"Hi – this is Barbara Novakovich calling.  I was calling because I wanted to say how well Dr. Ron Daulton, Jr. has helped me with my shoulder issues – I’ve had them since a car accident – and subsequent neck issues as well. 

I went to a chiropractor for a year to try to resolve these issues, to no avail.  I ended up having surgery, and still it was not feeling well.  I met Dr. Daulton, Jr. and decided to go see him for awhile to see what he could do. 

My mobility was very limited, as well as pain (certainly not as bad as before the surgery, but I still had residual pain). 

I am very happy to report that within 2 weeks, the pain was completely gone and the mobility, which my orthopedic surgeon said that I would never get back, I did get back. 

I’ve been going to Dr. Ron ever since, with any kind of problem I have.  I would tell anybody to go to him, because we’ve been to many chiropractors in our lives, and Dr. Ron has been the best one I have ever encountered. 

He’s caring, listens very well, addresses every issue – I can not say enough about him.  So, that is my testimonial – thank you."

"I’m actually walking, which I never would have thought I would’ve been able to do without the surgery..."

"Hi – my name is Joe McCarthy, and I had an accident shoveling snow and threw my back out in January of ’08.  I had to be taken out of the house by ambulance, hospitalized for 3 days, rehabbed for about a month and a half – everybody at that point told me that I needed surgery done on my back because my herniated disc was just so far out that they didn’t see any other way of healing this thing.

Upon hearing that news, and from others that told me the same thing, I approached Dr. Daulton.  I’ve know Dr. Daulton, Sr. for many years – and I asked him if he could do anything with it, and he said, “Joe, I don’t see anything here that we can’t correct – you might need surgery in your late 70’s or 80’s, but right now I don’t believe that you need surgery.  Let’s do some procedures.”

We did the spinal decompression with adjustments to compliment that, and here it is in June and I’m actually walking, which I never would have thought I would’ve been able to do without the surgery.

During that very depressing time I would go from room to room looking for a place to sit, or staying away from public gatherings because I just could not stand for more than 2 or 3 minutes at a time.  I basically isolated myself, and I just want to say that, through chiropractic care with Dr. Daulton, I’m walking, and I’ve entered back in to being a very active person again.

I still do my stretches, and I still occasionally get adjusted.  But from going from the conventional wisdom of cutting and surgery and doctors referring, to putting my faith in God and self-determination to get through this without surgery and with the talent of Dr. Daulton, he was blessed by God.

I’m not a person who wears my religion on my sleeve, but I believe that this man put me back on track, and it’s now up to me to maintain my physical health.

I just wanted to leave this message as a testimonial from myself."

"Hey Dr. Ron – this is Lisa Writt, just calling to tell you my story.  I’ve basically had a bad back since I was a kid – I had arthritis.  When I was pregnant with my daughter, I was in a car accident and came out of it with a herniated disc. 

I was treated for that – went through therapy, massage, and all that, and it didn’t help.  Then, a few years ago, I fell in my kitchen, and I’m guessing that’s how I got the second herniated disc. 

After that my pain was really, really bad.  I went and had an EMG done and they couldn’t specify which nerves were being affected, and the EMG was very, very painful. 

My family doctor sent me to a surgeon, and I was told by him that my only two options were to get cortisone shots, or if that didn’t work, have back surgery.  He said a lot of people wind up worse with the surgery, or it doesn’t help at all, and very few feel better. 

So, I went to go get the cortisone shots at St. Catherine’s Hospital and wound up in the waiting room for 5 hours, and during that time I spoke with a lot of the patients there waiting for their cortisone shots.  The story I got from about 20 people was that sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t – there’s no guarantee.  And, from what I’ve read, it damages your back more. 

So, anyways, I decided not to get the shots, and I found out about your practice from my father, and the first treatment I had from you relieved the pain from the pinched nerve that I had, and it’s just been getting better ever since then. 

When I went to that surgeon, I felt that I was heading to the point where I was going to be in a wheelchair – that’s how bad my pain was and how much it affected my everyday life. 

Like I said, you got rid of that right away, and with my discs, I’ve had a lot of improvement.  You got rid of that sciatica pain also, and that was really, really something.  I’ve had a lot of improvement in my neck and you got rid of my headaches also.  It’s all good! 

I would strongly recommend anybody to come to you instead of going to a surgeon."

 "Now I can do everything I could do before (my injury), but better..."

"Hello – I’m calling in regards to Dr. Ron, and the success rate I’ve had with him over the past 4 years. 

I was in a car accident about 4 years ago, and it was so bad that the doctors were saying that it was going to take me a year to walk again.  So, Dr. Ron, with his persistence, worked on me and got me back on my feet in less than 3 months. 

With his round-the-clock care (even on the days that he was off, he was taking care of me), he got me better a lot more quickly.  Now I can do everything I could do before, but better. 

So, I just think that Dr. Ron is really good at what he does – I know I trust him with my life.  I think that Dr. Ron is an amazing doctor, and I don’t think that anybody could ask for a better doctor."

"Hi Dr. Ron – I wanted to call and let you know about an exciting story for me.  A couple of years ago, I had pulled my upper back out (the top rib area), and I went through physical therapy.  It was six weeks, and it still never got better.  

I had a similar incident just 2 weeks ago, and I came to you the same day that it happened.  Once I got in, the next day – the next day – I was amazed!  The next day it was fine – it was still a little tender, but it was so much better.  And, I have no problems with it today, which is 2 weeks later (instead of 6 weeks later, like in physical therapy).

So, I just wanted to thank you very much for what you do – it’s amazing to me, considering I had gone through physical therapy in other incidences.  Thank you so much for what you do – God bless."

"Hello – I am Dr. Marlene Krupa, a clinical psychologist, and I want to thank Dr. Daulton for substantially improving my condition after just a short time in therapy.  

I had 2 car accidents approximately 20 years ago, and I’ve seen various specialties and experienced many medical modalities for the pain in my neck and back.  I’ve had spasms, headaches, and numbness in limbs.

Dr. Daulton provided a holistic approach, that as a healthcare provider myself I really believe in.  He provided education, exercises, therapy, and I believe that this holistic approach has really made the difference, because I’m utilizing things outside of the manipulation that is making improvements.  

He’s even actually more thorough than the New York chiropractor that worked on me, who also worked on the late Pope John Paul II.  

I highly recommend Dr. Daulton, and am pleased to testify on his behalf.  

Do not let your spine deteriorate as mine did, when there are highly effective, proven therapies that can help bring you back to healthy living.  Thank you."

"After seeing Dr. Ron Daulton, Jr., I realized this should have been my first decision..."

Click the play button to hear what Irene had to say...

"Hi – this is Irene Mendoza.  I visited doctor after doctor, all wanting me to discontinue the stronger medications that the previous doctor prescribed, only to walk away with not just one medication, but 2 or 3 of their choice.  After resorting to emergency room services, and spending quite a bit of time and energy there, I found no answers to my issues. 

After traditional medications weren’t making me feel better, I realized that my approach was wrong.  I really didn’t want to experience, again and again, the waiting in a doctor’s office for 2 hours or more, and spending my valuable time and money just to be told, “here, take these and call me in the morning.” 

After seeing Dr. Ron Daulton, Jr., I realized this should have been my first decision.  I selected Dr. Daulton for another family member with an issue, and at that time, I had no idea that I would also need his services. 

What a wonderful, kind, gentle, and understanding doctor that Dr. Ron is.   

I’m very grateful that, although my circumstance is a multitude of issues, he’s been able to pinpoint and help me regain control of my health status, and I’m improving dramatically over the time frame that I’ve been seeing him. 

He is so patient, and he knows what each patient needs.  He is the best, and I highly recommend him. 

I want you to know that I’m not the type of person that recommends doctors.  However, Dr. Ron has earned my trust and respect.  I can not respond for all chiropractors, only for those that I have experienced and seen, and after all I have been through, trust that I am very selective."

"Hello – this is Louise Velez, and I’m calling about Dr. Daulton.  Well, I’ll tell you – it’s quite a story, and I hope it’s not too long.  I went to chiropractors before, and I didn’t believe in them, until I saw Dr. Ron.  I’ve had bad headaches, arthritis of my knees, and I’ve fallen down a few times, and I went to see him. 

Well, after I saw what he had done for my grandson – he got hurt in an accident, and Dr. Ron took care of him real good, so I decided to see him.  I thought I’d try once more, so I did, and to this day, I feel great.

Now he’s taken care of me for quite a few years, and I wouldn’t change him for the world.  He’s a real wonderful person, and the people in his office are very nice and very friendly. 

There’s more to it, but the main thing is that I believe in him, and he’s real nice and very good.  Thank you."

 "...after only 4 treatments my pain was gone and I could walk again..."

"I had been to several doctors with my severe back pain and it generated down to my legs and also the bottom of my feet.  It was so bad that the only way I could get around in the house was to crawl on my hands and knees.

When I came to Hammond Chiropractic I was in great pain and discouragement, but after only 4 treatments my pain was gone and I could put my feet on the ground and could walk again.  Also, I was taking pain killers every 4 hours day and night - after seeing Dr. Daulton, I did not have to use them and have not used them since. 

I highly recommend both of Hammond Chiropractic's Dr.'s Daulton for spine and lower back pain to get you feeling good again."

 "Thank you Dr. Ron!"

"I am a 65-plus age female.  I suffer from chronic arthritis of the spine and back.  After having two hip replacement surgeries, I didn't want to experience any more surgeries due to my arthritis.  But that's what my doctor recommended to relieve the back pain that I was experiencing.

Since I was undergoing Chiropractic treatments, my Chiropractor suggested lumbar decompression therapy to alleviate my back pain.  After several treatments, I noticed a great improvement in my ability to sit and stand with little or no pain.  I was even able to take a vacation riding in a car to several cities and over 2000 miles of riding.  Lumbar decompression is the best thing that could have happened to me.

Thank you Dr. Ron!"

 "In just two appointments my pain is completely gone..."

"I clean pet cages at Petsmart.  Several weeks ago I abruptly slid forward while wiping the bottom of a metal cage.  A few days later I started feeling pain in my back and side.  Thinking it was just a sore muscle I waited about two weeks before seeking medical attention.  Each day the pain got worse instead of better until it was so intrusive that I had to go to the doctor.

I was about to go to the Hammond Clinic when my friend, Paulette, called.  Paulette urged me to see Dr. Ron for a chiropractic adjustment.  I had read a lot about chiropractic but had never been to a chiropractor before.  Thinking my GP would give me some pain pill to relieve my suffering instantly, I was torn, but decided to give Dr. Ron a try.  In just two appointments my pain is completely gone.  Dr. Ron realigned three displaced ribs and the inflammation is gone along with the pain."

 "I no longer have to wear a back support daily like I had been for a few months..."

"I hurt my back lifting my bike and making a quick turn with my body at the same time.  The pain was instant and sharp.  I thought it would go away on its own.

The pain changed over the next couple of weeks but was still persistent.  At times, I could not get up out of bed without moving in certain ways.  It hurt very badly to get up in the normal fashion.

I came here to Dr. Daulton's office and he helped me get back to normal.  I no longer have to wear a back support daily like I had been for a few months."

 "I don't get headaches very often anymore - it's wonderful..."

"Ever since I have been coming to Dr. Ron for my neck and headaches, I don't get headaches very often anymore - it's wonderful!

I feel so much better.

He has also worked on my daughter, Seayra Goerg, and she has had nothing but good results also. Thank you for helping me and my daughter!."

"Receiving treatment from the doctor opened up a new world of treatment to me, without medication.

The cheerful voices of the receptionists were most helpful in setting the mood of care for me and my daughter, who introduced me to the clinic."
