As a gymnast on the 1968 & 1972 Olympic teams, I was invited by a UCLA coach to enter a college invitational two years ago. As a member of the alumni team, I competed with gymnasts in their twenties. Before the competition I sought Gary's help. I credit him with releasing the stiffness in my body so that, at 42 and 43 years of age, I was able to compete successfully in elite-level gymnastics at two college invitationals.

Gary Mitchell is the best chiropractor I have EVER visited.  He is very skilled and knowledgeable.  The first time I went to see him I was scared and he was SO patient and kind with me.  I was in so much pain I could barely walk and after a few treatments Gary had me back to normal!  His office staff is also very kind and flexible, Joan will help with everything from appointment times to parking places, and she always brightens your day.  I look forward to my visits in this office, because I always leave feeling better and more relaxed.  Gary and his staff truly appreciate each patient, and do everything they can to make you feel better.

Dr. Mitchell's knowledge of the human body and his skilled adjustments succeeded in relieving my neck pain and headaches where medication has failed.

Gary Mitchell is simply the best chiropractor I have gone to.  He not only has vast knowledge in his field (his mother was also a chiropractor), he is amazingly intuitive about exactly what parts of your body needs healing and has a number of techniques at his disposal to relieve pain and tension.  He takes his time to make sure that your issues are addressed.  I've known him over 25 years, and I don't think you can find a finer person or health practitioner in his field.

When my surgeon recommended surgery for my neck, shoulder, elbow, and wrist, I decided to try chiropractic first. After four sessions with Dr. Mitchell, I returned to the surgeon for a check-up. She gave me a clean bill of health and told me surgery was not necessary!

If you are looking for a chiropractor - I cannot recommend Gary Mitchell more highly.  I have been seeing Gary for several years and he has been a tremendous asset to me.  In an appointment with Gary, you really feel well cared for as he is never rushed and you always feel like you have his full attention.  Unlike some chiropractors that I have seen in the past that just quickly adjust you and move on to the next patient, Gary really takes his time and really throughally adjusts and checks everything before completing the treatment.  I feel very fortunate to have Gary as my chiropractor.

I have been a patient of Dr. Mitchell's since 1983; that SHOULD say it all!  He has helped me to "keep moving" and "stay active" for all of these years.  I am an athlete, and now a dancer.  I was a caterer for 15 years and lifted heavy things for a living.  After I broke my femur and ended up with a metal hip, he helped me through that as well.  I was skiing again in 8 months.He is an excellent Chiropractor, and also works with Kinesiology, also known as human kinetics; the scientific study of human movement. Kinesiology addresses physiological, mechanical, and psychological effects on the body.  You can trust this man

Dr. Gary Mitchell is one of the best chiropractors I have ever been to!  I was new to the area and had called around to several chiropractic offices and they were the first to get back to me and the friendliest! Their office is warm and welcoming and I had immediately felt at ease.  I had a problem with my sciatic nerve and after a few treatments I was already feeling like a new person!  Dr. Gary Mitchell and Joan (the manager) are very compassionate and very helpful.  I was also appreciative of the fact that Dr. Mitchell took the time to show me diagrams and photos of the problems relating to my back and sciatic nerve to help me fully understand what was going on with the pain on the right side of my body.  All in all,  I recommend Dr.Gary Mitchell to everyone who is looking for a chiropractor!!

I have seen Gary several times now on the recommendation of a long time friend and am feeling much, much better after only a few treaments.  I have a compressed L5 vertebra which has plagued me for over 15 years and it is a very sensitive area on my back.  I see massage therapists weekly for reflexology and back problems, but only a couple I trust to work on my lower back due to nerve compression.Gary Mitchell has gained my confidence as the ONLY person who can navigate my lower spine without sending me through the roof!

The best, best, best Chiropractor ever! Dr. Gary is a true healer. I've gone in there in agony and walked out a new person. I've been seeing him since 1998, and my entire family goes (3 kids, sister, my Mom, etc.). He makes sure you're in balance. I've never before been to such an amazing Doctor. He's office manager Joan is a doll, and the whole vibe in there is wonderful. His patients swear by him and folks travel from all over the state to see him. I have an insanely demanding job, and with Dr. Gary's care and attention, I've been able to perform at peak levels. Run, walk, hobble, crawl - do whatever you have to do - if you have any kind of back, hip, shoulder, neck, leg or arm pain - see him now!

Dr. Mitchell always greets you with a warm smile! I started to see him for my neck issues starting a couple of months ago.  I am very happy with the progress, and I can honestly say I'm getting better for good.  I never felt that way with my previous chiropractors. I'm very much taken with his genuine desire for me to heal and come see him less, which is what's happening already.  :-)  I don't even think about my neck issues anymore, and I can sleep well at night, yay!

People call me “Luna”.  I am now an avid Tango dancer.  Dr. Mitchell has been my Chiropractor for more than 30 years.  He has kept me walking, and now dancing through ALL of my past physical adventures.  Really an amazing achievement, I must say!    For nearly 20 of those years, I was a caterer lifting heavy coolers, tables and chairs and standing for hours on concrete floors.  I have played tennis, skied Black Diamond trails, done roller blading, running, and trained race horses, rode in rodeos and jumped horses.  As a result he has treated me for all of these related injuries and I am still an able athlete.  Oh my, I nearly forgot to mention the car accidents.  Once I was in a Subaru and rear-ended by a Dodge van while sitting at a stop light.  The steel frame of the car seat pushed into my spine.  I am still dancing thanks to his skillful approach to healing.

Having just visited Gary Mitchell, D.C. again (after not needing chiropractic care for a while) and also having recently learned about Yelp, I feel compelled to write a few words about him. Over the years I've had opportunity to use a number of Chiropractors, but none quite like him. His greatest virtue is his miraculous analytical inclination and skill. He will ask insightful and often surprising questions. Then he will perform all these little tests, asking you to resist him as he pulls this and pushes that; will find areas of no muscle strength at all and then may perform some action or adjustment you might not even feel at some seemingly totally unrelated place and--Voilá--your strength is instantly back and your discomfort is on the way out the window!

Apart from that, if that were not enough, he is very strong AND very gentle, very smart and as genuinely charming and caring as anyone can be. His office staff is delightful, too. It is such a treat to go there that I could see where someone might want to even when they feel fine. I rarely leave a treatment without laughing out load at the peculiarity of it all, and the fact I could feel so much better in a matter of minutes.I am amazed whenever I hear about antagonistic relations between D.C,'s and M.D.'s (though certainly not from him--he'd be the first to tell you if you needed to see an M.D.) when chiropractic results are so incontrovertible. Someday this will change, and there will chiropractic programs at any hospital. Still, you'd be very lucky to find one this good.
