Rippy Chiropractic

I have seen Dr Rippy for 3 visits so far and have seen some real improvements on my lower back. Nancy if can read this, I just want to say thanks a million!

I really enjoy Dr Rippy. She is knowledgeable, direct and very amusing. I am very picky about who touches my spine, but I trust her.

I’ve been putting up with lower back pain from bad posture in an office chair for years because I was terrified of chiropractors. The thought of «adjustments» seemed scary. My roommate said to try Dr. Rippy because she’s really nice and wouldn’t talk me through everything. I’m sooooooooo glad I did. She’s amazing! Explains everything, makes sure you understand what’s going to happen and how long it’ll take to feel better. And she’s very affordable. I would recommend her to anyone I know in Orange County. I’m so glad I found her office :)
Ps– Receptionist is super nice too, always a plus when the whole office is pleasant :)

Dr. Rippy is wonderful. I totally feel like she completely understood my concerns and needs! Her approach is thorough and I felt comfortable in her care. Glad I found her office so quickly after my move. Thanks so much!

After years of living with lower back/​neck pain and a fear of chiropractic care I took a friend’s advice to schedule an appointment with Dr. Rippy. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Thanks to Dr. Rippy’s Chiropractic Care my quality of life has improved substantially.

I had been in pain for over 2 years with my neck and back and then when I started my chiropractic care with Dr. Rippy within 6 treatments my chronic pain was gone and so was the Advil. The staff is great and they always squeeze me in when I call in at the last minute.

Dr. Rippy saw me for the first time and nearly saved me life. She really knows what she is doing and cares about everyone of her patients. Even ones that she has only met for the first time. I would recommend Dr. Rippy to anyone I know.

I’ve been visiting Nancy Rippy for about 16 years now. I say «visiting» because from the very first consultation appointment, Miss Nancy has been much more than a typical chiropractor. She has SO much education, insight, advice, options, and best of all, she almost always, about 98% of the time, has an answer, a reason, and a detailed explanation as to why «you» are experiencing body aches and pains. Miss Nancy gives you more than the average doctor ever will. She actually «visits» with you and listens to you. Not every ailment can be adjusted out; talking it out helps too. I just love Nancy. Always smiling. Always energetic. Always updated on the latest technology. I trust Nancy enough to consider her advice as a second opinion (usually first) if needed medically and I have had her make adjustments on my two kids under the age of 2 years. I would give more stars if I could.

When I began coming to Dr. Rippy, I was in pretty sad shape. Two auto accidents I had been in in the past came back to haunt my neck and lower back. I searched around for doctors in the area, before finding Dr. Rippy, and was disheartened to find that many of them were more concerned with signing patients up for «payment plans» than the health of their patients.
Needless to say, Dr. Rippy was the exact opposite of these doctors. Her primary concern from day one was getting my neck and back into shape. At every visit, she explains what she’s doing, why she’s doing it, and advises at home activities (when necessary) that will further improve the health of her patients.. . and she doesn’t ask me to sign on the bottom line.
Now several months later, I can say truthfully that my quality of life has improved drastically. No longer do I take Advil for my neck and back. No longer do I sit for hours in pain trying to stretch out my neck. Even my husband has commented how the visible lump that used to be at the top of my spine is nearly gone.
If you are looking for a doctor who is honest, intelligent, and trustworthy, I highly recommend Dr. Rippy. I wouldn’t trust anyone else now with my neck and back.

I Got My Son Back!
My 14 year old son experienced multiple injuries during Football season (head, neck, back). He suffered for months with painful symptoms including frequent, severe migraines. Within one visit I knew we were in the right place. Dr. Rippy worked her magic and I got my Son back ! He had a big smile from ear to ear after the first adjustment. She has given my son tremendous relief that is lasting. As a Mom, it is the BEST feeling in the world to know your child is well and not in pain. Iam so grateful that we have a new healer and friend in our lives. Thanks Dr. Rippy !!

I went to Dr. Rippy after I was in a car accident and I could barely walk I has so much back pain! I had never been to a chiropractor before, so I was a little nervous and Dr. Rippy put me at ease immediately! Her care and enthusiasm did wonders to fix me right up. Now I consider chiropractic care an essential part of my overall health regimine.

An old hip injury of mine started acting up and I finally decided I it was time to get some help when I could no longer bend down to put on my shoes. Slow learner. I like to use local services (I’m a Fullertonian) and found good reviews for Dr. Rippy on Unilocal and Facebook. I also looked up her website. It was really straightforward and down-​to-​earth — just like Dr. Rippy.
She had me in for an evaluation in the morning, but didn’t want to do an adjustment due to the inflammation. She took x-​rays, which I’ve never had another chiropractor do, and sent me home to ice my hip. In the afternoon she had me return and she discussed the x-​rays with me before giving me my first adjustment. After four days of being bent over in pain, I was much improved. She warned me that I might be sore, but I wasn’t. She didn’t over-​adjust and she didn’t under-​adjust. She also didn’t start cracking everything with a joint just because she could. I liked that she focused on diagnosing the problem and treating that specific problem.
The office is nothing fancy, but parking is close and easy to find. Her prices are very reasonable. I had no trouble getting appointments, even late afternoon times, and I haven’t had to wait long to be seen. Her office staff is very sweet and helpful. But the best part is Dr. Rippy! She has a great personality. I don’t feel rushed when I’m with her and she has a very positive and caring way about her. I would recommend her even if you’re skeptical of chiropractic, particularly if you’re having an acute neck or back problem.

A couple of months ago, I started having pretty severe pain in my jaw — so much I often wanted to just lay down and cry, except that when I laid down, the pain just got worse. I hadn’t had any decent sleep in over a week. My dentist told me that I had TMJ, that it was stress-​related, and that all I could really do was get a mouthpiece to wear at night and get some serious pain meds. My mother suggested I visit Dr. Rippy and see if there was anything she could do to help. After the first visit, I had some minor relief. After the second visit, I could drink hot beverages again without screaming pain, and was able to sleep through the night. After my third visit, the pain was mostly gone, and after the fifth visit I was good as new, as if nothing had ever happened.
This wasn’t my first experience with Dr. Rippy, just my most recent. Every experience I’ve had with her has been positive. This woman knows her stuff, and will tell you if chiropractic isn’t the answer to you problem. I once came to her with some low back pain, and after describing my problem and doing a little troubleshooting, she told me I probably had a kidney infection, and to go see my family doctor — and she was right on target.

I found Dr. Rippy on Unilocal after I injured my left hip after going a bit too hard kickboxing. A friend recommended I see a chiropractor once she saw the amount of pain I was in walking around. I must admit I was a bit afraid to go to a chiropractor, but within the first week after my first visit, I can’t believe I waited two weeks to find Dr. Rippy!
I was in so much pain, I walked with a limp and could not sleep through the night. Dr. Rippy and her front desk staff were so helpful and friendly during my first visit. I called to get some basic information and was scheduled for a consultation the same day. The very first visit was a consultation with X-​Rays and a conversation about my injury, my health background, my exercise routine, and what chiropractic care is. My next visit included the beginning of my treatment and a discussion of a plan that included a time frame for me to start work slowly working out again (not including kickboxing!). It has been about a month since I began treatment with Dr. Rippy and I feel great. After the first two weeks, I was not in any pain, no more limping, and I could sleep on my left side again. I have slowly reintroduced a work-​out routine that includes walking and a short jog. Dr. Rippy is honest and caring. Her goal is to get you out of pain quickly and then on the road to recovery.

Dr Rippy is a great honest to goodness chiropractor and I’m fortunate to be one of her patients.
I ride a motorcycle a lot. No collisions or anything, I just love to ride. Dr Rippy helps my back stay in alignment and strong.
She’s not a vitamin pusher. She is a listener who pays attention to what you say. She is very mindful of what it takes to get ones spine in shape and moving as fluidly as possible.
The funny thing is, one shouldn’t have to be in an auto accident to visit a chiropractor. Regular maintenance can do wonders!
She’s not pushy at all and lets her patients determine how long a course of treatment should continue.
You may find another chiropractor as good as Dr. Rippy in OC, but you won’t find one better.

I was in an auto accident several years ago and severely hurt my lower back and that is when I began to be a fan of Dr. Rippy. She relieved the pain and has kept my body in good shape and balance since then. Even though I am nearly 80 years old, she has been able to help me function well physically and even play golf.

I moved to this area about a year ago. I hurt my self from a fall and it twisted my back. What a painful experience. I called and made an appointment. While I was waiting for my appointment I noticed the lady at the desk seemed abrupt with people and she even hung up on someone who called. The doctor seemed OK but I have been to much better. I would recommend someone else since there are lots of chiropractors all around Fullerton. I went to a different Chiropractor for my other adjustments who I will give a great review later. BTW I usually give very good reviews for businesses. I was hoping for better but I didn’t get it.

Yup, it’s a ‘Woohoo! As good as it gets!’ rating. I’m a big fan of preventive care, therefore I’ve been visiting Dr. Rippy for the last few months to help me with my half marathon training in the next few months. She has supplied me with informative tips on stretching and dietary choices.
What takes Dr. Rippy over the top, is the notion that she actually LISTENS. Believe that? A doctor that actually listens to a patients concerns. She is a true health care professional, she is very approachable and makes my visits very comfortable.

Dr. Rippy is amazing. I was referred to her by my good friend Rod Miller who was the piano player on Mainstreet USA, Disneyland for 36 years. I will admit that I was very frightened to go to a chiropractor for the first time. I had heard horror stories but Rod assured me that Dr. Rippy was the best. I finally took his advice and have been going for a iltle over a month now. I can say for sure now that she IS the best! I haven’t slept so well in as long as I can remember. I have had back issues and a pinched nerve that wouldn’t go away for years no matter what I tried. I noticed after my very first adjustment that my problems were going to be healed. She is very thorough. The first visit is only a consultation. She talks to you to see what issues you have been having then takes a full set of X-​Rays. When you come back a few days later she goes over your X-​Rays with you and is upfront and honest about what she sees is wrong with you and whether or not she will be able to help you. If you have other issues that she cannot treat she won’t. She will tell you to see a surgeon or another doctor if what she can do will be a waste of your time. I have never met such an honest doctor. The amount of care she provides for her patients make you feel more like you are visiting a close friend or family member. I couldn’t ask for more. I highly recommend Dr. Rippy to anyone seeking chiropractic care. I go to her even though she is out of my insurance network and I pay out of my own pocket. She is also one of the most reasonably priced chiropractors I have seen. It is a bargain for the level of care you receive.
Thank you Dr. Rippy you have changed my life for the better! :-)

I’ve been going to Rippy Chiropractic for over a year and have been thrilled that my back pain and pain in my hips is almost gone. When I first started going to Nancy Rippy, I was regularly in tears because my back hurt so much. The doctor is kind, compassionate and really knows her stuff.
