Oh Dr Reeves. What unique practice you are in! I do wish I had sought out your care- years earlier. This note might be too long for some, but so many things have changed for me since beginning treatment. It is a rare event for a person to go to a Dr’s office and feel so very cared for. The office staff has the same response of concern and listening, because they are treating you as a whole person. I will tell the basics for why I went to Dr Reeves in the first place. There are so many stories of how this has changed my life as a wife, mom, sister, grandmother and friend. When I arrived at Dr Reeves office, for my first exam, he took the time to just sit and listen to my history (it took probably an hour) he typed as I spoke so he would have all the information accurately! My whole body hurt most of the time. I couldn’t turn my neck left to right without pain, and walking, up and down stairs, housekeeping, all of it hurt. I was seeing a Neurology Dr and having Epidural shots in my neck because I could not turn my head to the right or left more than an inch. The epidural shots were effective for about two weeks and then all the stiffness returned. The insurance co-pay on this treatment was about $500, so, pretty expensive for two weeks of comfort. I went to see Dr Reeves because the Neurology Dr. Whom had done my epidural treatments suggested I find a good neck surgeon- for a fusion! I did not want a neck fusion. So a good friend recommended I see Dr Reeves. At the time I arrived at his office I was seeing many different Drs. Yes. I had talked to my General Practitioner to get names of specific Drs for many different things. I was seeing a Hand Surgeon for my thumbs which were numb much of the time, and I had shooting pain up my forearms. I figured I needed surgery for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. (Self diagnosis!). I used to garden quite a bit— plant flowers, bushes, pull weeds, all the fun gardening things, all of that stopped. I was seeing an Orthopedic Dr for knee pain, I got new orthotics for my shoes, just to try something… anything, for relief from the dull ache of walking. I had a swollen ankle that had not healed after several sprains. My right ankle area looked like a puff of fluid and skin,- the ankle bone was barely visible because the swelling had not gone down, even a year later. I said to myself, “well, sprains take a long time to heal”. I saw an Ankle Surgeon that was willing to do surgery on my ankle and remove half of my normal ligament and scrape out all the damaged tissue. I did not have the surgery, and now, since seeing Dr Reeves, my ankle looks and acts like it did when I was 20 years younger. I have been seeing Dr Reeves for over 9 years. The first year, I saw him as often as I could for shots (whole body treatment because I had so many areas that needed treatment, it was more efficient to get treated all at once). After that year, I could space out my visits and get treated for specific areas, maybe once a year. Now I have the luxury of walking, stairs, household chores, and generally living with very little pain- I am getting older so I’m bound to have some aches- but if an area of my body starts showing signs of distress, I make an appointment with Dr Reeves to catch it early. Dr Reeves, you have changed my life in so many ways. Thank you for your persistence in the area of Prolotherapy. I really hate to think of where I would be without it. I'm so Grateful, Ruth Dwyer

Dr Reeves and his staff are very professional and compassionate. Dr Reeves takes time to listen to the whole patient history and talk through his impression of what the problem is stemming from. He come highly recommended by some of the other medical professionals I have seen. After getting 3 sets of Prolo/PIT injections, I have seen improvements in issues like trigger points, pain due to tendon and ligament damage from improper healing (scar tissue), pain from fascia compressing nerves etc. all resulting from an auto accident.

Dr. Reeves is a talented and unique doctor to who I give the highest recommendations. I have struggled with pelvic and hip pain, specifically nerve tension and pain for over 2 years. My injuries potentially stem from an unsuccessful hip labrum tear/impingement removal surgery (traction specifically within surgery may have caused some damage) which provoked all the nerves in my pelvic to go into chaos. My sacral, sciatic, pudendal, perineal, and obturator nerves have been fighting against me. All of this dysfunction affects my muscles, alignment, and general nervous system function. I found Dr. Reeves a little over a year ago and am at least 50% better because of his treatments today. I wish I found him at the onset of my symptoms, but I am blessed to have him on my team now. Healing nerve damage/pain is a long journey, and a very tough one. Not many doctors are trained to understand, diagnose, and heal injuries such as mine. I have seen about 12+ different “specialists” over my journey and had to be an advocate for my health. Once I consulted with Dr. Reeves, I knew I found another advocate for my healing journey. He has a gift to help your body heal and he has absolutely no ulterior motives to his practice. In addition, he is extremely intelligent and researched, however also extremely humbled and driven by God's power. Also, don’t shy away because the procedure being a high numbered injection treatment. Dr. Reeves and his staff make you very comfortable. I have always been scared of needles, but now I look forward to getting my treatments. If you are struggling with chronic pain, know there is hope. Dr. Reeves has given me hope and I feel incredibly blessed to have him as a doctor.
