We got there 20 minutes prior and were told they would not see us because we needed to be an hour early. Which is stated nowhere for this literal walk in clinic. We tried to explain the situation and told them we could not come back at 3pm because of her game. They did not care. I have been in customer service for most of my life, and I would never treat someone this way. The paperwork takes 5 minutes to fill out. The payment and alignment would take maybe 4 minutes. This was just awful care of a patient and selfish behavior. And now they've lost myself and my family members as patients as well. I asked for the number to corporate, and Vicki said she didn't know it. Luckily it's listed online though Vicki. The bed side manner here has always been awful. Apparently their customer care and service is also awful read more

Finally had chance to come back after. Driving 2 1/2 hour a year go during the week and they were randomly closed due staff issues... which I understood though annoyed it. By far the worst experience at a joint so disappointed that we decided come here instead of Jacksonville. I have the monthly membership that I never use up has we live 2 1/2 hours from the closet joint until they open one in Tallahassee. I wasn't going to be given my free one offered on my Google review for last year as I still have 4 to use for the month. So my husband who is packaged user should have been able to use the said free one. We both had to drive up here that day for it to been closed and we both had drove up here today. Now for the adjustment... the Dr wouldn't give me one. Said my health paperwork was to old. I get monthly adjust I've been a member since 2014 but with every appointment I have they keep records of what they are doing and any major new health problems I've had, have been recorded I know this because when I've visited other locations they have mentioned them to me. It seemed to me he just wanted to get me out of the office and not actually adjust me which is what I came in for. I used one of my sessions for an activator... He could have easily spent 5 more minutes with me to get the "health update he wanted before adjusting me". Instead of rushing me out. read more

The Joint Chiropractic - The owner replied to my first review. And didn't honor it... - Chiropractors Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

Do not go t this location. The Medical Director will charge you even if you don't get adjusted. The clinic is filthy and the tables are shredded. It's disgusting. Customer service is terrible. read more

I do not recommend Dr. Parrish! I came in for an adjustment and asked him not to pop my neck. keep in mind I've been getting adjustments at Tiger Town with no issue. I explained to him I have neck problems and my Dr. told me to never get my necked popped because it could be dangerous. Dr Parrish basically my Dr did not know what he was talking about and if he couldn't pop my neck he would not adjust me. This guy is an arrogant jerk! Do not use The Joint in Columbus ga!! read more

I purchased a membership and went here for a little over a year. The main chiropractor's actions were the reason I decided to leave. He made several comments that were rude, unprofessional, and downright inappropriate. For example, he told me I should stop having my hair braided because it was cheap Chinese hair thats probably carrying covid. Not really sure why a bald white man would be so interested in a black Woman's hair. His opinion was not requested nor were we even discussing the subject. This is just one example of the type of micro-aggressive comments he's made. In addition to this and several other little snappy comments I also noticed the way he treated me as a patient was distinctly different from how he treated other customers. For some customers he'd ask how was their week and how were the kids.... For customers that looked like me it was just "lay on the table, face down". I really thought I was just having a bad experience until I had a conversation with a complete stranger. She too was a black woman and she detailed pretty much the same experience I had. Also, his technique is quite aggressive. This was my first chiropractor so I didn't realize how aggressive he was (to the point where I'd be sore the next day) until I decided to try a different location. After visiting another branch out of town and seeing the way customers SHOULD be treated I finally decided I had enough and I canceled my membership. Not saying he's a racist but I definitely think he's a boomer with culturally and racially motivated micro aggressions. With that said, I love the business model of The Joint and I'd gladly try them again if they had another doctor. read more

My only goal in writing this review is to inspire change and improvement. My experience was the most unpleasant experience I've had with a chiropractor. The receptionist was fantastic. The chiropractor who treated me (9/12/22) was the main contributor to my poor experience. He did not greet me, which, for me, spoke to his bedside manner and interpersonal skills. Nonetheless, his treatment was rushed, rough, and uncomfortable. We are all human and I hold compassion for this chiropractor as he may have been having a bad day, however, a bit of gentleness and kindness go a long way. read more

WARNING!! I've read a lot of the reviews and it's clear that Dr. Parish has built a reputation of being rude, insulting and having incredibly poor bedside manner. He was rude to me and my wife multiple times. He rushes through exams in an aggressive way and is mediocre at best. Go somewhere else because you will likely have a bad experience! read more

My first time ever going to a chiropractor and it was an absolutely amazing experience. From check-in until I walked out their office, everything was top notch. They discussed their different options with me and even though they were busy, I still feel like the doctor was listening to me and thorough. Would definitely go to again. read more

The Joint Chiropractic - Front desk - Chiropractors Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

I don't mind the bruskness mentioned by other customers. What I do mind is redundant paperwork. Easy solution. Ask return patients if there are any changes to contact info or general health. Saves my time. Saves your time. Make me want to come back, or encourage me not to... As far as the adjustment. Bada bing bada boom. In and out. read more

I have been to so many Chiropractors throughout the years and this is by far the best place I have been to this far. I have even been to other branches of "The Joint" and this is hands down the best place. After my first visit the pain was gone! Dr Parish could tell where the pain was based off my body position. I will not go to another Chiropractor while he is practicing here. read more

I've been going for three years. I love how the Dr does his work, it is not too rough. it's exactly what I need a and I leave every adjustment feeling awesome. read more

I was looking forward to my first visit at The Joint Chiropractic in Columbus, Ga and during my phone call with an employee by the name of "Kay", I asked if masks were required at their facility. Kay told me "no, you can wear one if you want but most people don't wear one. It's up to your comfort level". I responded that I would not be comfortable in their facility with other people not wearing masks, and therefore, would not be able to come in afterall. Kay, nonchalantly said, "Ok, that's fine". Clearly, this place doesn't care whether they have new customers/patients or not and it doesn't seem that they care about their current customers, based on their lack of effort in protecting their customers from exposure to Covid 19. read more

I went in this establishment last night for shoulder pain which wasn't even touched on nor was I asked if I had specific pain anywhere the whole "adjustment" lasted about 20 seconds... I've been to many Joints and this by far the worst experience I've ever had... the bald "Dr" didn't greet me or ask how I was feeling.. he simply demanded I lay down face up and started aggressively popping my neck and then my back...it was seriously ridiculous how he performed his job... he acted like he annoyed that he was having to stand up from his chair to do his job... my coworkers went just before me and were complaining of back pains this morning because of the way he performed the " adjustment"I really wish I would have waited to go back to my local location which is not in this state... it's very clear now from reading the previous reviews and comments that this guy will not get any better so save yourself the aches and pains from an over aggressive "Dr" and find elsewhere to go for an adjustment. read more

If you call and cancel make sure you check your bank statements and get it in writing that they have. The reason I don't recommend this office is that I called in December to this location to stop my dads contract. Fast forward to august this year and they still had been charging him. I called several times and email and still nothing. Getting the run around with getting my fathers money back. Saying that they can't do anything they called this person and that person. At this point I think a lawyer may have to reach out. read more

This was my first time every seeing a Chiropractor. I now not only feel great but very better informed about my body.

Buyer Beware!! The beauty of leaving a review is we can either tell people about a wonderful experience or a horrible one. With this review I hope to warn others to be very cautious before visiting this office. Chiropractic care is wonderful when the doctor is patient, kind and handles your body with care and a horrible experience when the doctor is rough, like my husband and I both experienced today. My husband and I started using Chiropractic care about 18 years ago when our kids were little and have gone mostly on a regular basis ever since. We are HUGE fans of chiropractic adjustments!!! We started using The Joint system almost a year ago now in our travels around the country. We joined as members and have always had great experiences in The Joints. We are currently in the Columbus area and decided to stop in today for an adjustment in the Columbus office. We WON'T Be back! Today was our worst chiropractic adjustment we've ever had in these 18 years and I don't mean one of us but BOTH of us had our worst ever adjustment. Dr. Parish even went ahead and adjusted my neck with me facing up after I told him I don't do well with with an up facing neck adjustment. The adjustment he did to my lower body left me needing to catch my breath before I stood up. He was rough and very much in a hurry and he didn't even care that I couldn't catch my breath in fact he was rather cocky about it. My husband had just as bad of an experience. He didn't take the time to learn about what we needed. I went in today for a wellness visit and I left In pain and with a headache I didn't have when I walked in the door. My husband went in needing some pain relief for a sore shoulder and he left there in way more pain in his shoulder than he started with + with some pain in one of his legs he didn't have. I hope this review saves somebody from a horrible chiropractic adjustment. To say again, we WON'T come back here. read more

I am from out of town and decided to visit this location because my neck was bothering me. The Doc that adjusted me was honestly one of the rudest people I've ever met. Next time I'll suffer through the pain rather than visit this location again. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Parish since 2016 and have eight family members that he also treats. My wife and I have referred many of our friends and co-workers to him thru the years. He has always been the consummate professional, patient, kind, and caring. He has helped all of us tremendously. His treatments are so important to our overall health and wellness, that we never miss a weekly visit. He's the best! read more

If you're military, I highly recommend the Joint. I go to the Columbus location after work and Pooler when I'm visiting family on the weekends. The Join is popular around military installations and they offer a discounted wellness plan for 4 adjustments a month at $50. Definitely the best money saving plan for anyone with high impact job requirements. read more

Several months ago I came in for an adjustment and left with two herniated discs in my neck. I had immidiate muscles spasms and could not move due to the forceful adjustment. After an MRI, several visits to a spinal surgeon, and physical therapy, I now need surgery. I have competed in five Ironmans and now I can't train. Do yourself a favor and go to a chiropractor that will take X-rays and give you proper care. The convenience is not worth the risk. Please learn from my mistake. read more

I come here for quick chiropractic adjustments and have been for several months. I have never waited more than 5 minutes and no appointment is needed. Dr. Parrish is one of the few Chiropractors I have found who can adjust my tight back and it feels amazing. I highly recommend making a regular visit here. read more

My usual chiropractor was not open one day when i got severe neck/back pain that made me unable to move my neck and was so bad that i had tears from the pain so i decided to go to the joint in colga and it was terrible. first of all, i went there with my dad due to not being able to drive from the pain and the chiropractor said that he could not go back with me, which i DID want him to come with me and i consented, but the chiropractor said it was against hippa for some reason when it was no one else back there but us???? After already being upset about the unbearable pain i was in, it was not fun to be told that. When i was on the table, all he did was talk to me about where i was in pain and then after a min of just sitting there, he finally told me that he could not do anything without me having x-rays done. He did add that my hips were unaligned (this was not even my pain area) and did not even try to fix it. Additionally, of course they do not do x-rays in office so i had to drive down the street to get one (which i never did because i decided after i got in my car that i was not even going to bother to go back to that chiropractor). Im not sure of the chiropractors name but i think he lacks some bedside manner with his patients as well as maybe some caring personality. I do not recommend going to that place at all. If youre in the columbus area and are looking for a chiropractor, i know its a little bit of a drive but i recommend dr tammy kaminski at Back to life chiropractic center in lagrange because everyone in her office is very caring and excellent. read more

This place is great. The front desk girls are always kind and courteous. Every chiropractor has been excellent at this location. I highly recommend if you need a quick hassle free adjustment. read more

Can't say enough about this chiropractor! He keeps me in great shape and always educates me on what I need to do to stay healthy. Great all over body adjustments and special attention to ailments when necessary. Thankful for Dr. Parish!! read more

Dr. Parish is the best chiropractor that I've ever been to. He has been the only one that has been able to help me. I started coming to him after having my last baby and was in so much pain I couldn't walk. My whole family comes and he is great with my children! read more

I am in town for airborne school, just finished week two, and after all those PLFs I really needed an adjustment. The Joint is extremely convenient and clean and staff is very friendly. I walked in, filled out out some paperwork and was seen within five minutes. I saw an African American female Doc (I say this to add detail because I can't member her name) and she was awesome. She took time to really figure out what was going on with me. I will definitely be back! read more

I have used chiropractic care my whole life and have been to quite a few different ones due to moving. When we moved here I was looking for a new Dr. to go to, and loved the prices and quick in and out that The Joint offered. The staff in front are great, and the male chiropractor is good. However, I chose to give it one star because of the TERRIBLE female Dr. I have never had a Dr. be so unfriendly and give such a rough adjustment in my life. I tried to be friendly with her, but she honestly didn't say a word back to me and her adjustment was downright brutal. I will NOT be back as I wouldn't dare to go and get her. read more

Great experience here! They didn't want you to pay until after you had seen the doctor and had an adjustment-- which is far different than the last Chiropractor practice I went to that wanted all their money up front!! The Dr walked me through everything he was going to do and did a great job of explaining on charts the cause and effects for my pains and then treatments. He gave me exercises to do at home. If anyone KNOWS they are in really bad shape-- they shouldn't be coming to a Chiropractor. I appreciate a practice that is not going to charge you for a bunch of xrays, etc. and insist you come in once or twice a week. If you are in that bad of shape you probably need to be going somewhere else! The Joint suits my needs perfectly and I thoroughly enjoyed the doctor's professional approach. read more

I was extremely pleased with my first visit with Dr. Parish, and continue to be pleased with his care along with my progress. As a healthcare provider myself, often we tend to be the worse patients. Dr. Parish reviewed my health history, performed a physical exam, and reviewed my MRI results. He found there was no need to order further x-rays, nor MRI's. After consulting with me about his findings, course of care and treatment plan, I received my first adjustment ever! It was awesome, and I received moderate relief quite quickly. I continue to go for treatment once a week, and opted for their monthly Wellness Plan. The Joint makes quality healthcare affordable, and having an experienced treating provider like Dr. Parish adds optimal value to every visit. I'm a lifetime patient! Thank you Dr. Parish! read more

Nick Price is a fantastic chiropractor. One of the best I have ever had. There are others on certain days so you can find the one you like. I love being able to go one a week. No appointment needed and it takes about 5 min. It is also so affordable and no insurance to bother with but you can use you health spending account if you want to. read more

Best chiropractor office I've been to. Staff is great and helpful. For a one time visit everything was easy and best of all they have a military discount. I will definitely recommend this location to my friends visiting Fort Benning. read more

If you go decide to go here call ahead to make sure the MALE chiropractor, I've never had any issue with him He's great. The female chiropractor is another story... I don't know if this was an off day or what but first the receptionist "Millie" offered for me to pay since the female chiropractor was with someone (no big deal I've done it before) but just as I'm finishing paying she sends two people that walked in right as we're finishing up to the back ahead of me...I have to admit I was pretty annoyed at first...I decided to chill out & let it go...I guess the chiropractor had us in order to when we checked in because she ended up having to call me back there ahead of them anyways, next I'd just found out the person I would be seeing was different, had I know this I probably would've passed. She struggled through my entire adjustment (id been here 2 days prior and a few times a week for about a month mind you) I'm very petite & fit so normally I'm in & out, she even had the nerve to ask me "do you stretch?" After an extended...awkward...and uncomfortable visit I left feeling more sore & agitated that when I'd walked in so again....PASS on the female chiropractor with the pixie cut...huge waste read more

I recommend The Joint Chiropractic for those in need of an easy and affordable chiropractic adjustment. They have excellent hours of operation 10-7 Monday- Friday and are even open on Saturday from 10-4! The Joint welcomes all walk-in patients so you do not need an appointment to be seen. The Joint is also very flexible and offers a great Military discount! The doctors are very knowledgeable and listen to the individual patient concerns very well. read more
