Carpenter, Dr. Zandall

Background: I herniated 3 disks and fractured 2 vertebrae in an accident 20+ years ago and seek treatment when I can't clear a flareup via heat, Thumper or Traumeel. // I'd been to two other chiro docs in town who used the drop table, which was too jarring. I went by Dr. C's office to find no drop table used. Good. Very nice practice. Price per visit: $65, which is $25 to $40 more than I'd previously been charged by other practices. // I've had two appointments, 1st cleared the problem, 2nd did not. He said he could not get the lower back into place, so I'm trying to decide whether to return. // The office is only open 3 to 3.5 days per week, so scheduling can be a challenge.

Best chiropractor i've seen on 3 continents - and i've seen a lot of chiropractors in my life. I was in a pain that kept me awake all night - neck & shoulder pain and even though I was not a patient of Dr. Carpenter, he graciously agreed to see me within 15 minutes of my call. I have seen my fair share of chiropractors in Albuquerque, Europe and even Australia, since I was in a bad car accident some years back, but by far, Dr Carpenter is the best chiropractor I have ever encountered. I will continue seeing him as a chiropractor and also as a physical therapist ( his second specialty).

Dr. Carpenter is by far the best Chiropractor that I have been to. He listens, takes his time, does not rush, and his appointment hours are excellent. Some Chiropractors do not work on anything but your back. He works on my IT bands and feet whenever needed. He has worked previously as a personal trainer and massage therapist. I would highly recommend him to anyone who exercises, his knowledge of sports related injuries or just muscle soreness is excellent.

I have been using him for about four years. He tells me clearly what the issue is along with the causes and the necessary adjustments. He asks for my permission before doing anything and walks me through the treatment in detail. He saves me time, money and gets me well.
