Mission Statement

When people think of chiropractic, the first thing that comes up for most people is the tik tok videos of chiropractors cracking peoples necks and all the crazy reactions. You may find yourself looking for a chiropractor and you have never been to one or you have seen 20 and you are looking at finding videos to see if this is a fit for you. I would like to offer a perspective that can help describe not only our office but what others are doing as well.

When someone has to visit the medical doctor, there can be different personalities and variation of office visits among different MD, DO, etc. However, with chiropractors that is not the case. I believe our profession does a poor job actually telling you what is out there and the different options. Chiropractic has an art to it that can create a great deal of confusion if you are trying to be a consumer of it. Why does one guy do an x-ray? why does the next guy not do x-rays? why did this guy try and pop me ? why did this guy use that clicky thing( the activator) and nothing popped- does this even work? why did this guy push on my back and when he does the table drops under me and makes a loud noise( drop table)? why does this office take insurance and this one does not? why does this office only do PI and workers comp but this one does not? I could go on for days. THE ANSWER is chiropractic due to its artistic nature has a great deal of variety that the population should be educated about prior to making a decision as a consumer. Different offices have different styles and they ALL work….. but which one works for you?

We opened up Eleven point Wellness based on experiences the doctor had as a patient and a doctor who got a lot of experience out of school. Does this resonate with you?

In 2023, Dr. John had to get a Covid test to go back to work. He had a minor case of pink eye. At the office visit, height, weight, and vitals were checked. The Doctor came in and did not even look at his eye, he did no exam, and spent maybe 5 minutes with Dr. John. The diagnosis form was handed to Dr. John and he was sent on his way. Dr. John looks down at the diagnosis form and realizes he was diagnosed with pink eye BUT also that he was MORBIDLY OBESE. Listed at 5’7, 188 pounds Dr. John was told he would need a follow up for dietary counseling for his problem that…. 1. the doctor did not even bring up 2. is wrong because Dr. John was an athlete and has always been in the weight room. BMI is an outdated model and he is nowhere close to being obese. 3. was put together by a formula in the computer system and diagnosed with no consultation or diagnosed by a doctor who truly was looking at his patient. Overall, this experience was a motivating factor to help fill the voids and mend frustrations you probably have with your doctor’s visits.

OUR VISION/MISSION STATMENT

At Eleven Point Wellness, our mission is to provide you the TIME needed with your doctor so the doctor can get to the WHY of your aches and pains. With each visit we want to give the TIME and the WHY things are occurring so that you can understand the specific triggers for you and be proactive in your recovery. This is not a high volume model where he sees 85 a day. Each patient is looked at on an individual basis so they receive personalized care. No two patients are the same and you should not be treated by some algorithm or protocol. With this model, Dr. John gets a better understanding of the complexity of certain cases and he can make better clinical decisions. Dr. John is also able to actually see how patients are progressing with their care instead of the stressors of a high volume practice where often times, things can be missed or there is not time to make changes or voice concerns. We hope to be a guide on your healing journey.
