As an academic, it's my default nature (my modus operandi ) to do my due diligence, research prior to being seen a specialist. Throughout the course of my own work and findings, (mostly the link between the gut and brain), Dr. Auer met the criteria. LIke many of you, I was tired of being seen by conventional doctors who dispense only placebos in the form of the newest marketed, heavily promoted miracle pill provided by the big huge, juggernaut of big pharama (end rant).This former rout left me to battle my condition for over ten years---nothing improved. I stayed the same while the names of the pills changed. When I first met Dr. Auer, he said, with confidence, that he could "heal" me, have me walking around like a "spring chicken." Mind you, at the time, I couldn't sleep, was on the brink of a nervous breakdown, and was desperate. After a few consultations, we landed on a diet that eradicated possible food allergens that, in turn, would lead to internal inflammation. The term "leaky gut" was thrown around, and like many of you, I was skeptical and cynical since he sells the supplements. It was pricey, but nowhere near the price that I've paid for the past ten years riddled by fear, anxiety, and depression. I was desperate and Dr. Auer was the last hope. Know this before hand: Dr. Auer won't be there to police or monitor you. You have to follow his directions, have discipline, have the will to see your health return. It's not complicated, but it does require one to shift their own paradigm of what you are and what you eat. After three weeks, you will adjust and get acclimated to the new food and miraculously, you will start feeling better, much better. If you're interested in losing weight, you'll drop serious pounds--fast. Again, the healing will work only if you are willing to do the work, I believe. Dr. Auer is the coach and guide, you have to do it yourself. I never took any shortcuts, even as so far as brewing my own bone broth (yes, your first broth will smell and taste like shit). After three months, I not feel remarkably well. I started working out again (I'm 40), and I started running again. When your body feels good and in proper form, it yearns to be active without having to psyche yourself out, pump yourself up. I trimmed the fat and finally getting that coveted six pack; I have muscles and look like I'm in my late twenties. Afterwards, there isn't any post workout fatigue. Finally, I feel alive, confident, and like I tell him when I see him, I really, truly feel as though he has saved my life. My symptoms are gone. The only symptom I have now is too much testosterone and too much energy. I have become that spring chicken he promised and then some. Put in the work, do your research, stay disciplined, and take care of your greatest asset, your health, like your life depends on it because it does, though you need Dr. Auer to awaken and guide you towards this realization. read more

Over the past 30 years, I've had the great fortune to be a patient of a number of terrific chiropractors and alternative health practitioners. But I have to say that Dr. Auer is among the best - if not THE best - I've seen. I value his integrated and holistic approach - incorporating nutritional, structural, and emotional elements. But beyond that, what I've found to be truly unique is that he is practical and meets me where I'm at (vs. pushing a set philosophy or formula on me). He has an amazing way of knowing how much change I'm ready for at any given time and helps me to progress at the rate that I'm able to go in terms of changing my diet, etc. AND he is realistic about the stresses in my fast paced job and challenges of being a working mom. In addition, his adjustments are super and have been critical to getting me back on the road to recovery after an injury. He also has a great network of other folks (life coaches, personal trainers, etc.) that I've used from time to time and have found to be extremely helpful. I initially saw Dr. Auer because my two kids and I were almost constantly on antibiotics for a period of years for sinus infections, strep throat, and ear infections. Since we started following his very doable nutrition recommendations about one year ago, we've had zero infections/antibiotics. Our entire family is in a better place, thanks to Dr. Auer. read more

saw Dr. Auer again today for a tune-up and it helped right away. Before adjusting me he performed thorough muscle tests to verify the exact location of the problems. No guess work. This doc is precise. After each adjustment, he used muscle testing again to verify that the calibration would hold. His practice is not in my neighborhood but a level of care this good is certainly worth driving the extra few miles for. Thanks again! read more

I found Dr. Auer on Yelp and went to him based on the strong reviews posted. I've never seen a holistic doctor so was unsure about what to expect. I came in to see him because I was having digestive and wrist inflammation issues. For the digestive issues, he prescribed some enzymes and other supplements and within a few weeks, I felt back to normal. I also had a food allergy test done and was surprised to learn that I'm allergic to soy, whey, and a few other foods that I consume a lot. After eliminating them from my diet, I at first felt a "bit off" but have since felt better and have lost some weight (nice bonus). My energy levels have improved, too. The wrist issues were trickier, though, and it's something that took more time to fix. I saw a physio and accupuncturist, in addition to Dr. Auer, so can't say which had the greater effect. Dr. Auer provided cold laser therapy on it as well as chiropractic procedures. I am happy to say that my wrist is much better and I plan on keeping it that way through regular stretching. Overall, I think Dr. Auer is very knowledgeable, professional, and personable. I am thankful that I did not need to see him due to serious health issues but in the event that I do, I would go back. The only caveat, and this something I need to get used to being a recent transplant to the US is the higher cost of health care here. My insurance did not cover the bills since he's out of network but at least it's better than going to an in-network doctor only to be given the practice of prescribing drugs and standard procedures (that adds up, too) that likely would not have helped. The rhetorical question is, is your health worth it? read more

In less than 4 months time, Dr. Auer has improved my health immensely. I came to Dr. Auer being generally healthy but with nagging complaints of low grade fatigue, some insomnia, daily afternoon headaches, and vague low grade digestion issues. Those symptoms are now totally gone. My regular general practitioner would offer advice like, "here's a pamphlet about reducing stress", "try walking more often", "being a 40-something mom of 2 kids is demanding", "if the sleep problem continues, maybe we can think about Ambien". What a difference compared with my visit to Dr. Auer. My first visit was what healthcare should look like: professional, comprehensive (not just focused on 1 or 2 issues), and relaxed, with time for coaching and questions. What a difference in approach and what a difference in results! I'm still a bit amazed that these problems were eradicated so quickly. While this type of healthcare is not inexpensive, it's been a great investment. (Seriously, solid deep sleep is SO worth it!) All along I felt like Dr. Auer recommended tests only where the results would materially change my treatment, and pointed out where my GP might be able to run tests through my insurance plan for less out of pocket expense for me. Supplements can be expensive, but they worked. I consider the cost a successful investment in my current quality of life and in my future health I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Auer's practice. read more

After much frustration with specialized medical doctors trying to individually treat my allergies, skin-rash, digestive issues, and shoulder pain with no results my good friend recommended that I book an appointment with Dr Auer. Dr Auer is not your typical "crack your back and come back" chiropractor. He truly takes a comprehensive approach to every patient and tries to see things that are under the surface. Just the intake form alone was such a relief because I knew he was going to look at me as a person and try to understand my total health picture as it relates to my diet and lifestyle. Meeting with Dr Auer completely surpassed my expectations. He has a deep understanding of the human body and how lifestyle impacts every system. He's also great at explaining these complex concepts to someone not familiar with all the professional terms. It is absolutely fascinating and enlightening how he relates nutrition to your overall-wellness. After a few visits, my shoulder pain moved down on the pain scale by 2 points and I had a whole new perspective on how my diet is contributing to my other health problems and a clear road-map on how to eat for better health. If you are frustrated with unnamed conditions and symptoms you cannot explain, see Dr Auer today - the answers are just one visit away! read more

I started seeing Dr. Dan in an emergency situation. I could barely walk, my lower back was so messed up. Having never seen Dr. Dan but having been to 3 other chiropractors for this on going problem I went in with out much hope he could help much. First off he spent an hour with me really getting to know me and then treated me with adjustments and other techniques. I left there feeling amazingly better, better than I thought possible. Dr. Dan is the guy you want to go see if you need a Chiropractor. He combines treatment and nutrition and treats your whole body not just the problem but the source. He's also easy to talk to and explains things so you can understand them. Can't say enough about this guy. I've never had treatments and actually seen results so fast, and felt better so fast. GO SEE DR. DAN. read more

Dan is AWESOME! Not only does my back feel great after he adjusts it, but i feel better mentally after seeing him! Dan works with the mind and body as one and by doing so he has done wonders for me... I have the autoimmune form of hypothyroidism and did not want to get back on pills. Dan, did some great research for me and discovered that I could regulate my thyroid through my eating. Well, I have been doing it for about 9 months and have never felt better! This was truly a life-saving event for me! Dan is gentle, yet firm in his beliefs. he is passionate about his work and always has his clients' best interest in mind. Go see DAN! read more

Highly recommend Doc Auer. Totally agree with most of these reviews. If you're looking for someone to treat the whole person and not just a quick fix adjustment, he's the guy for you. His knowledge in nutrition is exceptional and the supplements he recommends are extremely effective. read more

Dr. Auer is incredible and has been extremely beneficial for me and could honestly say he is a huge reason why I am feeling healthier and more energized. He is really easy to talk too and his prices are affordable and his approach is very tactical. read more

Definitely 5 Stars for Dr. Auer. Dr. Auer came highly recommended by a friend. She felt that Dr. Auer helped to prevent her from having surgery. She has recommended friends and family to him. After 6 months of her telling me that I should go, I made the decision that I would drive over an hour to see this Dr. I am forever grateful. His techniques far exceed any chiropractor that I have been to. The combined Chiropractic, Kinesiology and natural whole health healing is completely amazing. I am looking forward towards Dr. Auer helping me to heal from my injury. I have already referred friends and family too. read more

I've been seen Dr. Auer for some time now. Enough time to know he's exceptionally gifted. Dr. Auer is smart, intelligent, knowledgable, and intuitive. I went to him for both general health care and acute issues (ever micro ripped your QL? no? good for you! but if you do, he's the man to see). What I like about him the most is that he skillfully combines his chiropractic and holistic experience with lab-based data to provide the right personalized care. read more

I came to see Dr Auer for my neck related problem. After the first visit, I came home 70% feeling better and after 2 weeks regularly visits, my nerve tingling running on my left arm disappeared. I am impressed with Dr Auer's treatment. He tested muscles to identify where to treat and realign my spine. One thing I like to suggest is to add some therapy exercises to help patient maintaining and improving during the treatment. I believe that maintaining is an important part of treatment that patient should involve, rather than leaning only on doctor. read more

I'm giving the Doc and his office 5 BIG STARS!!! Over the last 7 years I've been through about 5 general practitioners (MD's), a dozen dermatologist, and many rounds of prescribed "band aid" solutions with a lot of side effects. I've had biopsies, cultures, injections, antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, blood work, screening tests, etc. with no red flags or permanent fixes. I feel like Dr. A. has helped me address and understand the root causes. No other so-called doctor bothered too much or had the time to do anything beyond throwing pharmaceuticals at me. So ... I've lost stubborn weight, feel pretty amazing, and my conditions are dramatically improving. I'm ready to embrace the change! I would like to officially endorse Dr. A. as a very high level holistic doctor, DC, functional medicine practitioner and health mentor! From what I can tell so far he is WAY beyond most highly recommended holistic providers / chiro's, and I've been to many. In my opinion he is also way beyond the "pharmaceutically endorsed" kind of doctors despite their sincerity in wanting to help, amazing backgrounds, educations, and governmental authority. Thanks Dr. Auer! read more

Dr. Auer is amazing! I found him about 2 months ago and I think he's a miracle worker! His approach to my health was pretty impressive. I was a bit doubtful at first but I kicked my own butt by disobeying the doctor's orders. You're always greeted with a smile and this is one of the few places of business that answer their phone 99.9% of the time. This office has given me very high standards... Which perhaps isn't a great thing because I will have to find a dentist, an eye doctor, and a primary care physician... Oh well. Totally worth it! Oh! One more thing. My insurance doesn't cover my visits but I don't even care. He's THAT amazing. read more

I've been to a number of chiropractors and was happy to (randomly) meet Dr. Auer. I only visit 3-4 times a year but I'm loyal and he is my only chiropractor. Last month I brought my son Eric to him as well. read more

I was not in good shape before I met Dr. Auer. I had high blood pressure, insomnia, stiffness neck, and shoulder pain. They troubled me for years. Then I was told that I am pre-diabetic, and it really woke me up. My daughter said she needed to find a doctor to fix my body before it was too late. Dr. Auer has plenty of practical Nutrition knowledge, and he is an experienced Chiropractic. He is just the one we are looking for ! :) At first, Dr. Auer reviewed my blood test and questioned every detail about my medical history, then he gave me some treatments and supplements recommendations. During about 6 months of treatments and a balanced diet, I feel better and better day by day, in many respects. I do not look like a sick person anymore--I feel younger, more energetic, and happier to live life to its fullest. I also did a Food Test and a Detox program with Dr. Auer, they helped me to better understand the importance between food and health, and changed my lifestyle in months. I am so lucky to have met Dr. Auer, and have the chance to accept his modern, innovative treatment. I have never felt better and been in better health. I still regularly see Dr. Auer. I value his advice very much--he is like my health, nutritional, and spiritual advisor. Dr. Auer is strongly committed to his patients and his approach is encouraging and supportive. I can positively say I love my new lifestyle, it gives me a whole new life ! If I can do it, you can too ! :) read more

Dr. Auer is a true professional and a great guy. In just a few visits he was able to correct a pain in my foot that has been with me for about a year. The amazing thing that makes him unique as a chiropractor is he actually works on the MUSCLES! He will figure out which muscles are not working and help to facilitate them to "engage." It's simple, painless, and quick. And I literally feel taller and lighter on my feet after every visit. read more

This review is for Daniel Auer's functional medicine practice only. I had an appointment with him and he recommended I take a stool test. He also diagnosed me with thrush - a yeast infection in my mouth. The test kit was supposed to arrive in a couple of days. I didn't receive it and sent an email asking about it. I was told that the front office person had left and there were issues with the person filling in, but that it would be sent in a couple of days. Then I got a call that they didn't manage to get it in the mail and then D. Auer dropped if off on my doorstep. Not professional. I was told that the front office person was no longer with them and had been replaced. I took the test and sent it in. Then I received another package in the mail. It turned out to be a package for another patient with a form with personal information, a test kits and supplements. This is a serious privacy, not to mention HIPAA violation. I was horrified. I asked Auer for a prepaid mailing label to send it back, but once again, he had to come to my home and pick it up. Seriously? In the meantime, I called the lab that was processing my test to request they send the results directly to me. Nobody ever answers the phone at the lab - Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory. I got a call back was told I had to fill out a form that included personal information, before they would send the results to me. I filled out the form and emailed it back to them. At that time, I noticed on their website that they offer a discount for upfront payment for tests. During my appointment Auer told me that he didn't make any money from lab tests - he just passed that through. However he charged me full list price although I paid upfront. I then contacted him and told him that I would not be back and wanted a credit for the appointment, along with the discount I should have received for the test. I also asked him to destroy all of my medical records. It took 2 weeks, but finally got a check for the appointment plus the $80 I'd been overcharged for the test. Then the test results didn't arrive. I left a message and sent an email to the lab but did not get a return call, email, or the test results. I contacted D. Auer and said that if I thought that the test results would "still be beneficial to my health" that he would forward them. Did he really think that I would not want the results of a $475 test ($395 after the discount)? I then went to a naturopath, which is a certified medical doctor with 4 years of medical school, which covers education on both western and eastern medical approaches. She told me that I did not have thrush (and there was zero yeast in the lab test results), that she had never heard of Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory, (which offers only one test which is odd), and all she knew of D. Auer was his role as a chiropractor. I would strongly encourage anyone looking for a functional medicine practitioner to find a naturopath instead. You want to go to a doctor with real training. Anyone can claim to be a functional medicine practitioner after 5 days of training. Check it out at https://www.functionalmedicine.org/certification_program/About/ read more

I feel very fortunate to have found Dr. Dan. I knew from the very beginning that through working with him, I would finally be able to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Transitioning to that lifestyle is not easy. Many have tried in the past -- including me -- only to revert back to old habits. It's tough, and one needs a focused plan and support to achieve success. Dr. Dan provides the right balance of nutrition and treatment and takes the time to understand what your body needs to heal and become healthy. With Dr. Dan's unyielding support and my own diligence, I have now made that transition, am well on my way to meeting my weight loss goals, and feel happy and fit. I can say with complete confidence, due to Dr. Dan's help and support, I will not only continue on this healthy path for the rest of my life, but also enjoy being on it. read more

I came to see Dr. Auer for symptoms that were wreaking havoc on my overall health and productivity. When I saw dr. Auer, my suffering with chronic pain, fatigue, food intolerances, menstrual, and digestive disorders was at its peak. Dr. Auer took a systematic approach and unearthed the root cause of all the problems, allergies, and auto-immune disorders that were messing me up. I am still working with him and he is helping me heal my body and mind. He is an expert in functional and holistic medicine and I truly endorse his ground-up approach to health and wellness. I am feeling so much better than I did a few months ago. read more

I have been going to see Dr. Auer for about 2.5 years and it has been exponentially better than any other functional medicine doctor or alternative practitioner that I have seen before. I appreciate that Dr. Auer utilizes blood work and lab testing to identify health challenges and also uses them to track progression throughout the course of treatment. He is very transparent about what he is doing and why, while also being flexible about your input and desired treatment approach. The initial consultation is very thorough and after some preliminary testing it was clear that the original reason that I had come in for was a symptom of a much larger systemic problem. I am so grateful that Dr. Auer was able to figure out the source of the problem instead of chasing every symptom that was popping up. It has been exciting (and relieving) to see improvements on both subjective (observed mood and symptoms) and objective (lab test results) measures. While some conditions require a longer period of time to heal, there were some symptoms that literally subsided within the first 3 days of following his protocol. I would highly recommend Dr. Auer and if I can give one piece of advice from my experience so far it would be to follow his recommendations as closely as possible because the benefits are well worth the effort. read more

I went to see Dr Auer about a year ago when I was on the tail end of treatments for cancer. I've always lived a pretty healthy lifestyle, so my diagnosis was a shock, both to me and to all my family and friends. Fortunately, it was detected early and so was treated through surgery and chemotherapy, but during chemo, I did find myself a little nutritionally compromised and so I went to see Dr Auer to get a "jump start" back onto my road to recovery. He treated me both structurally and nutrionally and as a result of following his recommendations, I now feel better than I ever have my whole life. My energy level is higher, my stress level is lower and I have recommended him to many friends and family members. It's so good to know that my body now has the resources to stay healthy, well and feeling great! read more

I have been to Dr. Auer with various sports injuries and autoimmune reactions. He is always able to quickly get my body back in alignment after an injury, without pressuring me to come back on a regular basis like many chiropractors have a habit of doing. I can't see myself going to any other chiropractor after him. He also has a sound holistic/functional medicine practice which provides natural options for treating and curing chronic disease without the side effects that come with the prescriptions the medical doctors are so ready to prescribe me. Its a relief to find a medical practitioner willing to find a cure to the root problem and not just treat a symptom like most medical doctors. read more

First off, Daniel Auer is an amazing man through and through. Just as a person I'm lucky to have met him. Second, He is an extremely skilled, knowledgable, professional Chiropractor. What I find truly amazing though is his Integrative Medicine practice. He works to fully understand your needs and provides you with all the tools you need to change your Self from the inside out. His approach is gentle and rooted in science and experience. He thinks well outside the cookie cutter box of General practitioner M.D.s. I have worked with many Chiropractors over the years but haven't gotten the same immediate AND long lasting relief as I have with Doctor Auer. For reference, I'm an athlete in my 30's, I've had a long standing shoulder injury and chronic tightness through my mid back. He is the only person that can consistently adjust my mid thoracic spine. Anyway, look no further for complete holistic and integrative care. Doctor Auer will set you straight inside and outside and he'll do it with genuine caring. read more

I have been going to see Dr. Auer for about 2.5 months and when I met him I had no clue what functional medicine doctor was or what he could do for me. I only heard him say that he could help me and that is all i needed to move forward. I was about to leave the country and try to find help somewhere. I appreciate that Dr. Auer utilized extensive blood work and lab testing to identify health challenges and also uses them to track progression throughout the course of treatment. He is very transparent about what he is doing and why, while also being flexible about your input and desired treatment approach. In other words he listens to you and then helps you!!! It has been exciting (and relieving) to see and feel improvements to my life and body. Clearly I would not be alive today if I had not met Dr. Auer. . While some conditions require a longer period of time to heal, there were some symptoms that literally subsided within the first weel of following his protocol. I would highly recommend Dr. Auer and if I can give one piece of advice from my experience so far it would be to follow his recommendations as closely as possible because the benefits are well worth the effort. Here is what choice I was given feel good or feel bad!! You choose. Well Folks I choose Dr. Auer and everything he has done for me and that has kept me alive to live my life to it's fullest. That was not in my cards before him!!! I can't thank Dr. Auer enough but to tell others that he is a must see if you are not in the best of health and even then you should see him!!!! read more

I went to this chiro. intially because of all the good reviews. He does know a lot about nutrition and overall health. and was able to guide me in the right direction for better nutrition, but if you have a real need for a good chiro and have reasons other than "nutrition" for back problems then maybe you should think twice. He loads you up with expensive supplements,does some muscle testing..but dont feel like I was adjusted they way I needed, and know I have more serious back problems that are not casued by bad nutrition. He is holistic and good bedside manner, but I need a veteran chiro that can move some bones and make them stay for $80 a visit. read more

I am so thankful that a friend referred me to Dr. Auer! He is now my chiropractor for life. Not only is he a great chiropractor, it's easy to get appointments that fit my schedule, and his office staff is wonderful. He is the whole package! He also is knowledgeable on nutrition and diet. Dr. Auer is the BEST! read more

I've visited Dr Auer in Aug/2012, could barely walk because of lower back pain and arthritis. In 3 visits I was feeling good again. Dr is not just a Chiropractor, but also a holistic Dr. He looked at my diet and recommended some changes. Those changes helped reduce pain and also helped me lose some pounds. Dr Auer also provides ultra sound and laser heat treatments which provided immediate inflammation reduction. His holistic approach helps achieve results quicker. Dr Auer is an excellent Chiropractor as well. He will look at your alignment, neck, back, legs, etc, test the muscles that are not responding well on back and legs and help align and re-activate your muscles. He is definitely the best Chiropractor I've seen so far. read more
