5 stars for a beyond amazing experience! I have been looking for a good chiropractor for such a long time. I need someone I can trust and I think I found her :) Dr. Odell is very attentive to my needs. On top of this, the staff here is just out of this world. They couldn't have been more friendlier and helpful. I had to get their names so I could include them in this review since they gave me memorable service. Erica, Vanessa and Beverly just made my day; they were so kind and made me feel completely comfortable. I definitely recommend everyone to come to this office. read more

Dr. Whalen is one of the best doctors I have ever been to. He is obviously an expert and knows how the neck and spine affect the rest of the body, and can explain it all to me so that I understand it. I have gone to other doctors for my neck and back injury, and Dr. Whalen is the first one to actually make progress. I have the added stress of this being a workers' comp claim, and Dr. Whalen and his staff have made the process so much easier for me. He and his staff actually care about me and my health, and I always feel like they are personally vested in seeing me to recovery. I live about 15-20 minutes away from his office, but it is definitely worth it. And he gets you in and out of the office quickly, which is really important to me since I'm still trying to work while recovering from this injury. I will not go to another chiropractor again! If you're looking for a chiropractor, stop looking and call Dr. Whalen to schedule an appointment; you won't regret it! read more

I go to Dr. Tod Polk in this office, he helped me out so much with migraine's and back pain! The employees are also very knowledgeable about the products they sell. read more

Well, where do I start? First, I would like to say that before I went to Dr. Whalen, I was EXTREMELY skeptical about whether or not a chiropractor would fix what was wrong with me. I got into a car accident at work (not my fault) and because of it, I was injured. My lower back hurt really bad, as well as my shoulder blade, and my headaches increased. My lawyer informed me that in order to heal, I needed to see a chiropractor and suggested Dr. Whalen. When I first went into his office, I was scared. Like crying scared because I was afraid of him hurting me because of what I read on the internet. (Screw you internet horror stories.) After I explained why I was upset, instead of looking at me crazy Dr. Whalen calmly explained what was wrong and did his first adjustment. I started crying. But not because of pain. Because I immediately felt better than I did before walking in their door. Before he did his adjustments on me, I could not even pick up my two year old son. And he is a momma's boy and couldn't understand why, so it was definitely a problem. It has now been over 3 months, and I can do almost everything I did before without pain. If I exceed my limit I start to feel pain but it is in NO way anywhere as bad as it used to be. As for their office staff, they have been nothing but kind and patient with me. They have welcomed my children in when I could not find a sitter, listened to them whine because they don't want to be there, and dealt with my missed appointments from time to time (Sorry Cheri. :] ) but I have never had any issues with any of them. I would honestly rate them 5 stars for making my pain go away. If I ever go to a chiropractor again, which I probably will on occasion, it will be here. Thank you Dr. Whalen! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Whalen for 10 years now due to lower back problems & headaches caused by a car accident 22 years ago. He's very attentive and knowledgeable. I'm usually good to go after a few adjustments. Dr. Whalen is my goto chiropractor and is conveniently located in a low traffic area. When asked by friends for a chiropractor, I always recommend DR. WHALEN! read more

Love Dr Whalen - his treatment helps my headaches so much! Getting an appt is easy and his staff is great to work with. They also offer massage which is also fabulous read more

Dr. Whalen is fantastic!!!! I went to his office to start a preventative program as my back has a tendency to go out randomly. I was assessed adjusted and given a set of clear instructions with a plan to reevaluate as the process went on. It has been fantastic working with Dr W! I have been to chiropractors that adjust you and insist on you coming back indefinitely. That is not the game plan at Whalen Chiropractic. He got me better, brought my attention to bad habits and helped me create good ones. I highly recommend you see him if you have the misfortune of back pain. read more

Great location and service with plenty of parking. Dr Polk is hilarious and knows what he is talking about. Really gets to know your problem areas and makes you feel the best. read more

Doctor Whelan has a mellow, kind demeanor, his staff is nice, and he gets the job done. I've been to other chiropractors in the county, and I drive all the way out to Santee to go see him because I know I'll have a pleasant experience and get relief. He also explains what is wrong on the skeleton in his office, so I have a clear visual picture of what was messed up. I usually only go about 5 visits or less and the issue is resolved. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Whalen since being hit in a car accident about 4 1/2 months ago in pretty bad shape. I am so impressed and incredibly appreciative of his tentative care, his staff and all their care and time they've put into helping me feel better. I recommend them 100% and I'm feeling SO much better! I will be recommending them to anyone in need of chiropractic care and will be coming back to them for years and years to come when needing treatment. Thank you Dr. Whalen, I am so thankful for all your help! read more

I met Dr. Whalen several years ago after a car accident. Without Dr. Whalen's office I'd probably still be crippled mess. Dr. Whalen's knows what he is doing. Thank you. read more

Dr Polk is the absolute best! Not only are the adjustments great but he takes his time, and does muscle work if you need it. Very knowledgeable chiropractor. I send all my clients here! read more

I was looking for a good chiropractor that took my insurance. I decided to check out Yelp and found Dr. Whalen. I am so glad I did, because he is amazing! The office staff were warm and welcoming and Dr. Whalen was wonderful! He did a thorough exam and got to the root of the problems I have been having for a while.He explained everything completely and put me at ease immediately! It's also so convenient to where I live! I would recommend Dr. Whalen to anyone who is looking for a great chiropractor! read more

Dr Odell has been great! I'm always able to get an appointment at a convenient time and the staff is so nice. I recommend Dr Odell to everyone I know! She's caring and is able to explain things to me in a way that's easy to understand. She really cares about her patients. I've been seeing her for sciatic pain and have not had any pain since my first appointment. read more

I have suffered from chronic back pain for 10+ years. I went to every doctor under the sun and had many x-rays and MRI's but nothing would help relieve the pain of my lower back. Over the years I spent hundreds of dollars on physical therapy appointments and other doctor appointments. In the end I was always referred to pain management because they could find anything wrong. I was not fond of the idea of being on pain medicine every day so I just suffered and dealt with the pain. After having my son in 2010 my back pain went from a 7 to a 10 (on a scale from 1-10). I was so fed up with not knowing why my back hurt and no one helping me I decided to go to the chiropractor. I did research for chiropractors in my area and Dr. Whalen was reputable and close to home. After the first 10 minutes with Dr. Whalen he could tell that I was not aligned (one leg was off by almost an inch). It only took about 6 weeks (one visit per week) for my back to start feeling great. I went from a pain level of 10 down to a 2 within a month. Now I only have to go once a month for preventative 'maintenance'. I do go more often if I am having problems with migraines. The Dr. Whalen and the office staff are very friendly and always eager to help. I would recommend Dr. Whalen to everyone. Thank you Dr. Whalen! ~Danielle Roth read more

After years of bring nervous to go to the chiropractor I finally went and was more than pleasantly surprised. Dr. Whalen is amazing and consistently going has decreased my migraine headaches by almost 100%. If you are looking for a good chiropractor look no further he is the BEST! read more

This is a post for my girlfriend. She was in major lower back pain and had to lay on heating pads every night . She finally broke down and went to see Dr Whalen he was recommended by a coworker and I . It took 5 visits and her back was fixed no more pain . The appointments were easy to make and they got her in right away . I would recommend this chiropractic. read more

It has been years since I've been to a chiropractor but a friend recommended this place so I figured why not? They have a couple doctors working here and I ended up getting Dr. Polk. He is very professional, he really takes his time with you, and I always get the feeling that he genuinely cares about his patients. My 7 year old son started going to Dr. Polk just recently. At first my son was a little apprehensive about getting adjusted (mainly because it was something different for him) but now he looks forward to it and asks me when he gets to go again. Dr. Polk does a good job working with kids! read more

I had been experiencing back pain for about 2 years and finally could not stand the pain any longer so decided to see Dr. Whalen and I could not be more pleased with my experience! I was reluctant at first because I was afraid it might cause me more pain if I ever saw a chiropractor, but let me tell you, Dr. Whalen was so friendly and professional and made me feel right at ease from the moment I walked in the door! His entire staff including the friendly receptionists have made this process smoother than I ever expected and I cannot say enough good things about this office!! I am so glad I chose to put my fears aside and I finally am starting to feel relief from my back pain due to Dr. Whalen's care and I highly recommend this office!!! Thank you Whalen Chiropractic!! read more

Dr. Whalen is a gifted chiropractor. I've been seeing him mostly for lower back pain for many years with good results. I'm not a fan of the supplement industry though so I'm very wary of some of the other items he has tried to sell me in the past. The one exception is the Take Shape For Life program. He helped me get on it and it has worked miracles thus far. In less than a week and a half I've lost nearly 15 pounds and there is plenty of follow-up support to try to keep the weight off this time. read more

We have been seeing Dr. Polk and Dr. Whalen for the past 2 1/2 years. They have been great throughout my pregnancy and beyond.

I LOVE Dr. Polk. For a year I tried to get help with TMJ. After being sent from this to that doctor my daughter talked me into going to Dr. Polk. BEST thing I've ever done. Before I could barely chew food. My jaw would lock shut on one side and the disc get stuck on the other. My jaw was in a constant state of dislocation, according to the MRI. I would wake up in at night in pain, even sleeping with a night guard. After just 2 weeks there was a HUGE difference. My teeth didn't touch in the back before and now they do. I don't click and pop anymore and i can EAT food. Just amazing. I didn't think it would get better so fast. I totally recommend him!!!! I don't know what I would have done. read more

I'm glad that I found this place! I had been experiencing neck pain and needed some help. I have been getting adjustments from Dr. Whalen and my neck pain is now gone. I'm so happy and relieved that my body responded to the adjustments quickly. Dr. Whalen, as well as the rest of the staff, are very nice and professional. I would highly recommended this place and will continue to come back. read more

My husband and I were referred to Dr. Whalen by a friend who had nothing to say but how wonderful his services were and he was right. Not only is he a. wonderful and caring doctor but his staff is professional with a sense of humor. We both highly recommend Dr. Whalen. read more

After my daughter was born, an old snowboarding injury made itself known in the form of chronic lower back pain. Not to mention all the stress and strain that come with caring for a newborn. I have been treating with Dr. Whalen since June 2011 and he really knows what he is doing. I was nervous in the beginning because I only had one prior experience with Chiropractic theraphy after a car accident years ago, which resulted in several painful days after that one visit. I have not once experienced pain or intense soreness after Dr. Whalen's treatments. He listens to you and puts his experience to the test to make sure you leave feeling good. While my grandfather was visiting this spring he went to see Dr. Whalen 3 times for a bad back, and felt great afterwards. This speaks volumes for a 76 year old man who receives injections for pain. I would recommend Dr. Whalen for anyone who needs experience, relief and comfort. read more

Dr. Whalen and his staff are awesome. They are caring, friendly and attentive. Thank you to Dr. Whalen and his staff.

Dr Whalen was highly recommended by a family member. In just a month and a half I have noticed a big difference. I am feeling much better! Dr Whalen has been great in explaining my injury & how I can help strengthen, showing me exercises that will help along with his adjustments. read more

At Whalen Chiropractic I see Dr Polk. He is the best!! I have used a couple of other Chiropractors since my last one retired and now that I have found Dr. Polk. I will not have to continue to look anymore. He is do gentle, caring and personable. I would recommend him to anyone. It is hard to find a Chiropractor who is gentle and caring. read more

My whole family has been using Dr. Whalen for over 20 years. He has been a Godsent to all of us. He has diagnosed problems that my primary care physician couldn't. I have referred him to many of my family and friends. He is truly a miracle worker. I would give him 10 stars if I could!! read more

Dr. Whalen is such an amazing doctor. I was in an accident and was referred to Dr. whalen. Thank god I found this man. For almost 3 weeks I was in unbearable pain and doped up on pain meds and steroids. I saw him for the first time and I was able to sleep that night! Although I still have a lot of work to do to be normal I feel Dr.Whalen has given me hope that I won't be hurting forever. Also the staff was soo sweet on phone and in person so I am not sure about other reviews because everyone has been so kind to me. read more
