Reviews of Lakeside Spine & Wellness

Alison Schwartz

Dr. Samuel Pare was wonderful all around. I’ve had fairly low-key, but consistent neck pain for years and he really helped alleviate my symptoms. I love that he’s more holistic than a standard chiropractor. Yes, he does chiropractic adjustments, which work. But he also incorporates many other modalities, including stretches, exercises, strengthening, massage, and other functional movements that were easy to do and super effective. And he’s an all around lovely, polite person. Dr. Pare typically imposes a fairly short course of treatment. I completed mine in a few months, and I have to admit that he’s so pleasant to work with that I miss seeing him (shout out to his mom for raising a gentleman). I highly recommend him. He’s a top notch health care provider.

Mira Manella

I was referred to Lakeside by my acupuncturist and am so grateful for her recommendation. My experience here with Dr. Pare has been extremely positive - he is kind, knowledgeable, and a great listener. He takes a genuine interest in you and is so enjoyable to work with. I never once felt uncomfortable, like I have in the past with other chiropractors and physical therapists, and actually looked forward to each of our appointments. The treatment plan he came up with for me was straightforward and thorough, and never left me feeling overwhelmed or confused. I felt results immediately! Part of my treatment included a massage from Ken, who was also so kinda and accommodating and excellent at his work. I highly recommend Lakeside for anybody looking for a really great chiropractic and physical therapy experience.

I visited Lakeside Spine & Wellness for chronic shoulder and neck pain and had a very positive experience. I have seen chiropractors in the past in which treatment focused on routine adjustments, which didn't always fix or identify the root cause of the problem. Dr. Kiper and his team go above and beyond to develop comprehensive treatment plans involving adjustments, and if needed dry needling, massage, and physical therapy. This combination helped treat/relieve my pain, and helped me return to my baseline function and learn strategies to prevent injury in the future. I really felt like he cared about me as a patient and took into account my lifestyle and needs. Everyone in the office was very professional and approachable, and the clinic is in a convenient, clean, and modern building. I highly recommend their services.

Kelly Erickson

Dr Pare is an exceptional doctor, attentive and knowledgeable about so much! Helped with not just the immediate discomfort but worked to ensure I had the right exercises to improve mobility and strength. Highly recommend — after years of quick adjustment chiropractic care I can’t recommend this robust practice enough!

Hallie Williams

I could talk about how amazing Lakeside Spine and Wellness is FOR DAYS! I came in barely able to walk from back pain. Dr. Kiper addressed the problem head-on, with a short treatment plan that has had quick & incredible long-term success. He used a holistic approach and combined multiple methods of treatment, with adjustments, stretches, lumbar rolls, dry needling, and massages. I am now completely pain-free with a fully healed disc…that’s a HUGE deal!!! And I have preventative exercises to help keep this from reoccurring. In addition to Dr. Kiper, every person at his practice is so kind and amazing at what they do. His care coordinators are incredible with cost transparency, payment plans, scheduling, etc and my mind had never been more at ease. I had no surprise costs, just clear, compassionate communication and warm welcomes every time I walked in the front door. His massage therapist, Ken, is simply wonderful and gives the best massages. And my boyfriend is currently seeing Dr. Pare as well for chronic knee pain and is having tremendous success. If you’re like I was — in pain, but afraid of making that call to a chiropractor (whether that be in fear of what treatment is like, how long it will take, or the costs associated with getting you back on your feet) — look no further than Lakeside Spine and Wellness. You will be in amazing hands.

Rae Kristine Bernardo

As someone who hesitated so much of going to a chiropractor, I’m glad Lakeside Spine and Wellness was recommended to me! It was such a great experience working with Dr Kiper and trainers Isaac and Shane. They were all supportive, honest, and very accommodating to what I was only capable of. I was also direct about not being able to get the massage, and Dr Kiper was very understanding about it, so I did a dry needling session instead and 10/10 would recommend it! And the front desk ladies, Hannah and Catherine, were always so welcoming! 10/10 Great place and great staff!

Katy

Dr. Pare was fantastic to work with. He listened carefully to what I was feeling and which movements/exercises helped, and took into account entire health rather than focusing on just one problem. I appreciated his flexibility with acupuncture vs massages and how he made an effort to make a real connection during every appointment. My issue is totally resolved without the need for weekly adjustments, I can’t recommend this practice enough.

Kelly Murray

I loved my experience with Lakeside Spine and Wellness! I went in for neck pain and Dr. Mendez gave me a high level of care, coaching me through the tough moments and always showing the utmost dedication to helping me get better. She gave me exercises that released a lot of tension in my neck, jaw and upper back. With the help of some adjustments, I feel like I have a new jaw and more mobility in my neck than I had experienced in years. I love that the treatment was so dynamic - it included adjustments, massage, acupuncture, cupping and muscle rehab. Thank you Lakeside, and Dr. Mendez!!

Doug Kerwin

I had an outstanding experience here. I arrived in Chicago visiting from out of town and a lower back issue that had been brewing got much worse the first morning I woke up in Chicago. Being a Saturday on a holiday weekend I didn’t have much hope of finding an emergency chiropractor but I found Lakeside who returned my call and offered me an appointment that morning with Dr. Mendez who was amazing. She got me into much better shape walking out than I walked in and left me with the tools I’d need to maintain on my own for the next couple days so I’d be in good enough shape for the flight home. She spent a lot of time with me and explained everything very well. If I lived in Chicago I would continue to see her.

Joyce Carpino

I am so impressed by this office. Eight weeks ago I couldn’t even turn or lift my head. I am 70 years old and moved over the summer which is how I hurt my neck and back. I am now pain free, thanks to Dr. Pare. The staff is wonderful. Clayton and Katherine are so accommodating and friendly. I would highly recommend this office to anyone dealing with pain. They teach you how to relieve your pain naturally.

Jason Filipowski

Expert staff with excellent coordination between doctors and massage. I came into Lakeside Spine & Wellness desperate for relief from jaw, neck, and mid-back pain after years of bad posture at my computer. Despite working with a personal trainer I was still losing range of motion and waking up in pain. Dr. Mendez took the time to understand my history of injury, prescribe an action plan, and share learnings with my trainer. Doing the recommended exercises I have experienced tremendous improvement, and have a plan to continue strengthening, in just 8 weeks. A very short time considering the years of discomfort. My jaw has stopped tightening and crunching, my head has moved back, and my posture is healthier. I am also confident I now have the knowledge to avoid these same problems in the future! Thank you Dr. Mendez and team 🙏👏🙌

Devon Turner

I was referred to Dr. Pare following several back injuries from working out (and getting old) and really enjoyed the level of care I received here. I was hesitant to be put on a wellness plan but really glad that I followed through with it - it was really tailored to me and the team at Lakeside took great care of me. I was able to integrate a lot of the care into my every day life to combat further back pain and have a better understanding of my own behaviors to correct to alleviate future pain.

Sam Liput

Alright I’m not the type of person to go outta my way to do a review anywhere but like…I had a very positive experience at Lakeside!! Dr Mendez is a very sweet and caring individual as a person and as a doctor 😊 very accommodating and understanding of the pain I had with my back. Recommended and showed me certain exercises/stretches to do whenever I experience the pain I was having again in the future. Overall it’s made me more confident in my physical abilities and she motivates me to get stronger💪

YeChan Lim

Dr. Pare and his team at Lakeside Spine & Wellness were wonderful to work with. He listened to my problems and created a treatment plan that alleviated my pain and easy steps to keep the pain away. Could not recommend him more to anyone looking for a chiropractor!

Kira Binder

I have been to many different chiropractors and physical therapists for shoulder, neck and back pain. Those have consisted of many different exercises with overwhelming and difficult to understand language and no maintenance plan for after treatment. After going to Dr. Kiper, I finally feel like I’ve found what I’ve been looking for in a doctor! Since the beginning of my treatment, him and his team have been extremely supportive, helpful, and most importantly, provided me with tools to use in my own time for pain relief and maintenance. I started treatment unable to move my neck fully in any direction and left feeling much more comfortable and hopeful. I am so thankful to have come across Dr. Kiper’s office and his team, and can’t thank them enough for being a positive space in a healthcare system that could use more of places like Lakeside Wellness!

Jenn

I can't say about Dr. Kiper or Dr. Mendez!!! Neck pain-gone! Back pain- gone! I thought I had hip issues, I had been to an Ortho who told me I would need them replaced one day- a simple stretch fixed me!!! This place doesn't make you come for 100 visits or even 10, their goal is to get you better & out!!! I love them & highly recommend!!!; I also love Ken, the masseuse on staff!

Laura Chase

Working with Dr. Pare final put an end to my neck and upper shoulder pain. I’m a musician who needs to be able to play for long persons of time and know I have exercises to help! No more headaches, no more pain and even if there is some pain I have more than enough tool to manage it on my own.

Jillian Lamberson

Lakeside Spine & Wellness was the best choice for my treatment. Not only did they fix my issue, but Dr. Pare provided me with the proper tools and exercises to prevent it from reoccurring. Highly recommend!!! A wonderful office full of kind and wonderful people!

kendal jones

I have had a great experience at Lakeside. I came in with lower back pain and some knee pain and with a combination of adjustments and learning stretches and exercises to do, I have over a few months felt better, stronger and am nearly pain free now. I would highly recommend this practice.

Jacob Kearney

Dr. Yvette Mendez was an absolute joy to work with! My flexibility is 100 times better than when I walked to the door the first time. I will definitely be coming back.

Brenda Short

Dr.Pare is awesome, I came in with extreme lower back pain and left feeling great he gave me some great skills to use and motivated me to make some changes, he is a great listener all of the staff are so nice. I highly recommend lakeside spine & Wellness... I would leave 10 stars if I could.

Amber Miliauskas

A friend recommended Lakeside Spine and Wellness to me when I was experiencing some pretty uncomfortable lower back pain. It was a great recommendation. This place was wonderful. All of the staff was very warm and welcoming. I began seeing Dr. Pare and set up a series of treatments to fix my lower back pain. Dr. Pare is amazing. He is kind and easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. He took his time in explaining things to me, in terms that weren’t too technical, and easy for me to understand. He helped teach me movements to correct the problems I was experiencing and to help prevent them from reoccurring. In his treatment plan, he was very considerate of my lifestyle and work schedule and gave me options and exercises that I could easily do. As a runner, Dr. Pare also gave me a lot of advice and tips on how to prevent injury and strength training that will improve my performance. My back pain is no longer an issue, but I plan on continuing to see Dr. Pare for adjustments or any other issues I might have in the future. I encourage others to do so as well!

Rob Shields

Dr. Pare is the man. I came in after legitimately throwing my back out after stepping out of the shower (this is what 34 feels like apparently). I was in a rough place, but Dr. Pare helped me heal quickly. I stuck to the treatment plan and cadence 100% and you should too. What I like most about this approach to treatment is that you are not told you have to come here forever. There’s general guidelines about your start and end date, granted I still plan to go back for occasional adjustments in the future. Also, Ken is hands down the best massage therapist I’ve ever had and I have had a TON of massages in my day. The only part of the experience that I found a little bit wonky was the upfront payment and the rationale for having it set up that way. I didn’t really care because it was all on my FSA card, but I imagine this may take some by surprise. Thanks Dr. P!!

Angelina Yousif

I recommend this place if you’re looking for a chiropractor. Dr. Koch was very easy to speak to and he explained things very well so I could understand what’s going on. He helped manage my pain A LOT with the different instructions and tools he gave me. I had tried a couple ways to manage my pain before with PT and a different chiropractor but they all felt so rushed. Dr. Koch asked questions and didn’t rush anything. He was a big help! Dr. Cook also gave great massages and he made the area feel really comfortable. Everyone at the front desk was very welcoming too! There’s really no better place but Lakeside Spine & Wellness

Lizzie S

Dr. Kiper and the entire team at LSW are incredible. Not only did Dr. Kiper help improve my chronic TMJ pain, but he gave me simple tools to help keep my pain away. On top of that, from the moment I arrived I felt so welcomed by everyone, every session I was comfortable and happy to be there. Don't bother with other chiropractors—Lakeside Spine & Wellness is truly the best!

Matthew Biagini

I Highly recommend lakeside spine and wellness to anyone looking for a chiropractor. My experience with them has been pretty much life changing. Dr. Koch worked with me to ease pain I was feeling in my lower back and neck. We saw results almost immediately with a hybrid approach of alignment & physical therapy. Over the Next 2 months, my pain gradually became nonexistent. The entire staff there is so friendly from everyone at the front desk, to Ken, the message therapist, and physical trainers. They go above and beyond to educate you on the process throughout, so that their patients are ideally able to be independent and work out any future problems that arise on their own. 10/10.

Kate Patterson

My primary care physician referred me to Lakeside Spine & Wellness. I woke up one morning with severe back pain that left me barely able to walk around my apartment- I visited urgent care and was prescribed muscle relaxants that helped me sleep but not much else. I had no previous back issues and this pain prevented me from working, so I was nervous about this new pain. Clayton and Hannah are both friendly and helpful in explaining insurance coverage and booking appointments. Dr Koch explained that it was not the goal of the practice to have me coming in for adjustments endlessly. He walked me through the steps for my plan of care and asked if I had any questions. Dr Koch is great about asking if there are any questions. Dr Koch had me do 1-2 exercises at home a couple times each day between visits and I was able to regain confidence in movement. Isaac went through some exercises with me and bumped up the weight I usually lifted which helped restore my confidence with weights (I had taken a break from anything remotely back-related at the gym since my injury), and the massage from Ken was therapeutic and gave me renewed energy. Lakeside is a smart and compassionate team & I am so glad to have been treated by them.

Rachel Allen

I have been so blessed to have received care from Lakeside Spine and Wellness and specifically Dr. Koch! I am a generally healthy person but have struggled with back and neck pain due to my sedentary job. Dr. Koch taught me so much about why I was experiencing pain and gave me helpful tools and adjustments to manage it and build strength. It's now my goal to move more and continue building strength for maintained spinal health!

Ella Wang

Strongly recommended if you have any issues with your neck, shoulder, and back! I had a magrine from neck pain and went to Dr. Kiper. He has made a personlized 2-month treatment for me and in the end, my magrine disappered and my neck is mostly recovered! The treatment includes massages and I have specialist Ken for it. He is very professional and always listen to clients' needs before starting. Great people and professional team!

Matthew Simon

I had lower back pain issues consistently for a few weeks in early December. I was in so much pain i decided to look online for a chiropractor with a decent amount of good reviews and hope that would solve my back pain issues. That is how i found Lakeside Spine & Wellness & Dr. Kiper. I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Kiper and Dr. Kiper told me if I committed to his program, after the 6-8 weeks I would walk away pain free in my lower back. After 6 weeks I was done and out pain free. Dr. Kiper was fantastic and true to his word. It has been a month or so since seeing Dr. Kiper and I have been following his recommendations and I am still back pain free!!! I would highly recommend to anyone with back pain issues. Also, the front desk in-take specialists there are fantastic too!

Hannah Andrekus

Dr. Ivette Mendez is an amazing chiropractor! She is passionate and very knowledgeable, always going the extra mile for patients.

Aimee Morgenstern

Dr. Kiper is top notch chiropractor and provided excellent care. I am quite critical of health professionals as I am one myself and and admittedly was skeptical of chiropractic care before Dr. Kiper. He changed my mind. His strong understanding of the body and his holistic approach are what I was seeking. I was 7 months pregnant when I met Dr. Kiper. I was in 10/10 pain from having major rib inflammation (chondritis) from excessive coughing from RSV. I was in tears from the pain and so scared. I achieved immediate relief from my first visit and within a week, my rib pain was 0-2. His care allowed me to have a healthy third trimester and labor and delivery. Rib pain is NO JOKE especially when you have a growing baby in you, but he carefully and expertly helped me and I am forever grateful. Also, his office and staff are fantastic too. I can’t say enough good things!

Tiffanie Tabrizi

Dr. Pare, Ken, and the whole team are wonderful. Appointments were easy & convenient to make - they worked the treatments around my schedule. Hannah & the front desk folks really worked with me to find the right days/times that were convenient for me. This was such a positive experience, especially because I was wary of chiropractors after a negative experience years ago. Dr. Pare put me at ease, explained his approach and rationale, and made me feel super comfortable. Not only does he have a super friendly and kind demeanor, but he explains everything to make sure you're comfortable and understand what he's doing and why. His treatment really depends on your partnership as a patient (i.e. you have to do your homework) but you'll get the return on your investment if you put your trust in him. I could also go on about KEN, who is incredibly talented and intuitive. Lakeside's comprehensive whole body approach to healing is exactly what I was looking for - and as a bonus, massages were covered by my insurance! While I'm thrilled to be discharged from weekly treatment, I will miss Dr. Pare and the team! But I'm so lucky to have found them.

Amandeep Kalsi

I visited Dr Kiper for my shoulder and back pain. We just had 6 sessions and my pain was gone. I would definitely recommend to visit Dr Kiper for any chiropractor needs.

Ryan Sadowy

I went for treatment with Dr. Kiper a long time ago and have been good ever since. While training for the tri I over did it a bit and came in for a massage with Ken. Just what the doctor ordered! Feeling great and ready to get back at the training

Erik Hampe

Dr. Mendez is FANTASTIC! She is incredibly knowledgeable and helped within the first visit. She gave me the knowledge to do exercises to keep myself feeling great. I also had some dry needling done from her and it helped with pain and tightness that I have had for years! I look forward to continuing working with her. Thanks again Dr. Mendez and the team at Lakeside!

Emily Paymer

I am so grateful to have found Lakeside Spine. Dr. Pare, Dr. Kiper and trainer Issac have been a lifesaver for me. Their facility is top notch, clean, and welcoming. The front desk staff are friendly and always willing to help. Even though I was an elite athlete and experienced many injuries in my life I did not know what was causing my pain or how to fix it. Dr. Kiper and Dr. Pare immediately set up a program for me and got me in for appointments right away. They answered all my questions and provided me with great care. Very happy to say the treatments worked. I would recommend to see any of the staff at Lakeside!

Wesley Niemisto

Lakeside Spine & Wellness was exactly what I needed to get my lower back pain under control. Dr. Kiper really helped me understand what was going on with my back, developed a robust treatment plan, and updated me on my progress with each visit. He is not a traditional Chiropractor that will keep you coming back for adjustments, which only end up being a temporary relief of pain. He provides patients with the tools/training necessary to take control of their own body, gradually making adjustments to the exercises to ensure continual progress. I really started to notice an increase in my flexion and decrease in pain after the first few appointments, and about 1 month after being discharged, I'm still feeling better than ever!

Kim Gibson

I’ve had such a great experience working with Dr. Pare, Hannah and the rest of the staff at Lakeside Spine & Wellness. The support and encouragement throughout my treatment has been fantastic. Dr. Pare was very thorough and helped me develop tools of my own that I can use for continued quality of life! He put together a personalized plan of attack to help address lower back pain that, before coming to LS&W, I thought was just going to be a part of my life now. He even helped me develop modified movements I can use which help strengthen my knee from an old injury. I cannot recommend Lakeside Spine & Wellness enough. I am so happy I decided to put myself first and come here; you will be too! Update - 7/10: I had a follow up massage today with Ken. I don’t normally get massages so I am awkward throughout the whole process. Ken made me feel very comfortable and even gave me kudos for the work I had been doing with Dr. Pare. He asked specific questions about what brought me in to begin with and with that, he was able to instantly pinpoint the areas I needed addressed the most. He’s a great asset to LS&W, very professional and super skilled in his craft.

Kat Fraser

I sought out Dr. Kiper while I was pregnant for use of the Webster technique, which is safe for pregnancy! I started chiropractic care at 20 weeks pregnant to prevent & manage the aches and pains of pregnancy. I saw Dr. Kiper every few weeks for an adjustment and saw Ken Cook for massages as well. I also worked with Dr. Koch on breathing exercises. These three worked in collaboration to ensure I had a healthy, pain-free pregnancy. I firmly believe that the chiropractic care I received kept me pain-free and aided in a smooth delivery with efficient breathing & pushing. Dr. Kiper's team really cares about their patients. Their focus on correcting dysfunction, not just treating pain, is powerful! This isn't your "woo-woo" chiropractic office that signs you up for a six month treatment plan with three visits a week. They focus on correcting dysfunction, fine-tuning the body, and providing holistic care that helps you live a pain-free life. And bonus: the office staff is incredible! They are so attentive, personable, and welcoming. This team is one of a kind.

Dino Tanovic

Working with Dr. Kiper and his team has been amazing! My back pain started to get better after the first appointment and now a few treatments in I'm feeling better than I have in a long time. I'm surprised with how quickly I've seen results not just decreasing the pain but not having it return as well. He tailors the treatment plan to your needs and changes it as you respond to it. I could not be any happier with my experience.

Erik & Bracken G

Dr. Pare was awesome! From the get go he worked to the root of the problem and didn’t just put you in a box as a patient where he just follows the same protocol person to person over and over. He made individualized workouts and exercise programs for me, worked on alterations in movements as needed when my back is enflamed, and overall a great person to talk to. Would HIGHLY recommend!

Liz Friedman

I came to Dr Pare for a lingering hip injury I’d been dealing with for almost two years. He developed a thoughtful treatment plan that was manageable for me and I saw results almost immediately. Dr Pare is patient and really listens to get to the root of the problem. He taught me mobility exercises that I’m confident will keep me feeling good for a long time to come. I strongly recommend Lakeside Spine & Wellness.

Ryan Oliveira

I really enjoyed the care, attention, and education I received from Dr. Pare and the staff here at Lakeside. I can honestly say that after years of dealing with head, jaw, and neck pain, I now have techniques for managing that pain - and even eliminating my jaw pain altogether! They're really committed to working with their patients through exercises and adjustments and I am so grateful for their help. Definitely recommend them!

Tyler Hast

I had such an excellent experience with Dr. Koch! He was able to address my immediate concerns and set me up for future success by giving me tools to maintain the progress we made. I was also able to work with him on tailoring and improving my dead lift form. I have never had a doctor take so much interest in improving as many aspects of my life as he could. I really appreciated the time and energy put in by everyone at Lakeside. Lauren, Hannah, Ken, and Isaac were all a pleasure to meet and work with on my treatment. I wish I could give them 10 stars. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Johanna Jelenek

I didn't think it was possible for a doctor's office to be both equal parts warm and professional until becoming a patient at Lakeside Spine & Wellness. They have found the perfect balance between exceptional care and genuine, thoughtful relationships. After seeing general practitioners for years with no success, I met with Dr. Pare and he alleviated my pain in a matter of weeks. If that's not enough, he also provided education, guidance, and training to prevent the pain from returning and to encourage healthier lifestyle practices. I will forever be grateful to both Dr. Pare and Ken for their kindness, expertise, and ability to heal.

Are you in back pain? Do you feel like you just can not walk from here to the corner without pain? This is your place, don't wait another day. I have been to chiropractors, podiatrists, and physical therapists, all wanting a ton of time and money with minimal results. I walked in to see Dr. Samuel Pare and could barely walk 4 weeks ago and a week later, I felt so much better. I had a set-back after pulling something heavy but after a few days, of doing my "homework" I was back to feeling fine. This is my results and I can't promise you a miracle but if you "do the homework" assigned as I have the last few weeks, then results will happen. I feel so much better, my pain level is very low now and I am walking 30 minutes at a time without pain. This is a major accomplishment since during the pandemic shut-down my pain was a steady 7 level. I am so grateful to Dr. Pare and the amazingly knowledgeable, professional and talented office staff. I have never had such an amazing experience at a chiropractic office before now. PS - You must also get a massage, it's fantastic!

Rachel Aredia

When I first came into Lakeside Spine & Wellness, I could barely get up from sitting or laying down. The pain I had been experiencing was incredible. Dr. Pare was so kind and understanding of the issue. He took the time to explain what was happening and how to fix it. Each exercise he gave me, he would explain how and why the exercise would work to help the pain. Within weeks, between seeing him and getting a massage from Ken, the pain completely dissipated. I cannot recommend Dr. Pare and the wonderful staff enough. Every time I walked in, they were all so welcoming and kind. If you have any pain or need for chiropractic care, this is the place to go to.

Jenna McDonnell

Dr. Koch and the staff at Lakeside Spine & Wellness helped me feel normal again after experiencing back and neck pain. I felt heard, supported, and included in the plan. I would highly recommend this holistic approach to anyone experiencing pain, interested in seeking care and exercises to use at home to keep the pain away!

Stefanie Bandur

Dr. Kiper and his staff are wonderful! I’ve suffered from headaches for over 10 years and found little to no relief with migraine medicine. I noticed headache free days due to Dr. Kiper’s treatment plan for my cervicogenic headaches. Treatment consisted of adjustments, physical therapy, dry needling, and massages. You do need to follow through with the treatment plan to see results. I highly recommend Dr. Kiper for your chiropractic care!

Gabrielle Granoff

I had a great experience here! I was able to be seen quickly and felt like the practitioners I saw (chiropractor and massage therapist) were very professional and made me feel confident in our plan for treatment. I came in with a back injury and started to feel better immediately after the first appointment, and continued to get better with each appointment after. 10/10 would recommend!

Jaime Boas

I started seeing Dr. Kiper in January 2021 due to extreme shoulder and neck pain I was having stemming from my TMJ. In just a few sessions I was feeling so much better and had increased my mobility in my neck, shoulders and upper back. Dr. Kiper doesn't just give you adjustments and send you on your way; he also gives you exercises and lifestyle changes to make at home which will make your progress last long term. Seeing Dr. Kiper actually started a whole wellness journey for me this year and I can't thank him enough for the guidance he provided. I now only go for check-ins every few months because the exercises alone are keeping my TMJ in check. I also highly recommend Ken, the massage therapist, who gives the best deep tissue massages.

Evita Castro

At 36 weeks pregnant, I was told that my baby had flipped into breech position. This was concerning because there were few noninvasive options to turn the baby so close to my due date. My midwife suggested that I try The Webster Method, a chiropractic process that balances the pelvis to invite the baby into a head first position. I had never heard of the technique before and worried that I wouldn’t be able to find a good chiropractor who specialized in the technique on such short notice. Luckily, I discovered Lakeside Spine and Wellness later that same afternoon! The location was within walking distance for me (even at 36 weeks pregnant) and setting up my first appointment was a breeze. I appreciated how friendly the staff was and how quickly I was able to be seen for my issue. I was matched with Dr. Kiper based on his expertise with prenatal patients and The Webster Method. Working with Dr. Kiper was amazing! He was always thoughtful, honest, and very helpful with all of my concerns during the process of encouraging baby to “flip”. After four visits and doing the exercises Dr. Kiper taught me, baby was where she needed to be at my follow up visit and remained there until delivery. No need for an ECV at the hospital! Dr. Kiper’s guidance not only helped me get my baby ready for a safer birth, it also improved my chronic “tech neck” pain and poor sitting posture. His adjustments, along with Ken the incredible massage therapist, definitely improved the quality of my late pregnancy and postpartum comfort. I highly recommend Lakeside! I will also note that the office has undergone renovations and is definitely the most design conscious and superbly tidy chiropractor’s office I’ve visited in Chicago.

Aaisha Banks

After being a patient at a handful of other chiropractor offices over the past few years, I thought I knew what to expect at Lakeside Spine & Wellness. I was actually in for an unexpected, but pleasant surprise. The office itself is warm and welcoming. Brenda (the office coordinator) is sweet, bubbly, and genuine. She always greets me and offers her full attention. Dr. Kiper is super informative and honest. He has given me the tools that I need to help heal my body and consistently feel good even when I am not getting adjustments. This was a shock to me since I've had other chiropractors tell me that I can expect to have back problems the rest of my life and there was nothing that I could do about it. Dr. Kiper has made me feel empowered and taught me how to improve my back/neck issues. I highly recommend this office if you are looking for care with a personal touch and not for an office that is focused on milking you or your health insurance!

Amanda Hlad

I am giving 5 stars for the entire experience. Dr. Pare takes the time to not only treat an individual, but spends time educating his patients and truly listens to one’s concerns. I am grateful for him, Ken (massage therapist), and Brenda. I came in with very sharp lower back pain, and have been improving since seeking help from him. Prior to finding Lakeside, my first experience with chiropractic care was through a corporate ran facility. I spent a lot of money and time with very little relief at the end. I have found with less time and less money spent I have received much better results here, with a much better experience. If you seek relief in an appropriate amount of time with one-on-one doctor patient care, I highly recommend you come to this practice. I feel like an individual here, not a number. I feel I am on a team with Dr. Pare to achieve my health goals. He assessed my issues and formulated a concise treatment plan to have me feeling better. I can say with confidence I am feeling so much better in my daily life tasks and work. As a health care provider myself, I am impressed with their clinic operation, attention to detail, and treatment. They have exceeded my expectations. (Although, I have not been treated by Dr. Kiper, my husband had wonderful results with his care as well.) Thank you Lakeside for creating a comfortable, fun, and professional setting for your patients!

Franklin Walters

Dr. Kiper helped me more with my back pain in eight visits than the hundreds of appointments I had over the past three years with another chiropractic office. His philosophy is to help patients help themselves, rather than keep them coming back for perpetual adjustments. He showed me exercises and simple changes I could make to help promote healing and keep my back pain from recurring. I cannot recommend him highly enough. The massage therapists working here are amazing too. I wish I could have found Lakeside Spine & Wellness much sooner!

Stephany Perez

This was my first experience with a chiropractor and it was a great one. I’ve been seeing Dr. Kiper and I’ve gotten massages from a couple of their massage therapists- the whole team is so wonderful! I feel so much better particularly my back and shoulder pain. I’m also happy they’ve given me some tools and exercises to continue to feel good on my own. I felt really listened to and so safe in terms of coronavirus protocol. Seriously, I highly recommend this place, it was such a nice and easy experience!

Cassandra Sheehan

I have been working with Dr. Pare for several months now and it has been an absolute treat. Not only does he have a great personality, but he is super knowledgeable and effective. I had lower back pain before I started seeing him and the relief of my back pain following visits is remarkable. He always gives great advice and suggestions such as stretches and exercises. I can’t picture going to anyone else but him! I also had the joy of getting a few massages with Santee and she is just amazing made the whole experience super relaxing and comfortable for my awkward self. Scheduling/rescheduling/canceling/payment, all are so convenient with Brenda and Hannah at the front desk they’re both amazing and have such a great vibe. I can’t recommend Lakeside Spine and wellness enough I’ve shared with all my family and friends.

Henna Tran

Dr. Pare and the staff at Lakeside Spine & Wellness showed amazing customer service and every time I visited the office, they were always so joyful and professional with their work. Dr. Pare treated me so well with the most comfortable and expertise treatment plan. I am very satisfied with the whole process of my treatment and am very happy to be pain free!

Jason Hoffman

I came in having no idea what was going on with my back and Dr. Koch helped me understand what was happening and developed a program to help me get back to normal. He listened to everything I had said about my pain and used what I said to give me exercises that I could do at home. I know feel amazing and have been given the tools to get back to normal if the same problem arises in the future!

Grace Martin

Dr. Kiper and his staff are all excellent, and my experience here was wonderful. I went for low back pain from sitting all day as a therapist. Dr. Kiper made a treatment plan for me including adjustments, Thera-gun massage and breath work with an intern, and a lumbar roll and home stretching. After about 6 weeks my pain was resolved!

Katie Leiva

I was referred to Lakeside Spine and Wellness by my trusted doctor Katheryn Gies. After dealing with physical pain related to my job and motherhood. Dr. Pare was able to get to the root cause and teach me fundamental exercises and stretches to alleviate my pain problems. His team was accommodating to my busy work schedule and always presented themselves in a professional manner. I would recommend Lakeside to anyone.

Uriel Ibarra

I came to Lakeside Chiropractic with Dr. Kiper a few weeks ago looking for a solution for my back and shoulder pain. Never having seen a chiropractor before, I wasn't sure what to expect. Fast forward to today, and I can say without a doubt that coming here and taking charge of my health was one of the best decisions I've ever made. While spinal adjustments are certainly a major component, acupuncture and nutrition play supporting roles. Follow your plan, and you will be as good as by the time you finish up all of your appointments. After living with low-to-moderate pain for few years I am completely pain-free today because of Dr. Kiper’s help. So if you are contemplating going or not, I say go. You won't be sorry. Listen to his advice and ask questions. He will give you an idea as to how long recovery will take and he'll recommend a treatment plan designed especially for you and your body. This has improved my quality of life significantly.

German Godoy

Dr. Pare and his team is incredibly professional and talented. I went to physical therapy and a chiropractor before coming here (about 2 years of on and off treatment) and for the first time in a long time, my back pain is gone! Their approach is methodological and well thought-out. Additionally, a feeling I got from previous clinics is that they were mere money-grabs. They’d just pile on as many different treatments they could bill me/my insurance. Completely the opposite here, where they are actually looking to heal you. incredibly lucky I found this place!

C.J. Urban

I was having some pretty intense issues with my back and neck. Having never gone to a chiropractor before I was very nervous, but from the first meeting Dr. Kiper made me feel at ease. I’m happy to say that after a couple weeks I feel amazing, and it’s all thanks to Lakeside Spine and Wellness. I highly recommend!

Marissa Neuman

5/5 experience, can't say enough good thinks about Dr. Pare. He is very thorough with his diagnostic tests, adjustments and therapeutic exercises he provides. Unlike many chiros he genuinely wants his patient's to get better by implementing corrective exercises and a minimal number of treatments. I left feeling SO much better and confident in how to move forward with my physical routines. Highly recommend.

Bryan Blaise

As a busy professional, I was seeking a chiropractor focused on correcting my lower back pain and enabling me to return to my active lifestyle. Dr. Kiper and his entire team at Lakeside Spine & Wellness are wonderful, skilled professionals, who collectively created a program that fit my hectic schedule and efficiently resolved my issue. From the first visit, Dr. Kiper took the time to explain the methodology and his focus on correcting my issue, not merely scheduling an endless set of adjustments. His open and caring style set the tone for each visit and he gave me exercises and tools to accelerate wellness outside of the office, which I practiced first with his assistant Andrew. I also received three massages from Brandon, who is by far the best massage therapist I've ever experienced. He is a master at realigning and relaxing your body. And Joni keeps everything in order, ensuring everything is on time and processed correctly. If you're seeking quality chiropractic care, I highly recommend the team at Lakeside Spine & Wellness.

Alissa Sherwood

I've been going to Dr. Kiper for a few weeks now and been extremely happy with my results! I've been dealing with shoulder and neck pain for a while (I spend 30-40 hours in the car each week) and I've finally been able to get some relief. He's listened to my concerns and has been tailoring the treatment to my specific needs. I've had a knot in my shoulder forever and we did a dry needling session the other day that finally starting to break it up! Couldn't be happier with my experience and will be recommending him to friends and family! Thanks Dr. K :)

Stuart Ross

Dr. Pare is a very caring and attentive doctor who gets to the root of your issues, helps you think about pain in a different way, and keeps you on track for success. The office is a friendly, welcoming environment. I would recommend Lakeside Spine & Wellness to anyone dealing with physical pain.

alison dickerson

Dr. Kiper and the entire staff of lakeside spine and wellness is absolutely fantastic. The past few years I have been suffering from severe neck and back pain which limited my mobility. With the help of Dr. Kiper and his fantastic massage therapists I have regained full mobility and am able to finally enjoy myself again when going out. Would highly recommend to friends and family. Lakeside Spine and Wellness is concerned with helping their patients and reducing the symptoms.

Sarah Williams

Dr. Pare is very knowledgeable and very efficient with your time. He ensures he understands your issues and what is causing the pain, and then gives you solutions to help heal through various exercises. It's a great combination of chiropractic services and quasi-physical rehab. It was great to be given exercises and stretches to do on my own. You are responsible for doing the work at home, but it's great to have those types of exercises in your arsenal when there are flare ups. Highly recommend.

Lawrence J Rodriguez

I have a history of back problems resulting from two very serious car accidents and had managed through many painful relapses through physical therapy and chiropractic care in the past. In February I slipped on some ice and fell down my stairs triggering a referral to an orthopedic surgeon and subsequently to Lakeside Spine & Wellness due to the discovery of loss of motion over time due to my previous back injuries. From the moment I met Dr. Pare and the staff at LSW I was confident I was in the right care. Some physical therapists do not see chiropractic care as a long term form of treatment but the last 20 years have taught me that both are necessary for me. So, I was happy to begin treatment with Dr. Pare knowing that: 1. A wholistic approach was being made in terms of treatment care plan 2. Their goal was for me to be able to heal and improve to the point I could manage ongoing healthy exercises and habits to keep myself healthy and moving without unnecessary follow-ups 3. The staff did not rush me through any process and were thorough in explaining everything involved (insurance/payment, treatment progression, etc.) In the end, I finished 6 weeks of treatment that included massage therapy, physical therapy and chiropractic care that has resulted in better flexibility and range of motion than I have experienced in years and a better understanding of my body and the care it needs. I continue to make gains in my range of motion every day and feel great. I highly recommend Dr. Pare and the team at Lakeside Spine & Wellness and am grateful for my treatment I received.

Blaine Bush

Dr. Kiper and his team are seriously the BEST! I came in for upper back pain that I have been dealing with since I was a teenager, and within two visits, my pain has almost completely subsided. I've been to multiple chiros that treat you like a number; you go in, get adjusted, then leave. Dr. Kiper spends time getting to know you, and then sets up a plan to get you back to your normal self. Well, his plan worked! Thank you, Dr. Kiper!

Kristin Scott

Dr. Kiper and his team at Lakeside Spine & Wellness are the ultimate professionals. I've been to several different chiro's over the years and I've been extremely impressed with him. Dr. Kiper's focus on teaching you the proper techniques for long-term self-care is critical. In a few short visits, he was able to fix my current issue and give me the tools to keep myself healthy. I would definitely recommend!

Kyle Lemire

I had found temporary relief with traditional chiropractors in the past, but my pain kept coming back. It's been totally different with Dr. Kiper. Not only did he reduce my pain much faster than other chiropractors, but the exercises he's given me will make sure I can continue to heal on my own time. I'd recommend him to anyone experiencing long term back pain.

Ben Schmitz

I have been seeing chiropractors since I was 16 and Dr. Kiper is the first one to show me ways to prevent back pain. My first visit was just over three months ago. I have been able to avoid flareups by doing a couple simple daily exercises that Dr. Kiper recommended. I am extremely happy with level of care I receive at Lakeside Spine & Wellness. Dr. Kiper and his staff care a great deal about helping his patients live a pain free life.

Mireya Fouche

Dr. Sam Pare is AMAZING! My jaw encountered trauma that resulted in me having to be on a liquid diet due to limited mobility of my jaw...for 3 months! After seeing several specialists with no success I heard about Lakeside Spine & Wellness. Within the first 2 sessions with Dr. Pare I experienced tremendous progress and became hopeful about the healing journey! With my having a career in speaking, education and foodie (foodie is definitely considered a career to me) regaining full use of my jaw was pertinent. One of the things I appreciate the most (besides progress) is how he takes the time to help me understand the function of my jaw, where the hindrances are happening and the layers we go through in every step as we move forward in gaining full healing. I don't have enough words, nor stars, to express my gratitude for his knowledge and professionalism! Highly Recommended.

Laura Trevis Mobley

Dr. Kiper and his team are amazing and I highly recommend them! I had really bad hip pain due to poor form while lifting weights, which made it difficult to move around easily. Not only did my pain decrease dramatically after the first visit, Dr. Kiper helped me get back to my active lifestyle and normal mobility within a short amount of time. He explains everything really well and gives you exercises you can do at home to help prevent future injuries. Also, the massages by Brandon were amazing! I've never had massages that were so effective.

Courtney George

I have been to many different chiropractors over the years and they have told me some incredibly outlandish things about how adjustments would solve everything from stomach issues to mental clarity....if I continue to go to them for the rest of my life.... Dr. Kiper backs his claims with science and explains everything in a really digestible way. He and his team want to get you the correct care and give you the tools to heal properly as quickly and inexpensively as possible. I think in total my treatment plan was 8 appointments(2 being massages) and even after the first one my pain had decreased tremendously. Throughout treatment I have been given various exercises that I use currently but can also use in the future when my pain reoccurs. On top of that the office has an incredibly friendly/ knowledgeable staff. I also received the best massage I have ever had from Lily(***Google shout out, girl***), I will continue to come back for that even after my treatment ends.

Kyle Stankoskey

I have never received better service at a medical facility than Lakeside Spine and Wellness. After having chronic low and upper back pain from constant sitting, I decided to go see Dr. Kiper and seek help for my pain. Merely after two visits, I noticed a difference and felt better! I previously did not have the best experience at a different chiropractor, so I came to Lakeside Spine and Wellness with a little hesitation. Every single member of that team makes you feel welcomed on your journey to feeling pain free. Dr Kiper creates and plan that is catered towards you specifically and tracks all of your progress. He listens, is thoughtful, and educates you about that is going on throughout the process. Brenda, the front desk manager, makes sure you’re on track with payments, and she even made it easier for me to pay for my treatment by allowing me to enroll in a payment plan. Her services and help go above and beyond. Throughout the treatment process, you get some massages— I had Birgitta twice, and she made me feel so comfortable and focused on the areas on my body that were causing the most pain. She is excellent! Dr. Kiper has a fantastic team that will do everything to make sure you’re feeling better and pain free. I highly recommend them!!! Thank you for helping me get back to being pain free!

Cori Ahrens

I have long had lower back pain... always from lifting weights or doing something in the gym that was likely beyond my capacity. I absolutely love Dr Kiper, as his goal is to ensure you are back to action and you can move to a maintenance plan. Unlike other chiropractors or doctors that just pop you and then you have to come back every week, he listened to me, clearly explained the McKenzie Method, and gave me homework, and I had an 8-session treatment plan, including massage. I was just "discharged" and I feel like I have a great background to prevent this pain from happening again. Thank you to Dr Kiper and the team at Lakeside Spine and Wellness!!

Alison

Dr. Kiper and the team at Lakeside Spine and Wellness are so positive and knowledgeable! Dr. Kiper has spent time teaching and providing me with the tools I need to work through my healing process post yoga injury. After practicing the exercises he has given me, I have regained a significant amount of range of motion in my neck and have gained more awareness on how the body works. He has made it simple for me to find the resources he has recommended to help speed up the process to becoming well, and staying well. He is genuinely passionate about what he does and it shows through our interactions! Lily, a massage therapist, paid close attention to my needs and used the perfect amount of pressure for me post injury…my pain was almost entirely unnoticeable the day after my last massage! (And let's face it, who doesn't love chiropractic care that includes massage!) Definitely recommend!

Peggy Sutor

Dr. Pare is terrific! He's very knowledgeable, thorough, caring and easy to work with. He has a thoughtful, holistic approach to treatment. Dr. Pare spent a lot of time listening, asking clarifying questions about my injury, and then putting together a treatment plan, customized to my needs. He taught me strengthening techniques targeting areas of concern, and he was creative of how I could use materials that I already had at home to avoid spending money on equipment. Very thoughtful. Mastering these techniques and making them a part of my daily life has helped me take control of my health in the long run. It's a very empowering method of treatment, and one I would highly recommend. Every member of the team was responsive and easy to work with. There was consistency in the high quality of care that I received. If this is important to you, then look no further. I highly recommend Lakeside Spine & Wellness.

Katelyn Kulesa

I came to Dr. Pare after already having an awful experience with another chiropractor. I was wary, to say the least. But the team really did a lovely job to create a personalized treatment plan and subsequent payment plan. Not only did I appreciate the clinic in a professional sense; I also enjoyed personally chatting and getting to know Dr. Pare and his staff during the months I've been going there. 11/10 stars, would recommend (and have recommended).

Julian Suar

I've been going to chiropractors my entire life. Recently, I really messed up my neck and was going to different chiropractors for 3 months. I decided to try one more and luckily it was Dr. Kiper. First off, the receptionist is awesome and super nice. Second off, Dr. Kiper really knows his stuff. He uses a different Chiropractic method that is about healing yourself and makes it so you don't have to come to the chiropractor non-stop. After hurting for several months, I'm now 3 weeks or so into my healing process with Dr. Kiper and my pain is almost completely gone. 5 stars isn't enough to describe my experience. There's a reason 99% of his reviews are 5 stars.

Andrew Burleson

Dr. Kiper did a great job reducing my symptoms and teaching me ways to be proactive and preventative in my care for my lower back. I would definitely recommend seeing him and I've referred him to friends already! It's a nice change of pace from the "lifelong pain" I'd heard from other people.

Krista Kleban

I came to Dr. Kiper a couple months ago due to terrible pain, lost range of movement and dramatically reduced strength in my shoulder. Initially, I was reluctant to visit a chiropractor, because my body does not typically respond well to the sudden movements that are customary with most chiropractic adjustments. I made an appointment with Dr. Kiper after reading his many five star Google reviews from patients who described him as the opposite of any chiropractor I had ever been to or heard about, and I am so glad I did. I was not looking for a chiropractor who would want to adjust me twice a week indefinitely. My goal was to find a chiropractor who would actually help me heal, which Dr. Kiper did. Not only does he take a much gentler, yet effective approach to the adjustments he does, he also provides patients with tools for self care and future injury prevention. Initially, a treatment plan may seem expensive, but when you consider that your pain can be eliminated in a matter of a couple months, and you walk away understanding how to keep yourself from ending up with the same injury again, it is much more cost effective than visiting another chiropractor multiple times a week indefinitely. Also, deep tissue massages are available to patients, and I can honestly say that I have never had a massage that was as effective as the one I had here. It eliminated all the knots in my back and neck and helped me regain additional motion in my shoulder. If you are looking for a chiropractor who truly wants to see you recover quickly, I cannot recommend Dr. Kiper enough! I hope he can help you as much as he has helped me.

Amy Tardi

Dr. Kiper and the entire team at Lakeside Spine and Wellness provide exceptional treatment and service. It starts with Brenda the Office Manager who is super warm and friendly and extremely helpful. It is a very welcoming environment. Dr. Kiper is 5 stars and by far the best chiropractor I have ever seen. After seeing a few other doctors in previous years, I assumed it would be the same old treatment. I did a google search and read so many amazing reviews that I had to check this place out. I absolutely made the right decision. Dr. Kiper is extremely knowledgeable and attentive, and his goal is to ensure that his patients have a treatment plan that actually works. He provides extensive education and information on why pain the pain occurs and how to treat and prevent it from returning. I can’t say nice enough words about this practice, highly recommend. A big thank you to Dr. Kiper and the team at Lakeside Spine and Wellness!

Herman Little

My back issues had been a constant struggle for over 6 years. But was even more frustrating were the constant change of instructions from the various chiropractors. I changed doctors a few times due to relocations, but none of them were able to isolate the real issue. It was just the ongoing adjustments which continued to more medical bills. I was a little concerned with Dr. Kiper at the the beginning because there was no adjusting or immediate pain relief. But I soon realized that his approach was different. His goal was not temporary but instead wanted to include me in the process to initiate long-term corrective actions . Three months later, I feel so much better. But I am even more educated on the cause of my back pain. The entire wellness team of professionals were absolutely amazing! Dr. Kiper structured a comprehensive plan that involved multiple members of his team that addressed the issue from various angles. For me: This experience has been life-changing!!!

Hannah Rosenhain

Dr. Kiper is incredible. Where other chiropractors keep you on the hook for months (or years) with all sorts of treatments that never totally get rid of the pain, Dr. Kiper fixes the problem. I had lower back pain and sciatica and had seen a few chiropractors before Dr. Kiper, but I never felt like my lower back problem was fixed, and the pain would always come back. I decided to try Dr. Kiper because of the wonderful things I'd heard about him and because my pain was getting really bad. At our first appointment, he explained to me why I was having pain, what my pain meant, and how we would fix it together. After my appointment, he gave me one easy exercise to do at home. I started feeling my sciatica disappear within 2 days. By the end of the week, I had no sciatica and my lower back pain had gone down from a 7 to a 2 in severity. I'm ending my second week under Dr. Kiper's care, and I feel like I don't have to worry about my lower back pain anymore; we're fixing it. Because of that, I would highly recommend Dr. Kiper.

Kate O'Brien

Highly recommend Dr. Pare and Lakeside Spine & Wellness! I've seen several chiropractors in the past (and was referred to Lakeside by my previous chiro when I moved to Chicago), but Dr. Pare's approach is entirely different. I was used to regular visits every 4-6 weeks, but Dr. Pare seeks much more permanent solutions that eliminate the need to keep coming back in for adjustments. I was given a robust treatment plan with regular exercises and best practices which has given me the tools to maintain my back health and to course-correct when needed. Overall my pain has reduced significantly and I feel so much more knowledgable and well-equipped to prevent any pain in the future. I'm at the end of my treatment plan now and honestly very sad that I don't have a reason to keep coming back in!!

Kate Widman

I went in with a lot of unexplainable back pain and everything I was doing to fix it was making it worse, so I was referred to Dr. Kiper and with every session it has improved an insane amount. He is incredibly knowlegable and knows exactly what is right for pain just in one session. Everyone that works here is so nice and VERY smart when it comes to back pain. Highly recommend!

Nina Bryson

Dr. Kiper is amazing! I came to my first visit with extreme discomfort in my lower back and left feeling relieved in one session! His practice is friendly, easy to find, clean and professional. I will forever be grateful he's showed me how to properly relieve my pain.

Ute Tegtmeyer

I was a mess when I called Dr. Kiper to make an appointment: I thought my hip was messed up, my neck pain was beyond repair, and my Achilles tendinitis was not fixable. Little did I know! Dr Kiper was able to relief my pain within a couple of visits. He thoroughly explained how things are connected with each other and showed me a few simple exercises to get rid of most of my problems. He really cares about his patient’s long term wellbeing. What other chiropractors were not able to accomplish in years, he could fix in a few weeks!

Nick Paavola

I had been ignoring a minor back injury for a couple months, hoping it would get better. (It didn't.) I went to see Dr Kiper at Lakeside and found the treatment and advice helpful - I feel back to normal now! Also, it was always easy to get an appointment at a convenient time, which I appreciated.

Amy Greenlee

I was pleased with the help from Dr. Kiper. His office does a great job targeting the needs that the clients bring forward as well as assess the body if there are any connected areas that could be contributing to the tension. He gives exercises which help strengthen ones body and make it so that their body can heal itself. Also, I absolutely loved the massage I received targeting the area in my body (left back/ shoulder) which needed the most assistance.

Marycruz A

I’ve been working with Dr. Pare for several months and and it’s been a great experience. The entire team is very friendly from the moment you walk in the door. Dr. Pare is very personable and knowledgeable. He took the time to understand my lifestyle and incorporate exercises that fit well into my lifestyle. He also takes the time to explain in detail what the assigned exercises will work and why he chose them. I would highly recommend Dr. Pare and this clinic without question!

Kate Gallagher

I was able to get in to see Dr Kiper the same day I finally decided I needed to do something about my chronic back pain. By teaching me the right moves, Dr Kiper is helping me slowly work back to complete back health. The staff is friendly, efficient and competent. Highly recommend!

jason clarke

Of all my years of going to a chiropractor I am glad I finally found Dr. Kiper. His goal isn't for you to become a lifelong patient. He wants to cure you and allow you to go back to enjoying life injury-free. After he cured me I immediately referred him my wife he is also 110% impressed with what he has done for her neck. He has a massage therapist on hand who specializes in deep tissue and again is the best I've ever been to. He works well with most insurance providers and they are great at doing a pre-check for you in that regard.

Stu Newstat

Thanks to Lakeside Spine and Dr. Pare, I was able to finish the Chicago Marathon. I came in with strong pain in my achilles, but Dr. Pare was able to alleviate that pain with his expertise and guidance. For any runners reading this, Dr. Pare gets it and is able to get you healthy to your next starting line.

Scarlett Angelo

I'm so glad I made an appointment with Dr. Pare! My chronic neck and back pain was wose than ever (I've been sitting a lot more than usual due to quarantine), and after seeing Dr. Pare for a few sessions and doing my homework of various stretches, I am pain-free. I never thought that was a possibility. He gave me maintenance exercises/stretches to do so that hopefully I won't find myself in the same position. He was thorough and knew exactly what I needed to start feeling better. The office manager Brenda is very friendly and the office itself is great and there's plenty of parking. I can't recommend Lakeside Spine & Wellness enough!

Iwona Bies

I am so glad I have found Lakeside Spine & Wellness. Dr Kiper is wonderful, honest, thorough, no nonsense kind of doctor. He treats the root of your injuries instead of constantly adjusting your spine when not really needed. I showed up with a variety of issues: tight upper back, pain in mid back and lower back, and plantar fasciitis. After only four visits, my lower back pain is gone, the upper and mid back feels so much better, and my plantar fasciitis is almost gone. Mind you, I have had PF for 12 months now and gone though variety of treatments, including steroid- non of it worked. There is no magic pill involved here. Dr Kiper teaches you exercises meant to heal your injuries. All it takes for a successful recovery is to follow his instructions. I highly recommend Dr Kiper and his practice to everyone.

Natasha Murphy

Dr. Kiper explained what was causing my pain better than any other Doctor I have seen in the past 2 1/2 years. I've spent over a year doing physical therapy during 2 different periods, was treated by another chiropractor, have seen doctors at both Northwestern and RIC and received an injection for pain management. His explanation of both my pain and what I need to do to eliminate it finally made sense to me. Dr. Kiper has a sincere passion for what he does and for his patients. I have only been to his office twice now in the past few days, but the exercises he has given me provides more relief for my pain than other exercises I've been given since my injury 2 1/2 years ago.

Anita

I've had a great time at Lakeside Spine and Wellness! Joanie is a delight every time I'm here and is super helpful when I need to reschedule. Dr. Kiper is great and I appreciate his honesty. He won't waste your time or money, and will let you know if he can help you or not based off of the symptoms you're presenting with. I'd highly recommend! AND GET A MASSAGE WITH LILY, you'll fall asleep after being so relaxed (speaking from personal experience, lol) and you won't regret it!!

Jessica Lee

Dr. Kiper and the staff at Lakeside Spine are incredible. He not only provides treatment, but education on why pain occurs, why and how to treat it and how to prevent it in the future. Scheduling and insurance billing is always seamless. I should have sought out chiropractic care sooner, but I'm glad my procrastination led me to this practice.

Nicole Besa

Dr. Kiper is totally professional, knowledgeable, and caring with his patients. I was experiencing chronic pain in my lower back and hip for over five years. I had tried several different treatments before Dr. Kiper, but my chronic pain seemed to be a tricky case to treat. Dr. Kiper made sure to listen to properly monitor my symptoms and adjust my treatment plan so we could make progress in centralizing and then eliminating pain. He doesn't waste his patients time, and is a no gimmicks chiropractor. The McKenzie Method that he specializes in is also particularly effective, and he really knows what he's talking about.

Joan Gatz

Lakeside Spine and Wellness has a very caring and attentive chiropractor, Dr. Andrew Kiper who practices the McKenzie Therapy Method. This method involves the patient being involved in healing themselves with his direction, adjustments and patience. After six visits over 3 months, not only am I pain free, I also know how to stay that way using the exercises Dr. Kiper prescribed. This is much better than taking pain medicine.

Stephanie Cappello

I've been seeing Dr Kiper for about a month and a half now and I've been feeling way better. I feel like he gets to the point and really tries to help you out. If he feels like he can't, he won't waste your time or money which is super comforting. If you are feeling pain definitely set up an appointment

Chantal Lindsay

Dr. Kiper's treatment is unlike any other. Just 2 weeks before my wedding I was having a lot of neck pain with associated weakness and numbness down my left arm to hand. I couldn't workout which is what I love to do. I thought I was headed for surgery! In just a few short weeks I was feeling better and able to move my head for my wedding! And now, I am exercising just like I always have. I am so happy to have strength and be pain free again! My only regret is that I didn't see him sooner!

Zhenqi Ong

Dr. Kiper is one of a few chiropractors in the city who uses the McKenzie method, which involves a process of finding and doing movements that will help your body heal and regain flexibility and full range of motion. As he explains it, it is a collaborative treatment plan - the patient has to make the effort in order to see results, and the goal is to achieve more long-term healing. Using movement to heal chronic pain makes a lot of sense to me. I have chronic back and neck pain, and Dr. Kiper has really taken the time to understand where the problem is and finding the right exercise that works for me, as there is no one-size-fits-all solution. He makes sure to explain to me the why's and how's, and really cares about getting his patients' pain reduced and situations improved. If you have chronic pain, I would recommend going for a consultation with Dr. Kiper, and going in with an open mind.

Dr. Kiper is fantastic! He tells you like it is and is truly interested in your well being. I'm a full time server so my body is out whack and always in pain. With a few magic exercises, he has helped me cut out almost all the pain medication I was taking! (I've only seen him twice so far!) Can't wait to see what I feel like once my treatment plan is done! Oh, did I mention he has tons of flexible payment plans?! I have insurance with a very high deductible so Dr. Kiper helped me tremendously with an affordable payment plan. I am very happy I took the chance and randomly walked into his office! Please, do your body a favor and let yourself be pain free!

Sydney Garver

Dr. Kiper was amazing! This was the second time I had suffered from TMJ and within a month or so I was back to normal. All the staff from the office staff to the massage therapists were all so welcoming and made for such a great experience. I would highly recommend this local practice to absolutely anyone.

Elizabeth Uchiyama

Pain Free In Just A Few Visits! A wrong move in yoga class revealed lingering effects from an accident I experienced in 2016. Inflamation, pain, and an inability to turn my head led me to seek treatment. Although I have insurance, I went to Dr. Kiper, who was out of my network, because he said he wanted to treat me in minimal time with maximal results. True to his word, he gave me exercises and homework to do, which I followed to the letter, and I am feeling perfectly well in only 8 visits. He is focused. His offices are clean and calm. His staff is positive and professional while making you feel valued. Everyone is working toward your wellness goals. Be on time, be ready to do your part and you will not regret working with this wonderful team.

I'm in my early 30s and have considered myself always an active healthy person. I have never experienced back pain before, and was truly scared. I thought oh it would just get better I'm young. The incident happened at the end of May 2020 in the midst of COVID after picking up a planter full of dirt that was clearly too heavy. I held off getting help due to concerns of employment. The symptoms got better at the end of July for a couple months then they came back and were creeping in to back where I was in the beginning, not able to walk, dizziness, weakness and excruciating back pain. I decided to get help. Went to an orthopedic specialist who took and X-ray, and determined I had not broken bones but it was a simple muscle strain. I knew it wasn't a strain I had strained my back before and many other muscles on my body. I felt defeated and didn't know what to do. I didn't want to get the run around again with Doctors as I had in the past so I trusted myself and reached out to Lakeside Spine & Wellness. I was worried about not knowing what the cost would be and Brenda in the office was very kind to be patient with me and explain to me how the pricing would be as it depended on the work that was done at each appointment and took it a step further to double check my insurance and let me know the max that I would have to pay out of pocket. They were willing to accommodate a payment plan and ensure I got well. She even suggested I have an introductory call with Dr. Kiper before scheduling as he offered this free of charge to see if he would be able to help me. He was able to reassure me that trusting myself and being my own advocate was the right thing to do. He said he believed for me to have a bulging disc that was causing me the discomfort which is something he specializes in and is treatable, it can be fixed. I needed this and was happy to visit his office. He immediately knew what was wrong after listening to me...something the orthopedic specialist didn't do. Although he did say there could be a couple other things he was sure this was the reason I was experiencing what I was for the past 5 months. He said he would know if he could help me within 3 visits and if it wasn't working he would refer me to the person who would be able to help me. This confidence and character was the best I had seen with a medical professional in my life. I felt in good hands and I am happy to say that I am better after 5 visits to Dr. Kiper. He uses MDT (mechanical diagnosis and therapy). HE uses your body to tell him what is wrong with you and how to fix it, along with giving you the tools to take with you to continue to take care of yourself throughout your life. I am blessed to have found Dr. Kiper!

Christine Roberts

Before treatment at Lakeside Spine & Wellness, I was very skeptical of chiropractors. My misgivings were eased by Dr. Kiper's emphasis on teaching me how to care for myself. Additionally, as delightful as the team at Lakeside is, I really appreciated that the goal was for me to be discharged from their care. Within weeks of my car accident, I was not just "better" or "fine," but back to the active lifestyle I value.

Jessica Tuba

I came in for Neck Pain & the exercises and self care Dr. Kiper has taught me have been great. I brought in my whole family after I started seeing a difference and feeling better. They all love coming to him. Staff is great as well!

Aaron Gottlieb

Dr. Kiper has helped me so much. I came to him with both upper and lower back pain. My lower back pain has been with me for many years. I have seen many chiropractors previously with little success. In a few short visits Dr. Kiper has reduced my pain dramatically and has given me a plan to keep the pain away moving forward. Thank you so much Dr. Kiper!

Brian Harder

There is a reason for all of the the 5-Star ratings. This place was a random find after my regular chiropractor closed up and moved away, not telling anyone and leaving me in the lurch. My Google search led me here, to Lakeside Spine and Wellness. And it has been the most wonderful find in my many years of treating my back pain. Now, in the spirit of full disclosure, I wasn't really in 'severe' pain at the time I found Dr. Kiper. I was having just enough pain that I thought a "maintenance visit" was what I needed from my former chiropractor. But when I met Dr. Kiper, I was given a brand new outlook on the "industry of chiropractic", and this is where the education and treatment I received from Dr. Kiper made a profound difference. Dr. Kiper and his staff taught me how to heal myself. I know that sounds silly, but after I learned about the McKenzie Method, this is what I did. McKenzie is a COMPLIMENT the chiropractic treatments Dr. Kiper provides and is a kind of self physical therapy. I was given a few specific exercises to do that addressed my specific issues and over time, these exercises along with my care and the on-site massage (also wonderful) provided me an exceptional healing journey. Maintenance is now something I can do myself without feeling tied to chiropractic and continued financial expenditures. It has been three months since I last saw Dr. Kiper. I purposefully waited to write this review to make sure I wasn't writing it while "feeling good" after a visit. I wanted to make sure the effects were long term as Dr. Kiper said they could be. I haven't had any problems since. And when things start to act up just a little bit, I simply have to do these exercises for a day or two to get back into to form. I know I will need to see him again at some point. New issues will arise or something will happen, but when it does, I will trust my instincts and make sure I visit Lakeside Spine and Wellness for care. Beyond the care, the staff is excellent and friendly. I actually miss seeing them but am glad I don't have to. Give them a try. If you don't like them, you can go somewhere else. But if you do go, I bet you will one day write a 5-star review for Lakeside Spine and Wellness just like this one.

Jack Byam

Mid 30s and came in for back and neck issues mostly due to working in an office with poor posture. Dr. Pare solved all my issues in about 4 visits and focuses on self maintenance techniques that allow the work being done to have staying power so you don’t need continue coming in. I also have had about 5 massages there and all had me leave the office feeling like brand new. They also have a system for appointment reminders by text and email so it’s easy to not miss a session or if you made an error/forgot the time to confirm without having to call in. Highly recommend this group and the staff who coordinates the appointments are absolutely wonderful.

José Ortiz

Great experience with Dr. Pare, he's very knowledgeable and is good about working with you on reaching your goals. I'm a runner and he helped me get some knots out of my shoulders and gave me some good movements to help. So far, it's been great. Would recommend working alongside him without hesitation. Thanks Dr. Pare for everything.

Ricky Bole

Based on previous experience with chiropractors in the past, I was skeptical of having my back pain treated. I went to Dr. Kiper to work on smoking cessation, but, after some discussion, he assuaged my concerns. In only a few visits, I was feeling pain-free for the first time in many years. And I'm on the verge of quitting smoking. Dr. Kiper is awesomesauce.

Paige Jacoby

I found Dr Kiper and Lakeside Spine and Wellness after seeing a primary care physician and two specialists for my pain. I was having acute neck, back and hip pain that the other doctors were having real problems diagnosing. I was in pain, defeated and convinced that I would just have to live this way. Dr Kiper was warm, knowledgeable and genuinely cared about solving my issues. After one visit he knew exactly what was happening, and I can’t thank this team enough for giving me my life back. Thank you, Lakeside Spine and Wellness!

Luke H

Lakeside helped me recover from a neck injury rapidly. They gave me the information i need to maintain my spine health without returning to a chiropractor. Dr kiper is attentive and thorough. Highly recommend!

Nathaniel Mitchell

My experience with Dr Kiper was nothing short of amazing. He really took the time to educate me and didn’t keep me on a perpetual plan just to make money. I’ve had back issues since high school and I finally feel like I’m educated to start living a preventative lifestyle.

Anca Williams

I went in with really bad upper and lower back pain, and in couple of sessions I was feeling like a new person. Pain significantly diminished, also I have learned what type of exercises are going to keep me away from experiencing this discomfort again. Thank you! Dr. Kipper for all you do, and Thank you! Santee and Ken for those great massages. Brenda does a great job at running the office in a very smoothly manner. Thank you and take care!

Courtney Mitchell

I highly recommend Dr. Kiper, he is concise and clear in his communication and instructions. I had been having issues for years with my neck and never realized that there were remedies for someone like me. You're never too young for preventative maintenance. Office staff are warm and professional and massage therapists are top notch.

James Bova

I have been having minor back issues for the past couple years and for the most part it was only a minor issue and if it ever did get too bad, I was able to take some ibuprofen. With the pandemic, I was working from home more often and was experiencing the pain more often and was taking ibuprofen way more frequently than I felt comfortable with. I decided that I needed to get professional help and stop playing guessing game about what was going on. I went to Dr. Pare and we were able to quickly identify the issue and set up a routine to address the issue. I am very happy with the results and highly recommend their services to anyone experiencing back issues.

Gina Rizzo

I love Dr Kiper's approach of helping you to heal yourself. His strategies are meant to put you on a path of improved mobility rather than merely maintaining a restricted or misaligned form. Instead of putting a band-aid on the pain, he seeks to get to the root of it and give you the tools to bring your body back to the state it's meant to be. He truly cares about your recovery & wellness for the long term.

Richard Dolphin

Dr Mendez and Ken are great! On top of outstanding care, the office team is very accommodating with scheduling.

John Gockman

I consider myself lucky to have happened upon Dr. Kiper. First off, I am an R.N. and, because of that, I don't often hear many people in the hospital speaking the virtues of the chiropractic practice. That said, Dr. Kiper is not your typical chiropractor. He is thoughtful and approaches his patients holistically. He doesnt just make spinal adjustments for the sake of doing so. If he doesnt think you will benefit from an adjustment then he wont do it. Instead, he will approach you as a physical therapist would by incorporating the acclaimed McKenzie method, and in doing so, achieves impressive results. If you have the means, I highly recommend checking out Dr. Kiper.

Jonathan Adam Evans

Dr Koch was very knowledgable and was able to knock out all of my issues through corrections and guidance around exercises I should be doing between visits. It worked like a charm! He's very skilled and great at helping you understand the problem and solutions! 10/10!

Alex

I would strongly recommend Dr. Kiper's practice for even the most minor of back injuries. I pinched some tissue in my lower back and was unable to move for weeks. Within just a few treatments and proper take home exercises, Dr. Kiper had me feeling 100% in under a month!

Laura G

Everyone who works in an office should see Dr. Kiper! I started suffering from non-stop headaches and after several visits to the doctor and ENT doctor, I was still left with no answers as to where my headaches were coming from. They had seemingly appeared out of thin air. After a few visits with Dr. Kiper my neck and head started feeling better. A combination of poor posture and basically doing all the wrong things for my spine was to blame. Dr. Kiper straightened me out and I’m back to feeling like myself again. He is super nice, intelligible and trys to educate you on how to better take care of yourself. Everyone who works there is also super friendly and I’m always greeted with a smile. It will be a sad day when I am discharged and no longer have the pleasure of seeing all those wonderful people at Lakeside Spine and Wellness!

J R

had a great experience with lakeside spine and wellness! everyone i interacted with was friendly and covid conscious, and brenda at he front desk was always absolutely lovely and understanding about working with my weird schedule. dr. koch is a spine magician- i could barely sleep my back and neck hurt so much when i first came in, but now not only am i feeling much better, but i learned how to take care of myself better long-term! thanks y'all!

Hugo Sanchez

Amazing experience, from my first appointment to my last. I had lower back pain and minimum range of motion due to a buldging disc. After just a couple of sessions I've noticed progress and by the end I was pain free and now I have my full range of motion. I would 100% recommend Dr. Kiper!

Mike Kennedy (Neurobellum)

I'd never been to a chiro before, but after doing something wicked to my lower back during a recent move, was desperate to find immediate help. Dr Kiper's reputation and reviews proved well-deserved, and after just a few weeks of coaching, adjustment, and guidance, I'm good as new (well, as new as a 50 year old is ever gonna feel...)

Heather McCambly

After ten years of sometimes-debilitating chronic headaches and shoulder pain, which included being treated by general practitioners, physical therapists, sports medicine doctors, and other chiropractors, Dr. Kiper was able in the course of a week to stop my pain and teach me over the next two months how to self treat to heal and prevent future recurrence (and future treatment). If you're feeling hopeless about some form of chronic pain, please come give him a shot. It could be life changing!

gary boots

I’ve had severe back pain and sciatica for the last four years. I have gone through physical therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture and various medications without much results. Within two weeks of visiting Dr. Kiper and his staff I feel that 20 years have been added to my life. I am in no longer in crippling agonizing pain. I am forever grateful to the education that the doctor provided me

Katie G

Dr. Koch was very knowledgeable and had great bedside manner. He didn't just treat my symptoms, he and his staff educated me on the causes and preventative measures. They were able to get me to a pain-free place in a pretty short time in just a few visits.

tyler markus

Dr. Kiper quickly evaluated me and my sore back. In a few visits my back and leg were feeling much better. He also gave me some excersiese and tips for while I'm at work to avoid injuring myself while working. With Dr. Kiper's care and at home exercises my pain resolved and in no time I was back at work.

Asher Levine

Dr. Kiper was fantastic. He took the time to explain to me what was wrong, how that affected my body, what I'd need to do to fix it and how that all worked. I've been to many doctors before who get you in and try and get you out as fast as possible. Dr. Kiper was not like that at all. He asked if I had questions and did a great job explaining them when I did. On top of that, his adjustment really helped my issues and I can already feel an improvement.

Adam Fletter

Having been in a labor-intensive job for nearly two decades, I'd convinced myself that back pain was just a part of my everyday life. I legitimately didn't know that relief was an option, but after only a handful of appointments at Lakeside, we were able to customize a stretching regimen specific to my issues that has me feeling years younger and working more effectively.

Dongsoo Park

Dr. Kiper, Joni, and the rest of the staff at Lakeside are amazing and some of the friendliest healthcare professionals I have dealt with! Went to Lakeside with chronic stiffness/pain in back/shoulder/neck and the doctors treatment plan really helped me get better. I really appreciate how they focus on treating you so that you won't experience ailments in the future. Highly recommend!

Milan Tvardek

Dr. Kiper is the bomb. ACTUAL ~science based~ practice that will rehab your issue in no time. He clearly knows what he's doing and has a great rapport. I've never met someone I didn't like in his office. And his massage therapist, Lily, is a magician.

Miguel Sanchez

I went from having severe back pain to no pain at all. Dr.Kiper gives you the knowledge and information on how to heal your injury. I am now able to do my daily activities and exercise pain free. Definitely would recommend to someone experiencing low back pain or other injuries!

Daniel Pizano

First thing first Great vibe and very professional. Before coming here I had issues with sport injuries and once I sat down with Dr. Koch explained what was going on. He explained in detail what he will be doing and how long the recovery process will be. I left this place with new information and daily exercise to help continue with my treatment. That being said I would highly recommend this place to everyone!

Jean Broaddus

I decided to come here as I was having numbness in my hand for several weeks. Dr Kiper didn't do any adjustments on the first visit, only educated me on what was happening and gave me some exercises to do at home and at work to fix the issue. After the first visit my back and neck felt so much better and the numbness in my hand was gone!

Mark Ryan

After years of neck and back pain I finally found a solution. I have unsuccessfully tried chiropractors, physical therapy, massages and medication. But now I found relief all in one spot. Dr. Kiper is very knowledge and patient and tailors a treatment program to suit your needs. I highly recommend visiting Lakeside Chiropratic and Wellness.

Tyler W

My wife and I have been going to Lakeside Spine & Wellness for several months now and we are both very satisfied with our overall experience. Absolutely everyone that I've met at Lakeside Spine & Wellness has been extremely professional and friendly. If you are thinking about making an appointment, don't hesitate! Lakeside is a wonderful business that is run by wonderful people!

Olin Eargle

Dr. Kiper seems like more of a wellness doctor than a Chiropractor, and knows what he is talking about. He asks questions, does adjustments and stretches like no other Chiro I've ever gone to. I have liked my experience thus far very much.

Dylan Ward

I was always skeptical about chiropractors, but Dr. Pare and his team really helped me feel so much better. Using holistic, practical approaches as well as educating me on practices that I can implement to make sure I don't have to keep coming back was great. Thank you!!

Steph Pelzer

Dr. Kiper is fantastic! He listened to all my concerns and found the best treatment plan for me. Finally pain free! Thank you so much, you’re the best.

Nik Gemini

Dr. Pare is thorough, detail oriented, results driven, and more importantly, he cares for your well being. Five star! ..and Im glad I picked them for my chiropractor needs.

Cody Shipp

Dr. Pare took me from being bed ridden to working out within 3 weeks. Being an active gym member this was crucial to me feeling like my quality of life was in tact. can't say enough for all of the teams help!

Courtney Cech

It's too bad these things have a character limit. Otherwise, this review would be never-ending with positive comments. In short, Dr. K. is fantastic. He strives to teach you non-invasive self-care techniques to keep you pain-free and out of his office. He's not about scheduling endless visits for a steady stream of income and unfortunately, this is the exception, not the rule in this field. As an out of network provider for my insurance, he even discounted my visits - every single one of them. All of his staff members are superheroes, too.

Jordan Kelley

Dr. Kiper and team were really helpful with neck and headache issues I was having. Not only was I able to find helpful relief, but I was also able to learn how to manage these issues going forward.

Jake Wagner

Amazing staff that works with you and your budget! I would recommend to anybody feeling any sort of body discomfort.

Megan Green

I have been going to chiropractors for years, and thought it was the only way for temporary relief. With Dr. Kiper's treatment and exercises I am completely pain free - it's amazing!

Jamie Blanke

I saw Dr. Pare after a fall triggered some neck pain. He was a great help. Muscle work + chiropractic adjustments all in one. Highly recommend.

Patrick Slattery

Cannot recommend this place any more highly. Dr. Pare must be some sort of knee wizard. I limped into our first session and walked out. The time it took to see results and feel relief was faster than I've ever experienced.

Whitney Bush

Dr. Kiper is friendly, thorough, and no-nonsense, and even after just a couple of visits, I can feel a real difference! Highly recommended if you are experiencing any kind of pain.

Ted Fournier

Dr. Kiper quickly identified my issue and put a program in place to address it through corrective activities that will not make me rely on visits to him for the rest of my life. This is is a must explore if you're having any physical issues.

Jason Messinger

Great staff that really listened and addressed and then solved my problem, that four other places could not solve! Highly recommended.

Evan Bravos

Dr. Kiper and the staff at Lakeside Wellness are absolutely top-notch. Fabulous care and a thorough step-by-step education on long-term self care. Highly recommended! Thank you Dr. Kiper and Lakeside Wellness!

Halle

I was recommended to Dr Kiper from a friend and I can't thank her enough for it. He truly cares about the patients needs and does tremendous work after just one visit. I highly recommend seeing him!

Yama Rahim

I'd been having knee, shoulder, and back issues for months prior to my first visit, but then following the plan I was given and coming in for weekly checkups helped get me all fixed up within a few weeks. Highly recommend trying out this thorough, well-organized, and effective institution!

איילה לוין

I highly recommend Dr. Kiper. His method is result-oriented and highly effective. In addition to resolving my issue I learnt how to preempt future injuries. The staff is professional and friendly. It was a pleasure coming to the office.

Kyle Russell

Dr Kiper and the staff is wonderful! He treated me for a 3-year ongoing shoulder and neck pain and it’s gone. Definitely go see him!

Michael Ruebensam

I went in with really bad back pain and with their help and the tools they showed me to continue my healing at home my back is a whole lot better then before. The staff is the most friendliest staff you will come across and very knowledgeable.

Kalebs Smits

Dr. Sam Pare is awesome - would highly suggest anyone with backpain to visit him at Lakeside, he will work with you and make your life painless!

Nicole Stanley

I was physically out of sorts after a year of staying home/working from home/not moving enough. I called in desperation and couldn’t be happier that I did. Months later and I can’t believe how simply good I feel. I will be a customer for a long time to come.

Maribel Garcia

Very professional team. Everyone is very nice and welcoming. Dr Christian was very kind and helped me so much with my back issues. I would highly recommend to anyone

Niv Klainer

Dr. Kiper is an excellent physician. He’ll keep you off google for a while because he’s so knowledgeable.

Denise Rondini

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I started seeing improvement from the first visit. Best of all, Dr. Kiper taught me what I can do to prevent the problem from recurring.

Sasa Velikic

Dr. Kiper is the best chiropractor in Chicago for sure! He helped me a lot!

Katie Rouse

I have been going to Lakeside for about a week now and have already seen marked improvement in just a few visits. One of the better, more solutions focused chiropractors I have been to

Uch M

Very hospitable and professional practice! I previously had back and knee pain, and in a matter of weeks the pain was gone. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience!

Regan Steigleder

Such a great place with fantastic doctors and front desk members (Clayton and Dr. Mendez were amazing!). I had a knee issue that had been persisting for months and Dr. Mendez solved it completely from a lower back nerve problem. I’m a professional athlete so she completely helped my career!
