Dr. Meyers has seen Jason both at high and low points in his care. It was at those low points that Jason was glad he could go see Doc Meyers. “When I’ve come in during my bad episodes, she’s been there to help.

This is another opportunity to work with people who haven’t had access to care in the past, resulting in more awareness of the benefits of chiropractic,” says Dr. Hinkeldey.
