I stop by DMV in order to renew my CDL A. They told me that I will need a DOT certificate. So I did a quick search on line and found out Southside Chiropractor Car Injury Clinic was the place to go. Dr. Matthew let me in on a busy day which I’m very greatfull for!!

I honestly really appreciate the staff and services at this place. I came in with severe neck and back pain and was barely able to hold my own head up. I had deep burning pain in my neck and shoulder area and nerve pain down my legs. I won’t say I’m cured because I’m doing ongoing treatment but I’m definitely much better off than I was coming in. My mobility has increased and a lot of the effects from the car accident have been helped. The atmosphere is very calming/soothing and the staff are very attentive. Dr. Lowery is everything you’d want your chiropractor or be. He’s empathetic, knowledgeable, and shows he cares about your progress. I appreciate them being very flexible with my schedule as well. Kudos to the Dr and staff at this place, thank you for all you’ve done so far!!
