Paul Farrell, DC

Consistently excellent Chiropractic Adjustments! Dr. Farrell is always positive, friendly and thorough in his work. Easy to schedule appointments, at our convenience, through the organized Receptionist, or by leaving a message, which will get answered promptly. Our Family has been Patients for years, and the Chiropractor is good with Children. This office has an outstanding therapeutic Massage Therapist named Butch. Acupuncture/​Oriental Medicine services are also available (which we have not used yet). Some useful natural Supplements are also sold here.

F.Y.I. for 1^st Timers, IE ‘Dr.B.’:
That (pain) often happens as muscles fight going back ‘home’ from where they’ve been. Not about $$. He is ½ the cost of most others in S.D. But you (Especially if it’s your 1^st visit!!) usually will need at least 3 visits to get you feeling Right again. Those muscles really like to protest the move ‘home’. So Dr. wants to check w/​insurance, to make sure you are approved for follow-​ups, and not just a 1 time «Evaluation».
(I’m not a personal «fan» of this guy. In case you’re wondering. Just had my 1^st visit.) I used to run a Chiro office… MANY folks freak out about all that «back cracking», so you talk up the ‘znext visit’ to engage their participation in their treatment plan. Because, as in any type of muscle work or physical therapy, you are usually going to hurt before you feel better.
Dr. Farrell was real up front w/​me about the pain. (I had not mentioned my previous employment.)
Maybe you just heard $$ and tuned out the pain advisory w/​the rest of his ‘patter’.
Just some info. As you are likely to run into this same ‘problem’ again. Insurance Co.‘s as a rule do not like to pay for Chiro. care.
I hope this helps your understanding of the Insurance Billing Situation, as it is Chronic to any non-​traditional-​western medical care.

I went to Dr Farrell 2 years ago when a coworker referred me to him. I couldn’t even take a deep breath without excruciating pain! I walked out feeling much better and by the end of 2 weeks I was feeling amazing! After 2 years of neglect to my back I have returned again. After just one adjustment I am feeling less stiffness & pain! Not only is he one of the best chiropractors I have seen (there have been at least 4) he is such a hoot! I highly recommend him.

Went in for an adjustment about 2 weeks ago. My neck didn’t hurt then but now it hurts more than ever. I have been to many chiros and I will not go back to this one. He was more concerned about getting me in for the next appointment that he was with the current one. All about the $$$, he wanted to run my insurance just in case I came back for the highly talked about «next appointment» If this is deleted like the other bad reviews, I will repost.

I went to this clinic because I work up the road and I needed to visit a chiropractor close to work. I had some pain in my neck from what I think was a long session of sanding paint off my bathroom walls and ceiling.
I have visited other chiropractors before and I know that the treatment might be a little unpleasant and that I can expect to feel sore the next day or two. But the treatment I received here was in my opinion too harsh and painful. After the adjustment, which by the way, the doctor did not even take x-​rays, my neck hurt for several days (not due to soreness, but pain). I ended up in urgent care and I am now on medication and seeing a physical therapist for the next six weeks to correct the damage that was done. It has now been four weeks since my visit and I am not feeling better.
Needless to say, I will not be visiting Dr. Farrell again.

My husband got seen here recently and it did wonders for his back. He’s been here before for a previous back issue and like last time were able to fit him in on very short notice. I accompanied my husband one of them times and thought the staff were extremely friendly. Def would recommend!

He’s THE best. He might have been a little rough on me, but one thing I know is that he sure gets the job done. I’ve been to a few other chiropractors, and now i now if i want my stiff neck to go away, i need to see him. The pain is gone after i’ve seen him. Dr. Farrell is awesome.

Best Chiropractor of the 3 that i have been to. He will talk you ear off, then put it back on using chiropractic magic. Front desk gal is amazing. I feel like family when i go there. He fixes my back after i run. What more can i ask for?

There are some ailments that just can’t be fixed with pills. You know how you wake up one morning with a crick in your neck or a spasm in your back? Sure, a Tylenol may help the way you feel but it won’t fix the problem. Having a chiropractic adjustment will, however, fix it. Dr. Paul has fixed many things for me over the years that my regular MD wanted to write a prescription for. When I have a sinus infection, my MD wants to write a scrip for antibiotics (that my body hates) but Dr. Paul does accupressure. I’ve walked in there after not being able to breathe for 3 days and walk out with clear sinuses. The accupressure gets the blood flowing and releases the swelling in the sinus cavities making everything drain. OK so not a pretty sight but it does the job.
Most people don’t know that many health issues are causes by subluxations in your spine that compress the nerves leading to various physiological systems. When I first started going to Dr. Paul, I hadn’t had a normal monthly cycle in 8 months. My x-​rays showed that the nerve that leads to my reproductive organs was pinched between 2 vertebrae. 3 or 4 adjustments fixed it! My MD told me it was a hormonal imbalance. Don’t get me wrong, there are some things that you need an MD for but I usually try a chiropractor first.
The prices are competitive and they take most insurance plans. Go see Dr. Paul (aka Dr. Have-​a-​Chat) and have him to a complete eval on your spine. I’m glad I did.
P. S. The phone# is the same but they moved to Mission Valley. I’ll get their new address and change it here when I get it.
