EXTREMELY happy with the care from Dr. Pete. Back issues for a number of years and Pete helped me feel younger and stronger. Great at explaining why I was having pain and what we needed to do to correct it. Plus - an all around good dude too. Highly recommend!!!
I came to the spine center dealing with constant nerve pain and many other chronic issues. Pete's approach to care is one based on research, experience, and diligence. I'm three appointments into our plan for treatment and have experienced the positive effects already.
Dr. Pete Geary at Brookfield Spine and Health Center is a game-changer. We sought his help for everything from sports injuries and mobility to routine maintenance, and the experience has been exceptional! It’s rare to find a practitioner so clinically brilliant, yet so genuinely friendly and honest.<br><br>He doesn’t just treat a single symptom; he holistically evaluates your lifestyle to uncover the root cause of the issue. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain or just want to stay at the top of your game, Dr. Geary is the best choice to get you back to 100% and participating in life pain-free.<br><br>Rich & Martha
To coin a cliche, Dr Pete's a God sent. I had alot of physical pain from driving a semi, past accidents and health issues that others were not able to me help with without putting me on medications, which would have given me other problems. (I'm not against medications, they just never helped in the past-I'm 73yo), I'm NOT willing to go that route anymore. Gradually, one by one, with his care, my symptoms are so...much better and after each treatment I notice improvement. He REALLY treats you like family.<br>Melanie needs a shout out too--So caring<br>Thank you Dr. Pete
Dr Pete is an excellent Dr. I had severe neck pain & went through physical therapy but didn’t solve the problem. However, with the traction & the Pulstar adjustment , I am feeling 100% which is going on a month & I know it will continue.
The staff is amazing. You feel welcomed the moment you walk in.<br>This is the first time we've taken our almost 2-year-old to the chiropractor, and we just love how caring and understanding Dr. Pete is. He's very knowledgeable about the human body and explains everything to you, every step of the way.<br>He treats you like you're part of his family. ♥️
Dr. Pete! What can I say, he truly saved me when I was struggling with my low back pain. I've been to so many chiropractors over the years and the treatments were always the same. Dr. Pete looks at the whole body and provides in-depth information to help you understand the "why" as to what's going on. He is truly the best!
Dr. Pete is a life saver!!! I’ve been to other chiropractors and what Dr. Pete does is really good. My neck and back are so much better after my surgery and he is really good on keeping up with his patients and what needs to be kept up for their health. My daughters are seeing great results as well. Thank you Dr. Pete!!!
Dr. Pete Geary is truly an amazing chiropractor! He is very hardworking, kind and compassionate, with an excellent ability to focus in on each patient’s needs. He listened very carefully to my concerns and was able to come up with a perfect treatment plan specifically tailored for me. I came in with severe back pain and knee pain and in tears, but am thankfully almost completely pain-free now. It has been years since I have been this healthy! I did my part by being diligent and keeping up with my appointments and exercises. The rest was Dr. Pete’s wonderful due diligence in the therapeutic treatments he provided to me and the knowledge that he shared. He is an excellent teacher of good health to help us keep our bodies running in optimal condition. I have learned so much from my visits with him! I have so much more energy and my body is working better than it has in years! Dr. Pete also shares every resource he has in order to help each patient with their particular area of concern. He has such a great demeanor that it makes it very easy to ask questions because you know he will find an answer for you. The office experience there is absolutely wonderful and so is his assistant Melanie! I’m grateful to have found them and I can’t imagine where I would be health wise if I hadn’t started treatment here. I am incredibly grateful for having my health restored and I highly, highly recommend Dr. Pete, a million times over! Thank you so much, Dr. Pete, I truly appreciate all you have done for me!
Dr Geary is truly one of a kind and we can’t say enough great things about him! From the moment you walk in, you can tell how much he truly cares about his patients. He doesn’t just treat symptoms — he focuses on your overall health and makes sure you feel comfortable, listened to, and cared for every single visit.<br><br>He treats everyone like family, whether it’s adults, kids, or athletes. Our whole family has benefited, and we always leave feeling better than when we walked in. It’s rare to find someone who is this knowledgeable and this compassionate.<br><br>We would absolutely recommend him to families, athletes, and anyone looking for someone who genuinely wants to help you feel your best. So thankful to have him on our team!
Dr. Pete is INCREDIBLE!! Calling him the best chiropractor is an understatement. He’s knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about helping his patients get real results. I’ve seen amazing improvements and highly recommend him.
Our whole family sees Dr. Geary every month and we always look forward to our visit. He is great with kids and is very knowledgeable on all of the questions we come with. He is generous with his time so we don’t feel rushed out of the door like we’ve felt with other chiropractic care centers.
I have struggled with serious pain and compression in my neck and Dr Geary has helped me tremendously! As someone who is very active, I appreciate the way he works with and supports my lifestyle. Not only is he a great chiropractor, but he's a great person who I enjoy seeing on a regular basis. I highly recommend seeing him, even if you're not sure he can help - he'll honestly tell you what, if anything, he can do for you and would never suggest care if it won't benefit you.
I’ve been going to Chiropractor’s for 40 years and today’s treatment was amazing. Back pain, neck, pain, and hip pain as well as shoulder all feel amazing!
I have been seeing Dr.Pete for the last few years. He has helped my body in more ways than one. I feel more mobile and pain free after every time I see him. He alleviates the tension in my neck/spine. He is so friendly and genuinely wants the best for you and your family. He focuses on your body as a whole veres just the individual parts. Highly recommend.
I've been a long-time chiropractor fan for years, and I believe everyone benefits from knowing what you may be dealing with (found out I had scoliosis only through a chiro) and getting the necessary adjustments. I moved to the area recently and found Dr. Peter to be a great fit for my needs. Not only does he spend the time understanding your own unique situation, but I appreciate his depth of knowledge and his adjustments have helped relieve so much pressure. Win. Win. Highly recommend!
Dr Peter 😃<br><br>He is very nice and patient with his approach to chiropractic care. We've come up with a plan together including dry needling for tension relief and already within a few visits I’m feeling better and my back pain has significantly improved. He does not run an office where you feel like he gets you in and out and on to the next client. I like that I don't feel dismissed as I have with others.<br><br>Great chiropractor👍
Amazing how in one treatment my low back pain was incredibly decreased. Now with following a specific treatment program, even my urinary incontinence is almost gone and my acid reflux is not waking me up in the middle of the night. Hard to believe that its all connected. But it makes sense that the spine with the hundreds of nerves can affect all your organs that can cause problems if your spine needs help first.
Dr. Peter Geary made losing weight simple and attainable without losing interest. I never thought I could lose 2 sizes in 6 weeks! And now he and Melanie are teaching me how to keep it off and still enjoy life to its fullest. The best outcome I could ever have is just how wonderful I feel now. I wish everyone could go through Chirothin with Dr. Geary just to feel so much better and have that EXTRA energy! Dr. Geary is the best!
In the attempt to help a friend, I was referred to Dr.Geary. Meanwhile, I had been receiving treatment from another chiropractor across town. Dr. G. was so kind and caring to my friend that I decided to schedule a consultation the following week…just out of curiosity ( I had read many of his reviews and was very intrigued). Within two weeks my knee pain had improved significantly. Now, eight weeks later, I feel like a different person for the better! I appreciate his approach to overall health, his honesty and caring demeanor, and I never feel rushed. He is a treasure and I HIGHLY recommend him. I only wish I had known of him years ago.
I was referred by my sister and mom who have been seeing Dr Pete for years. My sister has had some rough back injuries post twins pregnancies and Dr Pete is always able to get her in quickly and feeling better sooner and more long term. I felt like I had a slipped disc because my body was completely crooked from a week ago. I decide to give Dr Pete a try. I called in the morning and they were able to get me in promptly for a consultation and referred for some x rays to get a better picture of my injuries. I was able to come in the next day and given an adjustment, a plan with exercises and ways to improve not only quickly but to prevent further damage to my spine and disc's. Dr Pete is kind, understanding and has a lot of methods beyond what I have had at other chiropractors ! I highly recommend!
Dr. Pete is amazing. I came in with serious neck pain and through his treatments have brought the pain levels down significantly. He doesn’t pop and pray but uses precision tech to see where the trouble spots are and goes to work on them. Would highly recommend.
Dr. Geary is the best of the best. This man saved my life about 13 years ago. I had a lifelong lower back issue with ruptured & herniated discs. The sciatica was so bad that I wanted to chop my leg off to alleviate the pain. All of the surgeons wanted to fuse my spine. That is TERRIFYING! The success rate on that type of surgery is very low for short term, and even worse for long term. I was ready to move forward with surgery. But. My mother in law referred me to Dr. Geary, telling me how awesome he is and that I need to try his services. Yeah yeah yeah. All of those chiropractors are the same. I’ve tried several throughout the years already. She pleaded with me to just give his services a try. I truly had little hope. For months, I had to be driven around while I laid down in the back of a van to go anywhere. I couldn’t even raise my one leg an inch off of the ground. I was in excruciating pain. This miracle worker worked with me in many ways to get me back to living without needing surgery. He gave me hope that I thought was lost. It took some time and a ton of effort. I owe this man my life. It certainly didn’t hurt that he referred the first pain specialist that actually was able to help me without pills. Dr. Geary is honest, caring, motivating, and incredibly smart. What a great guy. If you are looking for a phenomenal Chiropractor that helps in several different ways, stop searching and schedule an appointment with him asap. Thank you very much Dr. Geary. I owe you big time for keeping surgery at bay for me. Thank God there are still genuine people like you.
I have suffered with neuropathy as far back as I can remember. My doctors all said there was nothing I could do about it and I would have to live with it. After my first visit with Dr Geary, I was elated to hear that he could help me. He started giving me a special light treatment in addition to starting me on a supplement. Within just two treatments the pain and numbness subsided and as of today, I am symptom free. He is also helping me with problems I have had with my shoulders since I played sports and worked in construction. Dr. Geary has improved my quality of life and I am now able to do many things I couldn’t do previously.
My knee was always swollen and painful and I thought this was something that I just had to live with. However, I had heard great things about Dr. Pete Geary so I thought I would give him a try. After just a few sessions of treatment, my knee is less swollen and almost pain free. Thank you, Dr. Geary!!!!
I've seen other chiropractors over the last year and haven't had any improvements to fix my lower back issues or improve my back issues. My back seems to get worse and worse. Since I've seen Dr. Peter within 2 weeks I have seen so much improvement. His methods have worked and I am able play baseball with the kids without having ongoing pain. I would highly recommend Dr. Peter. He really understands how the body needs to work and it has shown in the treatments. He has also given me the tools to make sure I keep having success and to keep my back healthy and strong. I would highly recommend Dr. Peter.
I've been seeing Dr. Pete for several months now, and he's changed my life. After struggling with chronic pain that various medical doctors couldn't seem to resolve, Dr. Pete was able to provide effective treatments that actually work.<br><br>What sets Dr Pete apart is his holistic approach to healthcare. He doesn't just treat symptoms; he considers the whole person and how different aspects of my health might be interconnected. My treatment is always individualized. He makes me feel seen as a person, not jsut symptoms.<br><br>His repertoire of techniques is impressive. Whether it's adjustments for my neck, back, knees, or ankles, Dr.Pete always has a tailored solution that brings relief.<br><br>One particular issue I struggled with was constantly rolling my ankles since I was 10 years old, which was both painful and frustrating. He analyzed the way my body is set, and provided a recommendation, which stopped my ankles from rolling multiple times a year. I have not rolled my ankles since.<br><br>Overall, I can't recommend Dr. Pete highly enough. His expertise, compassionate care, and commitment to holistic healing have made a world of difference for me. If you're looking for a chiropractor who can truly make a positive impact on your health and well-being, Dr. Pete is the one.
Dr Peter Geary (Dr Pete) is AWESOME. I racked up my back mid-May 2022. After several trips to the chiropractor I had been seeing - a trip to my Aurora General Practitioner - who sent me to an Aurora Physical Therapist (several sessions) - which led to a couple of Aurora specialists - my situation continued to get worse. By the middle of July, I was barely walking. The Aurora folks recommended Surgery to fuse a few lumbar disks. At the age of 59, I did not want to go there.<br><br>A work buddy recommended Dr Pete. I saw him for the first time 7/18/22 and have been on the mend since. Through various Chiropractic treatments, dry needling, electronic stimulation, light therapy, herbal supplements and exercises: I am happy to say I am getting very close to full pre-injury function. No Surgery - No Drugs.<br><br>Your usual 15 minute appointment with Dr Pete is truly 15 minutes, not the 5 or so minutes many Chiropractic practitioners actually give you. Dr Pete always runs on time, is very friendly, super knowledgeable and really cares - he treats you like family.<br><br>I highly recommend Dr Pete.
Dr. Pete is wonderful! He is patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He takes the time to truly listen to you. After just one visit to Dr. Pete my lower back injury was significantly improved. After just a few visits, it was completely better! He is truly one of the best chiropractors I have ever seen.
Dr. Pete truly cares about his patients and I love my visits with him! He has helped both me and my husband with back and neck pain. Dr. Pete takes the time to listen to me and explains what he is doing and why, which I really appreciate! I definitely feel like he treats me like family, I highly recommend him!
Dr. Pete is superior at what he does. He is very concerned about your overall heath and wellness. He gives you the tools and knowledge you need to improve your heath, and he is very genuine and understanding. I have had issues with my neck and posture for years and in only 2 months my neck is back to normal and my posture has improved drastically.
I have suffered with migraines most of my life, and Dr. Pete is the only chiropractor that has helped me find relief. He is excellent and what he does and always gives a thorough explanation of the body/nervous system. I now take my children for adjustments and he is wonderful with them. They really enjoy their visit with Dr. Pete.
Highly Recommend Dr. Geary. Under his care, I've been able to avoid invasive surgery and am no longer in pain! I will continue treatments to prevent reoccurrence and to keep my mobility and flexibility to combat the long hours sitting at my desk.
I sustained a bad back injury from some landscaping, after a month of feeling intense pain and no relief I visited Dr. Pete and after just a few weeks of adjustments regained mobility and relieved the severe pain in my lower back. I have experienced chiropractors before with mixed results, but Pete is leagues above with a friendly professional demeanor and a careful attention to detail towards your acute needs.
Dr. Pete created an easy-to-follow plan to address my back & neck pain complicated by Rheumatoid Arthritis. He does a great job communicating, checking in, and making sure that the plan is making progress in the right direction. I highly recommend him!
Dr. Pete is always very professional and thorough during our meetings. Every time I see him I get instant relief from the back and neck pain that brings me in. He breaks down why certain areas are in pain and explains what it is that he is doing to alleviate that pain. He also gives great tips for what to do at home to help my back pain to correct some of the chronic issues.
