Highlands Chiropractic Clinic

I met Dr. Bob by scheduling an appointment. I have a fitness studio. My clients often need resources that are committed and capable of making a difference in their health. I make it a point to find resources that can assist me in my own efforts to create health with clients. For me and clients, the more immediate the results in their health, the better.
Since everyone is different, the responses to Dr. Bob’s non-​traditional approach will vary and it is best to «see for yourself». Hopefully, you will never need the services of a chiropractor. But if you do, Dr. Bob’s would be a choice that you could not go wrong with. You may have to wait because it’s first come first serve. You may be with others patients in the room. This one thing allows him to take all the time he needs with EVERY client. «You okay on time?» is what he may ask you because he can be more committed in the moment than you can be. Yes, it may cost you two hours… or more. You could walk right in and go straight to an open table.
I personally think of Dr. Bob as gifted in what he does. To have to wait on ANY doctor because of their skills talents and abilities is very different from having to wait on them because they have over booked you into an already packed scheduled. He is affordable, knowledgeable and freely shares his knowledge to benefit anyone that needs help. .
I recommend ALL of my clients to only two chiropractors in the highland/​buckhead area. Dr. Bob is one of them.
There is one very consistent theme in all reviews written here and that is summed up by these words used by all: real thing-​cordial-​genuinely happy-​caring-​compassionate-​affordable-​reputable-​really good adjustments-​really cares about you getting better…
Go visit and decide for yourself:-)

Dr. Bob has quite a following around Atlanta. He operates his office in a very different way than most chiropractors.
You walk in and get a number. He treats several people at a time in one big room. He does one adjustment, lets you rest while he treats others, and then comes back to you several times. He’s very affordable. $ 60 for the first two adjustments, and $ 40 each after that. You pay cash or check into a big box on the counter.
I’m taking stars off because of two things.
1. The wait and treatment take a long time. His web site and business card say he opens at 10am, so I arrived for my second visit at 9:40, hoping to avoid a super long wait. But, when I arrived, he was already open, and here I am waiting 45 minutes later.
2. While Dr Bob is a very sweet and soft spoken guy and his adjustments are great, the lady working at the front desk was rude when I asked about paying. She spent most of my two hours in the office talking loudly to other clients and on her phone. Maybe she’s not a receptionist, just a Dr Bob groupie who hangs out in the office. Unclear.

Bob is a wonderfully caring and compassionate chiropractor. As a working college student, you can’t beat the price. He really cares about you getting better … my first visit he explained to me the importance of stretching in order for the healing process that I was undergoing to actually work … I neglected stretching but then started the stretches he recommended and WOW I’ve been feeling so much better. It really seems like he goes through the effort to treat the source of the problem, and not the symptoms.
Only down side is the wait. It can get ridiculous, so bring a book.

I have been to several Chiropractors over the years. I have two replaced hip joints with some other medical issues. In what seems unusual with my first visit with his shall we say work area. It is amazing the energy when you see the look on their face as they lay down on the table and the relief when they get up. I have the best week after a visit. I now look forward and know when its time to head to his office.
Dr. Bob
My thoughts and good energy is headed your way after the passing of your mother..

Dr. Bob.
I’ve heard his name around town long before I stopped by for a visit.
At first, I was a little taken aback by the Dr. Bob Devotees. There are some steadfast Dr. Bob supporters out there which makes me slightly skeptical. But, I’m here to assert that Dr. Bob IS the real thing.
Here’s just some of my observations.
#1: He seems genuinely happy in his work. He’s cordial, involved and wants to answer your questions. (imagine going to a job you loved every day!)
#2: He’s seems knowledgeable. He’ll tell you about exercises you can do at home to strengthen your back and spine.
#3: He’s found a way to have a practice on HIS terms, no blood-​sucking bureaucracies to answer to or papers to send through the billing cycle. At first, it feels counter-​intuitive, but then you realize that we put up with a lot of bull%$^# to stay healthy.
#4: I never feel like a mark, as I have at other Chiropractic offices. I feel satisfied after I leave.
#5: He’s focused on the comfort of his patients. WOWee!
You’ll find that everyone there is just fine waiting to see him. Everybody’s amicable in the waiting room.
Prepare to wait. It’s first come-​first serve and you never know how many people are ahead of you. It’s never an out of control amount of time though, and he takes five people at a time.
Still, Dr. Bob seems like a gentle man, and one devoted to his profession. I like his style and I’ll be *back* when it’s time to adjust (forgive the wordplay).

Want to be healed? Come see Dr. Bob. No gimmicks, no x-​rays, no supplements, no repeat visits. I drive 40 miles one way to see Dr. Bob, and would gladly drive longer if necessary. Dr. Bob treats 6 family members, and at least as many friends of mine. Everyone has the same result– a better life. I have been adjusted by at least 20 chiropractors over the decades. Dr. Bob has more talent than the top 5 combined. His hands know where and how to heal your spine. He does not want you to be a patient, he wants you to have excellent spinal health. (and not need his services) He wants to teach you how to avoid the need for chiropractic.

I have been a patient of Dr. Bob for 18 years. I went while pregnant with my only child and had her adjusted 10 days after birth. Dr. Bob helped keep both of us healthy these years, sometimes with long gaps between treatment. Because of the hours, I found myself going to another clinic for awhile and gave it a good 6 month try, but found the super short visits, rotating doctors and sales pressure not nearly as effective for my aches and pains as Dr. Bob’s treatment. If you’ve never done anything like the Dr. Bob experience, it will be different. Bring reading material and prepare to be fully present; don’t go when you have an appointment to get to afterward. You’ll be glad you did — many times I have said «if Dr. bob only made house calls.» The man is a walking testament to his own method– he has been to the doctor once in his adult life and looks easily 10 – 15 years younger than he is. And Carole is a great massage therapist too — she beats you up in a good way!

Dr. Bob is very good at adjustments and stopping pain. Just extremely un-​orthadox. He wears a head set and answers phone calls while he works on you. Oh, and you’re in a room with 5 or 6 other people. You can’t make an appointment only walk in’s and that can some times take a while. So if you have a lot of time to spare he will make you feel better and a lot less expensive, but cash or check only.

I visited here at the suggestions of Ms. L. and another trusted friend. It’s not your typical setup for chiropractic but it sure worked for me. This practice is walk-​in only, no appointments. You come in and wait your turn in a rather small waiting area (some choose to wait outside). When your turn comes, you walk back to the treatment room, which has 5 benches. Dr. Bob circulates among the benches, quietly (and gently) working on you for a few moments and then leaving you to relax for a few minutes while he visits the other benches. I went for two sessions, and both times I had to wait about 30 minutes to get in, then spent about 45 minutes in the treatment room. Dr. Bob was very good; he didn’t beat around the bush, his adjustments did the trick and I was able to go back to work right away, which I didn’t expect.
No insurance is accepted here, but the charge is less than my health insurance’s copay for chiropractic: $ 30 per visit, though the first visit is $ 60 (but comes with a free followup visit). You put your money in a box in the waiting area.
I will certainly visit there again. The treatment was excellent, and I really appreciate that there was no hard sell of dietary supplements, and no pronouncement that I’d need several months of twice-​a-​week visits to get better, which I’ve heard from other chiropractors.

I was having issues with my back, and wanted a therapeutic massage, not a «relaxation» massage. A friend recommended Carole at Highlands Chiropractic. I called and got an appointment the next day. (thank God)
I chose to get massage instead of chiropractic for general tension in my back and neck area. I can’t vouch for the quality of chiropractic care, but the massage was the best I’ve ever had. It did hurt a little while she was working on me, but totally worth it when I walked out of there feeling like my regular self.
Warning: No credit cards. Come with cash. Her rates are reasonable ($ 70 per hour as of last week)
