Testimonials

I'm taking stock of the experiences I've had with 6 health practitioners I've seen this week. For the combination of seeing me, respecting my body's story, helping me feel better, and not making me feel like the road to Wellness is paved with money bled from my pocket ... you win the prize as most helpful. Way to go!

I've been seeing all sorts of different specialists through the years since a car accident in '96.  Dr.Z is magic!  He has so many tools in his tool kit to support healing.  Hands down the best all around practitioner.

What I like about Dr. Sam is that he is thorough in reviewing your health and well-being and good at explaining chiropractic: letting you know exactly what is going on in your body, how he is going to address it, and why he thinks this procedure is best for you. I also love his passionate enthusiasm towards his work; I often leave his office feeling invigorated. Best of all, if you are inclined to learn, he can give you an in-depth chiropractic lesson during your appointment—enriching both the body and mind. Overall, I strongly recommend Dr. Sam. Whether one is sick or healthy, anyone can benefit from his care.

While visiting Oakland from my home in Georgia I followed my son’s recommendation and sought Chiropractic treatment from Dr. Z for four weeks, a total of fifteen sessions. I experienced significant improvement with my chronic sinus infection, fatigue, knee pain, and lower back pain. I always felt a little better after each visit and the cumulative effect was wonderful.

I have been to chiropractors in the past, but I have found something unique in Dr. Z.  As he's working on me, he has a way of communicating not only what HE is doing, but what I can do to produce results.  We collaborate on the work.  And because of this collaboration, I leave him with a sense of how I can continue on my own between our sessions.

I started seeing Dr. Z after I was diagnosed with cerebellar tonsilar ectopia last year. I was experiencing severe constant headaches, nausea, muscle weakness and variable muscle spasms, multiple hypersensitivities to smell, sound, light, noise etc, blurry vision, mental fogginess including memory and concentration difficulties and more. After just a week or two of Dr. Z's care, I was able to go for a short jog (I hadn't been able to do my normal morning runs in about 4 months because of muscle weakness and pain). I saw Dr. Z for several months before I moved out of town, and I miss him so much! Under his care, I consistently had repeat experiences of "wow, I never thought I'd regain this much function and feel this great!" It's now been 6 months since Dr. Z took care of me, and a lot of the difficulties I was having before are still better; his work has resulted in permanent changes for the better in my system. I would highly recommend Dr. Z to my loved ones, and really to anyone! He has incredible insight for individualized care, coupled with attention to the details above and beyond most doctors I know. He is dedicated to constantly renewing his education in scientific foundations, developing the finesse and specificity of an extraordinary chiropractor, and caring for each patient as a whole person. Dr. Z is a phenomenal healer, and a treasure to the community.
