Chiropractic Life Center

I have nothing but words of praise for Dr. Pat’s work as a holistic practitioner…

I have been going to Dr. Pat since 2005. I am diagnosed with stenosis of the spine, partial scoliosis, and several herniated disks. I have fractured my back twice and have arthritis. Because of Dr. Pat I have not had to have surgery yet. I can be mostly pain free if I work with him on the problems that come up. Dr. Pat is an excellent communicator because he listens. He also never stops learning himself and continues to bless his patients with his knowledge and experiences to help them get well. Most of all he is patient and a caring individual. I am very thankful for Dr. Pat.

He is an amazing chiropractor who takes his time to help you get back in alignment. He is great with me and my kiddos!

I first came to Dr. Dougherty a little over 2 yrs. ago., 6 yrs. prior I received a diagnosis of Bi-lateral carpal tunnel syndrome, with severe hand and wrist pain, all my digital dexterity was compromised with little to no feeling left in my fingers. Sleep was severely compromised with  many days of no sleep at all!

Not wanting the “only” option of surgery, I began a course of treatment w/Dr. Dougherty. After 2 yrs. of semi-regular treatment, I now have 90% feeling returned, the pain has decreased significantly, and sleep has returned. I continue to work as a maintenance /grounds keeper.This is a big deal, since at one point I had to step away from the job and many of my responsibilities!

At 70 yrs. old, I am very grateful for the persistence of Dr. Dougherty in continually employing new, and different methods of treatment to get me to the place I now enjoy! Regular maintenance with Dr. Dougherty has definitely paid off with high returns!!

Dr. Pat is so calm and centered, one can’t help but feel better whenever you’re in his presence. I highly recommend him.

I have been seeing Dr. Pat for about 15 years. Before that I’ve gone to others chiropractors and all have helped in one way or another. But Dr. Pat’s holistic and individualized approach has worked the best. That’s why I stay. I no longer have the low back pain I once did. Neck pain is mostly gone and well controlled with a visit every 2 weeks. And something amazing happened! I suffered with chronic depression since age 11, and with Dr. Pat’s help, found out it was food related depression. I haven’t been depressed now for 2 or 3 years, no more antidepressants needed. It’s really wonderful to be rid of it.

Over the years I have went to many different chiropractors each having their own philosophy and treatment approach. The last few years I have found that Dr. Dougherty’s approach is the most specialized in that he uses your body to get answers as to how and what your body wants to be adjusted, not just a basic adjustment so many do. As a healthcare provider since 2002 I appreciate the care and intelligence that goes into a session with Pat and I always get better results because of it.
