Dr. Ewing is not a holistic healer/person. He is a businessman. I sat patiently through his 40 minute podcast, where he informed people that they could die one day if they didn't repeatedly have their spines adjusted. After the scare-tactic ladened pitch, I was taken to a room with the doctor and shown copies of my Xrays. Dr. Ewing informed me that my spine was misaligned, and that I might die one day if it wasn't fixed. No kidding! Paging Dr. Brainbuster!!!
The plans for my treatment were around $1800 over 3 months to cure my terrible spine!.. until I lift something heavy or turn the wrong way at work again. I decided to go for the occasional adjustment instead, even though "that's not going to fix the problem".
Then I was put on a table and left for about 10 minutes until my lower back just went out and I slowly got to my feet. Dr. Ewing refused then to give me an adjustment because I was in pain. Yeah. He told me that we needed to wait until I wasn't in pain. I told him I wouldn't be scheduling a later appointment for when I was "feeling better". Dr. Ewing told me "hey man it's cool!"
It is not cool. Denying a chiropractic patient treatment because they're in pain is the opposite of cool. Learn how to help people who are suffering, Dr. Ewing. Listen to them. Treat them the way that a doctor who has 5 completely identical chiropractor certificates hanging in his podcast room should. But better. Be better!
The chiropractor that I went to for over 10 years passed away a while ago. He didn't have an Xray machine or a podcast room. But he listened, he cared, and he was good at helping and healing people!
He was better.
RIP Dr. Kovar, a true healer. read more
