Gonstead Chiropractic & Wellness ATX

I have been seeing Dr. Richard for more than 15 years. In 2007, a spinal surgeon said the only relief he could offer me for an injury ten years earlier (for which I had a successful surgery) was to fuse several vertebrae. He discouraged that as a solution and recommended I do what I could to avoid that surgery as long as possible. I have been seeing Dr. Richard since then, and not only have I not needed that fusion, my back pain remains in good control without the need for pain medication. I highly recommend him and his entire staff!

I'm more and more impressed with Dr Richard each visit. He understands how my body functions and responds and provides carefully considered treatment and guidance. And I can tell he does the same for everyone, always with an upbeat and patient -focused approach. That's what I really appreciate --not just the great help I get but the fact that he gives the same level of care to everyone. I give the highest recommendation, Dr Richard is super dedicated and nonstop pours tons of effort into getting us better!

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Richard and his staff! His staff is incredibly friendly and inviting. I’ve even had conversations with them in passing when they aren’t super busy and they give off the vibe that they enjoy talking to all the patients which definitely helps you to feel welcomed and at ease before you get your adjustment. As far as Dr. Richard goes, even when he is very busy he takes the time to listen to his patients and also have friendly conversation with you. It’s very easy to tell that he views each of his patients as individual people not patient numbers. His technique is also excellent! I’ve been going to him for several years now and he’s always looking to better serve his patients. Even though I personally usually have the same issues that crop up repeatedly, over the span of several months at a time, he has come up with new techniques to help me have a better adjustment. I really appreciate that because it shows that he isn’t just taking a copy and paste approach but he’s constantly trying to think of how to get each of his patients the best adjustment possible. I highly recommend going to see him if you have any chiropractic need!

Dr. Richard is THE BEST! He’s very friendly and thorough and always listens. He always has good advice and gives you the perfect adjustments you never knew you needed. Since going to him on the regular, neck pain is gone and energy and sleep are so much better. The knowledge he has about the spine and all the nerves and hormones that are affected by everything is mind blowing! Staff are also very sweet and friendly too! Can’t recommend this place enough!
