Wonderful clinic and wonderful results. All of the staff is friendly and welcoming. I have been having lower back problems and I decided to go into the clinic; it's been a couple of months, and I haven't regretted one second. Dr. William Giancoulas is wonderful. He targets all areas which might be contributing to my pain, such as the hip area. He provided me with helpful exercises and stretches to do on my own. Most importantly, he explains the reasons for everything he does.

Excellent clinic and great results! I have been going to Milner Chiropractic for many years for both chiropractic care and registered massage therapy. Excellent staff, very accommodating of schedules, great flexible hours, and amazing service. Dr. Alex Hawkins has done an excellent job especially following in the footsteps of Dr. Donna Schoales. He… listens closely to your comments about pain and discomfort and then works to relieve them by focusing on their potential sources. He also will show you exercises to do at home to help keep you on the healing track. He has effectively helped me

Dr. Hawkins has been beyond helpful! I tend to gain some odd injuries that no one else can seem to help me with, and he's able to assess, and articulate what needs to be in place for me to get better. He has thoroughly impressed me with his dedication to not only treatment, but education to prevent further injury.

When I arrived I could barely walk and my back was leaning to one side. Dr. Linda Thomas was able to get rid of the pain in my step and straightened my back. I was able to walk out with no problem and have felt great ever since. I will be recommending Milner Chiropractic Clinic to anyone who needs a chiropractor.
