"I told Dr. Szafranski that I so love that I finally found the practice that I like, trust, can rely on to listen to my needs, and make me feel like I matter not just the next one in the office. But the number one reason is Dr. S's professional way of treatment using his exceptional expertise and unique way of communicating with patients. He inspires relaxed communication and trust. He identified problems and prescribed solutions to Issues that I have suffered with for years. In addition, he embraces alternative methods if it can help the patient: chiropractic, acupuncture, dietitians etc. I'm a fan and totally recommend his practice to anyone where the subject comes up."
