What Patients Are Saying About… Dr.Steve Segal
Hi, my name is Julie Harris, I drive from downtown Chicago to see Dr. Segal. Here’s why: my husband, ex-husband, is a chiropractor, a darn good chiropractor, but for some reason, when Steve Dr. Segal adjusts me, it’s virtually painless, and I get pain relief faster and quicker results. Don, my ex-husband, says Steve is the best adjuster he’s ever met. I agree. -Julie Harris, Chicago, IL
“I was referred to Dr Segal’s office by my previous chiropractor because he couldn’t adjust my back and shoulder. I like how Dr. Segal takes the time to talk with his patients.I like how I can move now, and I have much less pain. I wish I had started with you years ago.Thanks!” -Ed Winsch, Barrington, IL
“Easy to get along with, a good listener. An excellent chiropractor…I always leave his office feeling ten times better than when I arrived for the appointment.” -Lynn Haessly, Hawthorn Woods, IL
“You’re a miracle worker! I used to go to a chiropractor, and it would take 3-4 times to get the results I get with you in one visit.” -Linda Dahlberg, Skokie, IL
“I tell people in pain that you are sincerely interested in their well-being and good health. To come to you for treatment, a person should not expect to have a “single” part of their body treated, for you take a holistic approach to health care. I try to prepare them for the wisdom you will impart on how they can change their lifestyle and exercise efforts to promote overall health. I also try to warn them that you have an irreverent sense of humor in parting these pearls, which probably take the meek by surprise! I also tell people that your philosophy is one listening to your body and that you usually let regular patients determine when they need to see you rather than setting up unnecessary appointments.” -Karen Heil, Chicago, IL
“The ONLY doctor’s appointment… I look forward to!” -Alexander Mehrabian, Prospect Heights, IL
“I chose Dr. Segal as my chiropractor because I immediately felt comfortable with him the first time I spoke to him. On my first visit, he did a very thorough examination. He explained how he needed to treat me, including time frames and frequency of visits. He treated me for back pain, and I felt immediate relief. He dispelled the myth that once you go to a chiropractor, you need to keep going. I now see him on an as-needed basis.” -Jim Heischberg, Antioch, IL
“The stress relief you’ve given me is priceless!” -Anne Graybosch, Lake Villa, IL
” I originally chose Dr Steve Segal as my chiropractor because of his proximity to my work. However, I have stayed a member of his practice for other, more important reasons. The first reason is that I trust Dr. Segal. I trust he will always have my best interest in mind when considering the form of treatment for my ailments. He took the time to discuss my concerns and presented me with all the available alternatives. The second reason I have stayed with Dr. Segal is his skill. Dr Segal is a virtual encyclopedia on human physiology and is extremely capable of chiropractic manipulation. In addition, he stays up to date on current chiropractic treatments through seminars and training. An office visit is always an opportunity for us to catch up with each other and talk about our kids, our work, or whatever comes to mind. I consider my relationship with Steve to be primarily a friendship, with the doctor-patient relationship being secondary. I like going to Dr Segal’s office because it allows me to see an old friend and because I always leave feeling better physically. Chiropractic has in some ways made my life more livable I suffered with chronic neck pain due to a car accident for a few years before I went to Dr. Segal. I had daily headaches and could not sleep some nights because of the discomfort. I now no longer have the chronic pain and go to Dr. Segal mainly for maintenance.” -Michael Strozewski, Mt Prospect, IL
“He’s the only guy you think of when you hurt so bad…you can hardly think.” -Dave Huber, Lindenhurst, IL
“You care about each of us as individuals. You love us all in a very special way, I would not be moving without your help! Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.” -Kathy Klemt, Buffalo Grove, IL
“I like that you run pretty much on time and don’t line everyone up in front of a VCR and playback product marketing promos. Probably most importantly, you have the touch. When you make a correction, you are confident and successful. I am never nervous. Also, I can tell you are as happy as I am with my correction. Gentle. I know I will learn something (I always do.) I know I will see a doctor who is as invested in my health as I am. I can’t say that for the seven doctors and two chiropractors, I saw earlier last year. I know you will tell me the truth. I know you will never take advantage of your power and overcharge or keep treating a practice member longer than you feel is necessary. (Boy, are you different!) Before chiropractic, the hand pain kept me from sleeping and doing much more than brushing my teeth for the day. Before chiropractic, I couldn’t cut my own french toast with a fork and knife. I know God has blessed you. I know he will always bless your practice because of your integrity and love for people. I know he has blessed me because he allowed me to find you. Thank You.” -Cheryl McCokle, Arlington Heights, IL
“He’s very knowledgeable, compassionate, personable. Of all the chiropractors over the years, I feel like he is as much a friend as he is the best doctor I’ve ever had.” -Name withheld…an RN at the “local hospital.”
“Nobody loves his work as much as Doc Segal loves what he does. He’s the best!” -Leif Rolfsen, Grayslake, IL
Stephanie G., three years old…this is what she said to her mom while driving… “I think I need to see Dr. Segal. My neck is really bothering me.”
*Note: Doc Segal here; I really love that after a child has been adjusted a time or two, they know when they need to be in the office.
“Amazing, Amazing! You’re so good at it, you’ve got magic hands…such a guru!” -Rebecca Brancato, Arlington Heights, Illinois.
“I chose Dr Segal because he’s an Applied Kinesiologist. He ensures that the whole body’s needs are met every visit, and he NEVER insists that you will not be better if you don’t come back regularly. He is extremely knowledgeable and continually studies and reads to be even better if that’s possible.If he can’t help you, he will refer you to the appropriate specialist.I like coming to his office mainly because I know I’ll feel better when I leave. I lettered in gymnastics in college and was not always graceful. After 2 automobile accidents, chiropractic has kept me from having surgery on my neck, and I can still function normally.” -Alice Pierce, Lake Forest, IL
