Patient reviews
5.0 on Google.
“Hands down the best chiropractor I've ever been to. I came in with chronic back pain, and within a few weeks he helped completely resolve the issue. He's incredibly knowledgeable and truly passionate about his patients. I would 100% recommend coming here, especially if nothing else has worked. I've spent thousands on doctors, specialists, imaging, and physical therapy with no results—this was the only thing that actually helped.”
Erick F.Google review
“I highly recommend Dr. Covert! He is very pleasant, kind, and caring and does a great job. I thought I felt great walking into his office until I walked out feeling even better. I know that it's science, but the shock wave therapy seems like magic”
Peter T.Google review
“I can't say enough good things about Dr. Covert at Atlas Chiropractic. He's not only incredibly knowledgeable but also one of the most genuine and personable doctors I've met. He's been working with me on a shoulder issue, and I really appreciate how thorough and patient he's been in helping me get it resolved. He's also one of the only chiropractors in town offering Shockwave Therapy, which has helped me tremendously with gaining strength and mobility in my arthritis-ridden thumb. If you're looking for a chiropractor who truly cares and takes the time to get things right, go see Dr. Jake! Nate”
