"I went to my family doctor, my rheumatologist and to a hand surgeon to see what could be done with my right hand, which looked distorted since my thumb was going to the inside (palm) of my hand...and I then was diagnosed with trigger finger. I've heard about acupuncture and how it relieves pain, so I decided to go and maybe get my thumb back to normal. I found Dr. Elizabeth Engel (a referral closer to home) and she not only fixed my trigger finger so that my thumb moves without a click, but she also remedied my osteoarthritic joint that made my thumb go inside my palm. It's not 100%, but it's 90% better now and no surgery! Dr. Engel is a "miracle worker" and I am so happy that I had her for my doctor!"

"Is it Dr. Engel or Dr. Angel? About four years ago I was in pain and I decided to try a chiropractor even though I had never been to one before. I didn't know what to expect. Dr. Engel did a very thorough evaluation of my overall health, my diet, my health history and my spinal health. It did take a while, but...there was an end in sight. I was going for longer periods of time pain-free. That might have been the end of my story, but other events kept me in contact with Dr. Engel. I had two other problems. By that time I knew who I could trust to give my 100% of her skill and care. In both cases she was completely successful in restoring my range of motion in my arm (rotator cuff) and knee (torn meniscus surgery). I am a very active 59 year old. Several times in the last four years "Dr. Angel" helped me to keep the life I love."

"When I met Dr. Engel, I merely went to see if she could bring me some relief for my chronic back pain (which was completely restricting my physical activity). During the course of our first visit, I mentioned that I had been diagnosed with an auto-immune disease that was being treated with large doses of steroids and other drugs. One of the other symptoms of my auto-immune disease, in addition to the back and joint pain, was constant sores (10-12 at a time) in my mouth.
Dr. Engel suggested that I take a simple test (at minimal cost) to see if she could detect any issues that may be exacerbating the auto-immune problem. Incredibly, the end result was that with some diet changes, and the addition of a few supplements that are closely monitored by Dr. Engel, I am steroid free and take no more prescription drugs!
I still have an auto-immune disease, but today I suffer very minor symptoms. I have resumed playing golf - pain free - for the first time in years! I feel like a different person."

"It was almost a year ago when I met Dr. Engel. I was suffering from horrible back pain, as well as, stomach trouble. After speaking with her for a bit I set up an appointment. I was feeling very good about it. I had been seeing doctors, but I felt as if they never really understood what I was going through. After a year of doctor visits and no relief you really start to lose hope. My back pain and stomach aches were a constant for me and there were days I couldn't and didn't want to get up. I never understood how much Dr. Engel would change my life and I am so grateful to her. We discovered I had food sensitivities. After some back adjustments, a diet change and natural supplements within a week I was feeling like a whole new person. I remember waking up one morning and saying 'Oh my god I don't have a stomach ache!' I couldn't believe it.
Dr. Engel is a wonderful doctor. She really listens and cares and understands. I now understand how to control my symptoms and can enjoy my life. I recommend to see Dr. Engel if you are having any troubles with your back or stomach. She is absolutely wonderful. I still see her once a month for adjustments.
