Nightmare. After 15+ years seeing Chiropractors I have never had an experience like I had with Brad Yee. I am not one to trash folks or write complaints but this is pretty bad.
This guy is friendly and off the cuff you wouldn't think he was a total quack so let me share my experience with you.
I came in to his office for my first and last visit a few weeks back. I was hoping while in Canada to get some good care before I go back in the field overseas... think again
I have a lower lumbar that goes out from time to time from a drunk driver who crashed and rolled a car with me in the back at 16.. this is some thing I told Dr Yee .
I am young and swim , I take good care of my self. I eat well, I don't use drugs and don't really drink much and am very in tune with my self emotionally and physically...just want to set the stage so you can get the general idea and make an informed decision and learn from my mistake here.
My last chiro was gentle and was also a kite boarder so he knew my sport and knew my body and always prepared me for things when he was making adjustments ESPECIALLY when its a persons neck .
Dr Yee has an empty office for a good reason, he needs to go back to school or simply stop hurting people .
I have tissue damage in my neck from this guy, 100%. After his neck adjustment that I told him I was scared to have I had an instant migraine and was sick to my stomach and was not able to think strait.
He then sombrely asks me " are you on birth control" I said "no" he leaves the room ends session etc. His tone and body language were totally different it was like he knew he did some thing bad.
It wasn't until later when I got home I realized that was a bit weird to ask at the end after I had complained after the harsh neck adjustment ( neck was not the only harsh thing - his whole technique is harsh and is like being in a car accident he is not gentle he rams you ).
When women are on Birth Control they are more prone to stokes. I realize now he asked me that as I had instant reaction to his adjustment to my neck and did some research and was a bit freaked out and thought OK I had a few neck adjustments over the years and they were not like this but maybe I just need to wait it out and purpose to never see this dude again. Apparently neck adjustments can cause strokes ....
An hour later I started to get super sick , I had to stay in bed. I didn't leave bed for 2 days. My neck was so messed up I could barley move. I had CT scan and X-ray at emergency a few days later and was so happy when the dr told me my neck was OK but told me not to let anyone adjust it and I had tissue damage . This was not there before folks nor was the horrible pain .
needless to say I found a new Dr and she fixed all the damage he did but my neck has along way to go from the trauma he caused to it and I have been told I have tissue damage and should never have an adjustment like that again.
I found the new dr by researching heavily online and reading reviews like this one I am writing so people can protect them selves from these places that are clearly not regulated enough . This is coming from some one who has done front line work in conflict zones and refugee camps in 3rd world countries , trust me I have seen bad medical and bad medicine but never had some one mess my body up so much that was supposed to be helping me not hurting me. My neck never ever was like this before and my main issue was my injury in my lower back and he didn't fix that it was also worse.
Like I said after ONE visit with the new awesome Chiro I am already on the mend, she is the real deal but be careful when letting some one adjust you that you don't know I was so stupid not to research him. read more
