The Joint ...the Chiropractic Place

Hurt my back lifting a box so I went to the joint. Chiro spent maybe 1 minute on back and didn’t get mid back cracks. He tried to sit on me with his hand under back my back and missed; didn’t try a second time. He didn’t feel my spine at the end to see if I was aligned. I’ve seen many chiropractors over the years and I’ve only had a few bad adjustments; this was one of them. Now I’ll have to make an appointment with a real chiro. Complete waste of money. I think this joint setup is for people that want a quick back crack at lunch or after work and don’t have actual back issues.

Do not make any contracts with them because they will continue to bill you for months after you cancel (They DO NOT tell you this when you sign). The adjustments are great, but don’t sign any contracts with them. You’re better off going somewhere else.

I love visiting this location. Lisa always greets me with a smile and quickly gets me back to see the chiropractor; usually Dr. Peter who is equally as awesome. The entire staff is fun, friendly, and professional. You can tell from the moment you walk in that everyone in the office enjoys their job and wants you to feel welcome. Go see this team– you won’t regret it!!!

The Joint on 7^th Ave in Phoenix is top-​notch with friendly staff and excellent Chiropractors.
I had a problem with Bursitis in my elbow that had persisted for weeks. I had already seen one chiropractor (in a different state) and had also done acupuncture. Dr. Peter Hughes zeroed right in on it and relieved the swelling in just a few minutes. Thank you so much!
Thanks also to Lisa for making the whole experience easy and pleasant.

My wife and I have been going to the Joint on 7^th Avenue for about a month. Dr. Pete and Lisa are amazing! I came in with sciatica, and he’s helped a ton. Thank you Dr. Pete!

Dr Peter, who is at this location now, is awesome! I followed him from the Chandler mall location. I’m a weight lifter with an injured shoulder and Dr. Peter keeps me in the gym. I’ve been to several chiropractors in the past and he is seriously the best. He actually takes the time to listen to what I have to say and adjusts as needed. He never seems rushed or busy and always remembers what is going on with me and what we did last week. (I’m sure he has notes on the computer to help him remember but still… It’s nice to not have to explain what’s going on every time I come in) Dr Peter is easy to talk to, knows what he’s doing, and is an all around nice/​cool guy. You really can’t go wrong by deciding to come in.
The joint is unbelievable. You only pay $ 49 per month and get 4 visits per month. This is a fantastic deal compared to competitors. The front desk staff is always pleasant. The building is clean and modern, and the locations (that I’ve been to) are in good locations. If you need chiropractic care, you can’t beat it.

Absolutely love this location! Dr. Pete and Dr. Rebecca are both amazing and have helped me with numerous problems including headaches and tendonitis in my elbow. The front desk is always a pleasure to talk to (love Lisa!) and there is almost never a wait time. I highly recommend this location over any other (and I’ve been to a few others). The Wellness Plan is more than worth signing up for.

This is my first ever review. Why now? Dr. Pete and his staff, such as Lisa, deserve an exceptional review. Therefore, I’m the one who feels guilty for not writing one sooner. Dr. Pete is a cut above the very best. I’ve been to 4 – 5 Joint locations over the years therefore several chiropractors. YES people, there is a difference in manipulation experience! Dr. Pete is by far the best doctor I’ve seen. He is well versed in diagnosis and treatment. He has always found the key muscle and/​or bone position that causes my discomforts. I walk out satisfied and ready to hit the bed. The next morning I feel like I could run a marathon! (not really but work with me). You go to places like this for help from a great doc. Look no further, you’ve found it. Further, Dr. Pete is very patient and polite. A really good guy. Further, the office staff is always pleasant and I never wait more than 10 minutes. 95% of the time I walk right in and get seen (helps to go during low traffic times). Lastly, the place is always clean. Its very easy to give this place 5 stars as every visit I’ve had there has been 5.

This place is great. They manage to combine convenience with actual skill. With the swipe of my keychain, I’m signed in & rarely wait more than a couple of minutes to be seen. They are friendly & appear to genuinely care about your well-​being.
Dr. Pete knows his stuff & is super thorough. He’s remembered me after just one visit, which is so nice.
The lovely front desk woman, Lisa, is bringing the East Coast realness & I love it. She’s friendly, funny, informative & on-​point.
(I signed up for their plan which ends up being $ 8 cheaper per visit than my insurance co-​pay!)

Totally amazing. The doctor is dreamy too. He can work on my back anyday! My headaches have completely gone away since receiving weekly adjustments. I recommend the Premium Wellness Plan for the best cost deal for regular adjustments.

The always friendly and welcoming front desk ladies make me feel like they sincerely care about how my day is going. It’s refreshing. The wait is never long and the chiropractors are very attentive to what is bothering me and adjusting and noticing problems. They have also provided pointers to help for posture or strengthening different areas to prevent future injury. Great place!

We went in today for a quick correction. Lisa and Kevin were incredible. Thank you for working on my mother, she feels so much better! Highly recommend, great location great team!

Pete and the office ladies are great. He helped get me back to race shape and is working with me on my next race. He definitely knows what he is doing and is the only person who has been able to adjust my neck comfortably. Have gone back several times and will continue to do so as the wait is super quick and everyone is very friendly.

I went for my first ever experience at The Joint at this Phoenix location, since I was already in the area. I filled out the medical intake paperwork and I was given a card key to scan whenever I visit any location of The Joint. The woman at the front desk was very personable and pleasant. She explained everything about The Joint and was happy to answer my questions. She gave me a pamphlet to take home, which explained the different package plans available at The Joint. I saw Dr. Lee on this first visit and I liked him so much. First, he shook my hand and welcomed me. Then he sat down and took the time to look over my paperwork, discuss my concerns, and listen to me. He didn’t rush, even though there was one person in the waiting room who needed to be seen. I told Dr. Lee about the pain I was in, my general areas of concern, and the chronic tightness and discomfort that I have. He listened patiently to everything I said and seemed genuinely concerned about my well-​being. Dr. Lee appears to be a chiropractor who is less about «cracking» and «popping» and more about healing through gentle adjustment and pressure point release. He did some pressure point work and some stretching. He continuously checked in with me throughout the adjustment, asking me how things felt as we went along. He did do one «crack», but it wasn’t overly forced or painful. Prior to going into The Joint, my neck pain was causing me difficulty even turning my head to the left while driving, (which is not safe at all). The discomfort was still there somewhat when I left The Joint that day, but I noticed that by the next day, the neck issue was almost completely resolved! Because of the relief I felt, and the reasonable per-​visit price that comes with a pre-​paid package, I decided to visit another franchise location. There, I bought a package that brings my per-​visit price to around $ 17. Thankfully, the pre-​paid package visits are good at any location of The Joint. I was quite displeased with my experience at The Joint in Goodyear. From now on, I may just drive the extra distance to see Dr. Lee in Phoenix.

Amazing, feel great when i leave

I went to the chiropractor for about 1 year 10 years ago and have never been back. But I recently started a desk job and my shoulders and back have been aching and in pain. I have a FSA so I convinced my husband to go with me to their office to check them out. The guy (not a girl) was very friendly and the registration was smooth. I was told that my back was not that bad, but to come back often but my husband was advised to come back weekly and he felt fine!!! After two treatments thus far I am feeling much better and I can actually feel the difference. I met with Joe and David (don’t know their last names) but these two guys know their stuff and were gentle. Their hours are the best and they get you in and out in no time. Check them out!

I had been having severe headaches for 3 months and the doctors at my Dr. office and ER were unable to provide any relief beyond shoveling pain pills down my throat UGH! So I decided to try out The Joint after driving by the McDowell location several times upon leaving the Dr. office. Man it was the BEST decision of my life! Dr. Lee has magic hands! He adjusted my spin and neck ever so gently and my headache immediately disappeared and has never returned! The packages are very reasonable and the receptionist Lisa Is a doll… always so friendly and helpful! I now get an adjustment every week and I’ve never felt better! Thanks Dr. Lee!

Love Dr. Lee and also Dr. Harris! I have seen them both and I love having the choice between the two docs, along with other Joint locations when I’m on the other side of town for work. Dr. Harris is good if you REALLY need that «pop», thanks guys! :)

My husband’s nest was really out of whack. I suggested coming here after a friend recommended it. We were presently surprised at the FAST service, cleanliness and reasonable price!

Awesome place. economical, thorough, great service, knowledgeable…

I love that you can pop into the Joint, get in and out and receive excellent care and service. The hours are so convenient and you feel valued as a patient by the reception staff and Doctors. I always feel better after a visit to the Joint and highly recommend them.

SHAME on The Joint for refusing to do ANYTHING about a HORRIBLE employee!!!
On March 30^th, Dr. John Harris at 7^th Ave & McDowell gave me a bizarre and frightening «adjustment» I’ve ever experienced and forced me into very painful stretches, which resulted in the worst back pain I’ve ever known. Over 2 months later, having had countless adjustments and paying for multiple deep tissue massages, I am STILL in excruciating pain, with knots/​spasms no one can believe. I have been barely able to walk, move, or breathe thanks to that idiot.
In addition, their stupid male receptionist didn’t bother to tell me it was my 5^th visit of the month until AFTER my torture session. So to add insult to literal injury, I actually PAID to be seriously hurt. I was in pain before I even got back into the car!!!

Neither the Joint nor that sorry excuse for a chiropractor has contacted me. I have had to pay for extra adjustments, X-​rays, and massages with no offer of reimbursement. Not even an inquiry or an apology. I’ve just been COMPLETELY ignored.
The Joint stands idly by while Harris embarrasses the entire profession, and lends a bad reputation to all the really great doctors who do work for them (try Surprise or 59^th & Union Hills instead).
He should have his credentials revoked by the state immediately!!!
SHAME SHAME SHAME!!!

[3.5 for quality of service and solid 4 for convenience…3.5]
Desperate and in pain I needed help. I had already gone for a deep tissue massage but it didn’t help. I asked my friends for referrals, but I couldn’t wait. Having seen these pop up all over town and reading a few reviews for the Camelback location, I decided to give the closest one to me a try [i.e The McDowell and 7^th Ave location.]
Calling in I asked to make an appointment and was told that they are strictly a walk-​in clinic and don’t take appointments. I asked how busy they were and she said they were not, so I rushed over. After a completing the relatively quick administrative stuff, I was almost immediately lead behind a thick wall which partitioned the waiting area from the treatment area. There were several treatment tables, presumably to work on multiple clients at the same time if necessary.[A chiropractor I had been to in the past had about 8 treatment tables and worked on several patients simultaneously.]
Dr. Lee was friendly and covered the necessary bases asking standard questions and having me describe what I was feeling.
After a few pops here, another one there and a few clicks of his activator and I was on my way. Still in pain but hopeful. He recommended I stop in again the next day. I stopped at the desk paid my $ 19 for my first initial visit. (Woah I like this.) They have package plans but I wasn’t being forced the up sale which was great but the prices on the packages are quite reasonable.
Still in pain and still desperate I went back the next day (Saturday, yes they have very convenient hours.). Again I was greeted politely, scanned the little bar code card I was given on the previous day and only waited a few minutes before I was greeted by Dr. Lee and escorted back to the treatment tables. Again he maneuvered and tried a more energy based technique (hey I am down with that, I often seek out New Age healing techniques). I felt some movement and momentum and he advised me that if I was still feeling the pain by Monday I should go in to my Primary Care Physician. [Which I ended up having to do.]
Ok, after all that here it is, in short. Would I go there again? Yes.
Sometimes all I need is to get in, get out and get on my way. This fits my busy lifestyle! ;)
