I’ve seen several practitioners here and have been impressed with the services by all: Dr Lindsay Self, Naturopath, helped treat a hormone imbalance I had last year. Within a month, my symptoms pretty much dissipated and things were back to normal. I’ve seen 2⁄3 of the RMTs here and all have been very helpful in pin-pointing causes for pain and alleviating it in the short term. One of them recommended me to the chiro on staff(Dr Wade Phillips), who was able to help rid a chronic cycling injury that was leading to all the tension. All-in-all, I’m happy with my results from all practitioners.(Just be careful not to let the appointment suggestions rake up and the bills escalate.)

Love the staff here! I’ve been coming here for two years now and couldn’t be more satisfied with my services. The office is super cute and welcoming. It doesn’t feel like a depressing clinic at all. The receptionist are great with reminding me of my appointments and give me the option of emailed receipts. The only downer is I have to submit my insurance manually.

I had severe vertigo, was bedridden(for 8 days total!!) to a dark room and had to wear an eye mask to help stop nystagmus, regular vomiting, couldn’t walk without falling over, waking up in the night feeling like I was a sailboat in a storm, the worst medical experience of my life. My doctor«prescribed» gravol, and said«there is no cure, no indication of how long it will last and no known cause». Que panic stations — no cure was my worst nightmare. While she was sympathetic and rubbed my back as I dry retched, they were not the words I wanted to hear! After getting home from the Dr, my husband looked through Unilocal to find a chiropractor(my stepdad is one in Australia so I am comfortable with chiro and have had it most of my life) and Evolve came highly rated. We jumped in a car2go and drove there straight away — me in track pants, a hoodie, sunglasses, slippers and a bag to puke in :(- on day four of my hell. The girls on the front desk were so lovely, they held open the door so my husband could carry me in, got me some peppermint water(turns out peppermint is a natural remedy for dizziness), dimmed the lights, everyone spoke quietly — even the other patients. I must have looked like death, plus I’d not showered properly or brushed my hair in days as I’d vomit if I did either. TMI? Maybe, but you need to know all the priors because after seeing Dr Sommers ONCE(who was incredibly empathetic even though he said this was the worst case he’d ever seen), the vomiting and«sailboat» feeling stopped. By the second visit, the next day, the nystagmus had stopped, thank god. By the 3rd visit I could walk unassisted and open my eyes properly. I felt like singing gospel from the mountain tops. Both my husband and I now see Dr Sommers every month for ‘maintenance’ and preventative chiropractic care, he’s very gentle and practices active release technique, which feels like a combination of chiro and osteo, so don’t be deterred if you think chiropractors are ‘bone crunchers’. It also doesn’t hurt that he’s just a super nice guy. Highly highly recommended.

Becoming a regular at Evolve after my former D.C.stopped practicing to do insurance work. Really changed my perception of someone I saw as an excellent clinician who helped the broken down me find some relief from permanent injuries. The clinic’s reception does make a difference because they ARE the first impression on the phone, or in person. Agree with the reception being wonderful in a clinic that’s welcoming, and physically clean not only in design. I sense the chiropractors, and their team do what they do because they believe in the whole person being treated.

I made the switch to Evolve after seeing my old chiropractor for 7 years. Having gone to Evolve once to see an RMT, I took a chance because I needed to find a chiropractor closer to home. I came in pretty broken, including chronic pain in my shoulder, numbness in my arm and sometimes a hard time walking. Dr Sommers took the time to explain what he was going to do to fix me and I’m happy to report that it took about 2 months and I feel like a different person. He is patient and really cares for his patients(see what I did there?) Given my history of chiropractic visits, I was a bit skeptical that the pain would ever go away. Dr Sommers has made me an evangelist for his practice. I also had the opportunity to visit his colleague Dr. Phillips, I was hesitant to see a different doctor(for obvious reasons) nevertheless, they both practice the ART technique and have since referred people to Dr. Phillips as well. I value the fact that there is consistent care from both doctors and that they really put their patients needs first. Evolve also has a naturopath and as previously mentioned RMTs on staff. They also have one of the sweetest receptionists on the planet which is equally as important as having good practitioners on staff. I don’t think I can recommend Evolve any more than my 5 star rating allows.

I have been seeing Dr. Micheal Sommers for about 3 years now and I couldn’t be happier with Evolve. It’s been exciting watching the clinic grow, and I have only the best to say about the standard of care. Dr. Sommers uses ART — which I was looking for in a Chiropractor when I moved here. Love them! :)
