Michael Veselak, DC

Dr Veselak is a really a patient and understanding chiropractor. I know I can be a bit high maintenance when it comes to my chiropractic care and he listens to my concerns and makes sure I feel at ease. I always feel better when leaving his office. I highly recommend him to all of my friends (and fellow Unilocalers!).

Dr. Veselak might be too good for his own good. I was having some serious sudden onset shoulder pain. Dr V and I went though a series of tests to diagnose the problem area, once the problem was identified Dr. V explained in layperson terms what was going on, treated the affected area, provided a clear set of instructions how to work on the problem area at home and how keep the pain from happening in the future. One trip and that was it, problem fixed. I followed Dr. Veselaks treatment suggestions and have been pain free ever since.

I write this as I am about to move out of state. I don’t know how I will ever find a doctor as good as Michael Veselak. I have been to many Chiropractors during my 63 years. I have had very mixed results with most of them. Dr. Veselak was referred to me by a professional trainer a few years ago. Seeing him was the best thing I ever did.
Although I am now older, I am still very active. I am a retired Law Enforcement officer who likes all the «guy» stuff. Motorcycles, fast cars, hunting, fishing, shooting. The kind of things that I thought I might have to give up when I was diagnosed with severe spinal stenosis.
I went to a top orthopedic surgical center in Van Nuys. They work miracles on broken cops, firefighters and athletes. I had X-​Rays, Neurological tests, MRIs and steroid shots. Nothing stopped the pain. I was resigned to get lumbar surgery even though there was no guarantee that it would solve my very unique problem.
I worked with Dr. Veselak for a long time. We got to know each other very well and I knew he took a very personal interest in helping me. He tried many techniques that brought some relief for periods of time but the problem recurred. Bear in mind that none of the procedures were painful, he is the most gentile guy!
At one point he decided to go outside of the box and look at my diet. He had me make some simple changes in my eating habits and kept an eye on my progress. Wow, I had immediate relief and I ended up losing 15 pounds and a couple of inches off my waist. These were things I wanted and needed to do anyway!
Dr. Veselak is a realist when it comes to orthopedic surgery. He reviewed the surgery that was recommended for me and agreed that that would be the procedure that would be most appropriate for me. The concern he and the surgeon had was that my case was not typical. Neither one of them was positive that the surgery would solve the problem. BOTH of them agreed that if I could get relieve without the surgery, that would be the best way for me to go. So, I continue to keep the pain and the surgery at bay thanks to Dr. Veselak.
If you are reading this because you are looking for someone to help you with your pain, make an appointment to see Dr. Veselak. It could change your life. He helped change mine!

Finally, I have found a chiropractor in town who understands the ART of chiropractic. He’s the only DC in town who knows how to work on my back. I’ve tried everyone else and Dr. Veselak is the best for my old and tired back. Between sitting at a desk all day and playing golf on weekends, my back is punished, but Dr. V puts me back in good shape.
I enjoy his easy demeanor and we often chat about common interests. His staff is friendly and warm. His office is not a factory like some other places. The wait is never long… just enough to sit in the lobby to chill-​out and block out the workday’s hectic thoughts from your mind, and you’re summoned to one of the exam rooms.
If you are searching for a terrific chiropractor in Camarillo, you should try Dr. Veselak out. I’m really glad I did.

I had crazy pain in my neck and the base of my skull causing major headaches and blurred vision. I tried everything including another chiropractor before I called Dr. V. 2 treatments in 4 days and I was back to 100%. I highly recommend him for anyone!

Dr. Veselak is so very smart, talented and has a great «bedside» manner. He was able to pretty accurately tell me what to expect over the next few days from my neck injury. Every visit to him proceeding that I felt a little better. He did not push expensive tests or un-​needed care on me, which I know a lot of Chiropractors would do. I will definitely go back and see him soon for an adjustment and would highly recommend him to a wonderful resource right here in the Camarillo area.
PS — His staff ladies are very thoughtful, helpful and professional too. Great office!

I had pain in my shoulder for over a year. My Orthopedist said it was bursitis and instructed me to go physical therapy. I went for several weeks to a large facility where everyone was very nice but I was shuffled around and seen by several different people in each visit. My shoulder improved although not 100%. Back to the Orthopedist who now had me get an MRI and instructed me to go back to PT.
Looking for a more personal experience, a tennis friend of mine raved about Dr. Vesalak. I had never been to a chiropractor before but since he also has a physical therapist in his office I made an appointment.
He confirmed the bursitis diagnosis but the main problem was my shoulder was not rotating in the socket, it was almost frozen. The treatment at his office was much more personal, I was not shuffled around and only saw him and the wonderful PT on his staff. They worked on loosening the shoulder socket and building the muscles that support it. He knew exactly where to press and what to adjust to get it moving again. I can now reach for something without going into a spasm of pain and play tennis, yea! I highly recommend Dr. Vesalak and his staff. Thank you, thank you Dr. V.

I had a back injury about 18 months ago and was told by my MD to get an MRI. MRI MD #1 says it is a bulging disc in the lower back and surgery was its only fix. GO back to my MD #2 looks at the MRI and says I need surgery. I am not really interested in surgery so I went for another opinion. Dr #3 says back surgery will solve the problem. I was in disbelief, so I searched out an alternative method. Three Chiropractor/​Sports Therapists later I walk into Dr. Veselak’s office and he said let’s see what we can do. Over a period of about 4 – 6 weeks, 3 sessions a week I was pain free with no issues. He and his staff are caring professionals with the latest equipment and knowledge that the industry could ask for. A big 5 star recommend from my experience.

Dr. Veselak is the best! So kind gentle and quick :)

I’m reading the other reviews for Dr. Veselak and I concur. He is caring, knowledgeable, gentle and has an almost psychic ability to know where the hurt is. He has personal and professional integrity, which is really important in this field. Realistic expectations for treatment are given and will not just string you along for visit after visit, month after month, like many other Chiropractors do. He is all this and one hell of a nice guy. What else could you ask for?

Dr. Veselak is the best of the best! The first time I met him, as a coach of my son’s basketball team and told him of a back problem I was having, he said, «Come in, let me take a look at you, let me get you fixed up and show you how to take care of yourself and get you out of my care.» I did that and was pleasantly surprised that not only did he actually sit down and LISTEN to me, he did exactly what he said he would do. I saw him several times over the next couple weeks before my issue was gone. He did not have me returning to his office three times a week for the next year, twice a week for the following 2 years, and once a week for the rest of my life as some chiropractors do. I see him now as needed and he’s always great. More than his awesome bedside manner, he is gentle with his adjustments and progressive in the techniques he emplores. If you have any considerations about chiropractors, please give them up for Dr. Veselak — I promise that you will not be disappointed! Many people do not hold chiropractors in a high regard but Dr. Veselak is most definitely an exception to anything negative you’ve ever heard of them.

I hurt my neck about a week ago lifting something and was in excruciating pain, I couldn’t even turn my head, then after my friend saw how much pain I was in she told me to go see her chiropractor Dr. Veselak. I called his office in the morning and was able to get an appointment the same day! When I arrived in the office I was greeted by Chris who was very friendly and was taken to a room as soon as I was done with my paperwork. I couldn’t believe it no waiting around for an hour for the dr.!! After Dr. Veselak was done treating me I immediately felt 70% better it was amazing! Then after the 2^nd treatment I was 90% better. By the 3^rd treatment I was cured, Dr. Veselak is fantastic and I highly recommend him and have been telling all my friends to switch chiropractors and go see him!
