Dr. Suleman is great - easily the best medical professional Ive ever visited. He is patient and thoroughly listens to patient concerns. Also, he is knowledgeable and passionate about his work.I visited him for a lower back issue after seeing all of the other great reviews. Hes given me a lot of information and exercises to incorporate on a weekly basis to both lessen the pain and strengthen my back joints and muscles. My back is in much better shape these days.

I had a fantastic initial screening appointment with Dr. Suleman. Dr. Suleman took adequate time to really understand the issues with my body in my initial visit. He is extremely knowledgable and personable. I can see myself being a patient for years to come!

I could barely walk and I felt very nervous about seeing a chiropractor for the first time. It was the best decision I made. Just after one visit Dr. Suleman had be feeling better. He is very knowledgeable and personable and I would recommend him to all friends and family. I actually look forward to my appointments.

Dr. Suleman is an excellent chiropractor with good instincts and a thorough understanding of his profession. When I visited his office because I was suffering from severe neck pain he was able to diagnose and pinpoint a nerve impingement in two of my cervical vertebrae which was later verified via MRI. He then chose a specific course of treatment for my neck, traction, which avoided further irritation of my impinged nerve and allowed me to achieve pain relief and better range of motion in my neck. I highly recommend Dr. Suleman and am so grateful for his expertise.

Dr. Suleman is incredibly knowledgable in his field. He explains exactly what is wrong and does not overdo treatments, he only gives you what you truly need and advises you on what you can do at home to help with your problems too. Even if your insurance does not cover chiropractic treatments, he is relatively affordable and definitely worth it!

Miss these types of DR office. Felt very comfortable and not rushed and the I felt the Dr. actually cared. Dr has been in the community for a long time as well and felt he wasnt just trying to get a copay out of us. My husband and I are definitely coming back.

Dr. Shaan Suleman is great! When you arrive, he immediately makes you feel at ease and comfortable. During your appointment, you can expect him to explain everything in detail so you feel confident that you know what the issue is and how he intends to help you. His friendliness and kindness go a long way in making you feel like you and your needs are important. His honesty and integrity are unwavering and his goal is to put you back together as quickly as possible so you and your wallet do not suffer. He is a great chiropractor and the right doctor for you if you are looking for short or long term care!

Today was my first visit, and my first time at a chiropractor as well. Dr. Suleman was extremely well versed and informative. He took careful time explaining every decision he was making to treat me. I am very active and maintain my physical fitness. And Dr. Suleman ensured I knew everything that was happening. He maintains a clean office space and a very open environment to discuss treatment.Dr. Suleman also gave me exercises I can do in my own time to maintain comfort in every day activities. I highly recommend using his practice if you are searching! He’s top notch!

He really cares about helping me get better and improving my quality of life so that I can get back on my motorcycle and the golf course.Also, he is very punctual and gets you in and out QUICK. Literally no wait time! I was even 30 minutes late for an appointment once and as soon I walked in he took me straight back started taking care of me.Best experience with a doctor ever.

Dr. Suleman is top notch -- knowledgable and candid, he takes the time to understand the root causes of pain and discomfort to provide holistic care and guidance. My neck pain is virtually gone after a few visits and I walk out of my appointments with more knowledge on how to take care of my overall health and well being. I completely endorse this Chiropractic professional!! Thanks Dr. Suleman!

This was my first visit to a chiropractor, and I could not have asked for a better experience. I had been dealing with sporadic back pain for a couple of years, but none of the doctors I visited previously were able to help. Dr. Suleman provided a quick diagnosis and was very transparent about my treatment plan. I most appreciate that he listened to my questions and concerns and never made me feel judged. And bonus, the treatment is working! Highly recommend!!

Review №17

I could barely sit/stand for long periods of time. I thought, “This is it...I’m going to be a hunchback for the rest of my life.” UNTIL, Dr Suleman introduced me to TRACTION for 2 bulging discs. First glance at the table, you may question, “What in the world??” However, it’s basically a mechanical bed you’re strapped into that pulls you in an opposite direction from your core — incrementally decompressing your spine with weights. Believe me, after 2 sessions my pain was gone, my posture is upright and now I can sit through a movie and walk the malls again!

I’ve never seen a chiropractor before and was nervous. Dr. Suleman stayed late on a Saturday so he could fit me into his schedule because I was in pain and dint know what else to do. A week and two visits later and I think I’ll actually be able to sleep tonight. He explained everything so that I would understand and was very upfront about costs. He was also kind enough to allow my two kids to attend my last appointment and was very sweet to them. I def recommend him!

Dr Suleman is awesome! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I first went to him 2 years ago with bad back pain due to sciatica, he worked with me over the weeks with a holistic whole person approach until I returned to normal activity. He is extremely knowledgeable and personable so whenever I feel I need an adjustment he is the first doctor to come to mind.

Highly recommend Dr. Suleman! It’s my first time to visit a chiropractor and am very fortunate to select the right doctor for my lower back pain. When I left a voicemail message to set up an appointment, I wasn’t expecting that Dr. Suleman will call me back. I was very surprised when he immediately returned my call despite he’s out of the office and asked the day and time that would be convenient for me. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and explicitly explained in detail what my problem is and treatment that he will be performing, as well as answering my questions. It’s my first session and am feeling better. Looking forward for my next visit! Thank you very much Dr. Suleman for your great service and care for your patients.

Dr. Suleman is very easy to get in touch with in order to make appointments. He is very fun to learn from and was one of the very few medical experts I was able to get into contact with in order to complete my hours for a shadow project. I highly recommend him for other students to shadow if anyone is interested in the chiropractic medical field, he explains medical concepts very clearly and shows a lot of passion for what he does!

This was my first time ever at a Chiropractor. I must say it was a great first experience. Dr. Suleman was thorough at answering my questions and explaining the reason for each step he performed.

Dr. Suleman is fantastic. If you are a bodybuilder, powerlifter, or take your weightlifting seriously, he comes up with a treatment plan that helps you get the most out of your workouts and prevent injury. I’ve been to chiropractors that only focus on fixing the pain that I already experience, but Dr. Suleman also focuses a lot on preventative care and takes your lifestyle into consideration. Definitely go here if you want to feel your best!

I was having neck problems and headaches and Dr. S spent time to understand my history and then quickly resolved the issues. He also gave me exercises to avoid further pain. Importantly, he followed up with me and showed the caring that seems to be lost in the medical profession. When I had elbow problems, he was who I sought and again; issues resolved and no more pain.

Our first visit with Dr Sulieman felt life changing. He was very informative and attentive to our needs. His expertise was apparent. He checked our joints and reflexes on the knees and elbows, as well as any inflamed muscles. He cracked my neck and sides, and adjusted my back. I felt a release of tension and never felt flexible. He showed us how to exercise and relax using a balance ball. My husband sleeps better and were working on posture. I highly recommend this office, and visiting a chiropractor before massages.

Great service, the whole team is very polite and will properly heal whatever issues you may be having. I was in a minor accident & I was treated for almost 4 weeks.

Dr. Suleman is amazing! Before beginning treatment, I was in pain most of the time. Brushing my hair and other simple activities caused me horrible migraines. A drive to the grocery store would result in a migraine that would last at least five days. This all changed for the better after my first three sessions with Dr. Suleman.

Id give 10 stars if I could. Dr Suleman is fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable and personable. I suffered a painful lower back injury and with a few treatments/adjustments and some homework exercises, Im completely pain free. I really enjoyed his whole person approach -- not just focusing on what youre being treated for, but incorporating the other aspects of your life (posture, sleeping position, flexibility, preventing injuries, mitigating the effects of desk work, etc). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

He offers techniques to use on the go to help supplement his treatment plan. Hes personable and very excited to practice his craft. Hes super knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable with his ability to administer treatment. Im been to other specialists who made me feel like I was being herded with the other patients but thats not the case with him. I feel great!!!!

Its easy to give Dr. Suleman 5 stars. Not only is he skilled with gentle chiropractic adjustments, but he is a good listener and problem-solver. He listens carefully to his patients, asks good clarifying questions, and thoroughly explains the treatment plan. I was a little concerned about being able to get appointments when I needed them since this is a small practice, but it hasnt been an issue at all. You can tell that Dr. Suleman is not only good at what he does, but he loves helping his patients.

I have had a lot of back pain for a few years before I started seeing Dr. Suleman and since he has been treating me I have seen great results. He is very welcoming and informative during all of my sessions and he’ll never proceed with a treatment without making sure that you are aware of everything that he’ll be doing. He understands all of my problems and is able to thoroughly correct them.Although I reside 3 hours away from his office, it is mandatory that I make the drive so that I can see him because I know that he’ll give me the help that I need. He’s an amazing chiropractor and I highly recommend him!

I am very pleased with my care at the Franconia Chiropractic Center. Dr. Suleman has been a great help to me and to my upper back and neck. His approach is gentle and effective with very few visits compared to my previous experiences with Chiropractic care. In addition to the care I receive there, I also appreciate the family friendly atmosphere and his kind and friendly demeanor. How else would my daughter and I have ever found out how many neck vertebrae a giraffe has?

Dr. Suleman is the best! He is very personable, and you can tell that he actually cares! I have been seeing Dr. Suleman for probably a little over a year, but only really once a month, and he genuinely remembers me and will pick up conversations that we left off the last time I was there. Also, now I am expecting my first child, and he was able to provide adjustments and stretching suggestions to relieve some of the pain in my hip that my OB had told me to take Tylenol for. A great experience for sure.

Dr Suleman is great. I thought I was coming in for a quick adjustment, but after a quick exam he told me my heel pain was likely from a herniated disc. He sent me for an MRI which confirmed his suspicious. After a few weeks of traction, Im already seeing great improvements and reduced pain.

Review №57

Dr. Suleman is a professional with the empathy required to assess pain, the education and experience to help move the body back into alignment, and the generosity to teach exercises (with respect for patient abilities) that will maintain better posture and reduce pain. He understands the cycle of stress: effects on the body, body response and increase of pain, the body learning to live with that constant pain, causing more stress. He aims to break this cycle.The day before a recent appointment was a very stressful one. The moment he touched my mid-back, he asked me how I was doing - it was the most tense that he had seen me. This is a level beyond the chiropractic care that I have experienced.I have so far had electric stimulation to several places on my back, the rollers (that feel divine) and after several weeks of adjustments and adherence to his exercises, my upper back suddenly no longer hurt. My lower back is still very tight, but it is loosening up and I am regaining mobility. It is glorious to have a daily pain level so drastically lowered.I look forward to every appointment!

Very happy to have found Dr. Suleman. I grew up with chiropractic care being a regular part of my life, but have been unable to find a doctor I liked in this area since moving here several years ago. Dr. Suleman took the time to thoroughly assess and diagnose my problem, with careful consideration of my history, and offered a treatment plan that was comprehensive but didnt require endless visits (and endless expenditures).A good chiropractor knows how to get you feeling better and then sends you in your way. Dr. Suleman is a good chiropractor, and a nice guy.

Dr. Suleman from the very first visit was such a pleasure to work with. His ability to make an action plan to alleviate my pain was very helpful. I was pleased that the plan provided me with different exercises to improve my back. I have been to other Chiropractors in the past who just want to see you every week or every couple of days to get as much money out of you as possible. Dr. Suleman is not this way and it is clear that this is not his MO, he just wants you to feel better. I would Highly Highly recommend him for anyone seeking relief to their body. He also has alternative methods of treatment to really help alleviate pain.

Dr. Suleman is one of the best chiropractors in the area, and I have seen a number of them now. He prides himself on attention and care and he is very thorough with addressing his patients issues. He has shared with me useful exercises that have alleviated much pain in problem areas and since going to him, I have improved drastically.Dr. S will never steer you the wrong way and he only prescribes appointments as he feels necessary to you and your health. I was previously misled by another chiropractor to believe I needed 2-3 visits/week to improve, but going to Dr. S just once every other week has proved I can still feel great with the limited visits.

Review №79

I was impressed with Dr. Suleman even before my first office visit. A close friend of mine had been raving about him for months and recommended him to me when I first considered going to a chiropractor for my neck issues. It took me several weeks to get up the nerve to call because I had never been to a chiropractor before and the idea of someone adjusting my neck made me nervous. By the time I got around to calling, I had decided on a whim to also mention my problems with vertigo – an issue I had been having for about a year and was desperate to overcome, but which had not improved despite many doctor visits and treatments. I initially had a phone consultation with Dr. Suleman and was immediately sold by his response, which made me feel like he was genuinely concerned about my issue and determined to get at the root of the problem. I was also sold and buoyed by his confidence that it could be resolved or at least greatly improved in only 3 visits!! There was no more hesitation after that. Now after only 2 visits, I am thrilled to report that my vertigo has significantly improved! And if that wasn’t enough, all of the glowing things my friend had said about him – how personable and knowledgeable he is (about everything!), his incredible bedside manner – I found it all to be 100% true! Finally, I really appreciated the fact that he explained everything he did before he did it, which went a long way toward easing my anxiety about getting adjusted for the first time.

Dr. Suleman is direct, listens to your concerns, and takes his time to identify and treat the problem. After working with me at the first visit he clearly explained the issue so that I could understand it, told me what to expect as far as healing (and he was spot on!) and presented an attainable plan going forward. I really appreciated the clear communication and knowledge - Dr. Suleman is on top of all the research. Which is so appreciated as I had come to him after having a bad experience with another chiropractor who seemed to have more bells and whistles than depth or helpful advice. I am so glad to have found Dr. Suleman!

I called on a snow day in March and Dr. Suleman was the only one to actually pick up the phone. Incredible bed side manners and although he was closed that day and could not take care of me that same day he was so gentle and such a nice human being that I decided to wait until he was open again. No regrets whatsoever! I ended up having a bulging disk which was causing moderately severe pain in my neck and my right elbow. He began weekly treatment for the first 4 months, then twice a month for two months and now we are down to once a month! I feel great and you will also. Call him and send up an appointment without any doubts that you will be treated by a fantastic professional!!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Suleman’s for almost three years now. I had a stiff neck and shoulder on my right side for three months that did not go away with visits to my primary physician and meds. Within one month, one session per week with Dr. Suleman, my neck and shoulder pain significantly decreased. Now, as a yoga instructor, I see him on a regular basis to have alignment and regular adjustments. Best decision I have ever made and without prescription medications that could further hurt my body. Thank you Dr. Suleman!

I came to Dr. Suleman with a horrible neck pain, which after inspection he informed me was a facet joint. It was so horrible I had trouble sleeping at night. I called in the morning and left a message to which he called me back minutes after and was happy to see me that same day. He is very friendly and very knowledgeable, hes the type of guy who knows at least a little bit of everything! (he even had some suggestions for my poor circulation problems). Hes obviously very anatomy driven and I can tell his main goal is to help whatever condition it may be that a patient has.So far I think this Dr. is extremely capable, competent, and provides a comfortable atmosphere for healing and improvement.

Dr. Suleman is an excellent professional. I found him through Cigna. I called him to ask if he has an X-Ray machine, because I needed take an X-Ray of my thoracic spine. My PCP had ordered me to to. I was not his patient yet, but he took his time to look up a place for me to go. Because of his kindness towards me, I did not return to my doctor for the analysis of my X-Ray, instead, I went to Dr. Suleman. He is kind, patient and did an excellent adjustment on me.

Yesterday was my first visit to a chiropractor, ever, and man, did Dr. Suleman set the bar high! Never have I been so impressed with any doctor after just a single visit as I was after meeting Dr. Suleman. From my initial call when he answered the phone personally to when I walked out of his office after my same day appt, his charisma has made me a patient for life. His welcoming demeanor, gentle nature, and overall wealth of knowledge are truly a gift and anyone who has the pleasure of meeting him will agree. Most importantly, he helped the pain in my back go away nearly 95% with just one visit. Ive been singing his praises ever since. Dont delay, see Dr. Suleman today!

Dr. Suleman is excellent. After several months of on and off neck/shoulder pain I finally decided to give chiropractic a try. His treatments have helped tremendously and Im only sorry I didnt go sooner! He is friendly, warm, personable, funny and takes the time to explain what he is doing. He is also happy to answer any questions or address any concerns you may have. He took the time to listen to what was wrong and was also able to read my body posture to tell what was going on. In addition to his treatments in the office he made recommendations for changes I could make at home that would help relieve the problem. Highly recommended!

Based on Dr. Sulemans approach, I knew that I would be a regular patient. He took time to listen and actively discuss options for me. He is very caring and knowledgeable so I was immediately relaxed and ready for my adjustment. As a middle school teacher, I have ongoing neck and back issues. I choose to take the holistic approach with my life and a GREAT chiropractor like Dr. Suleman will keep me in balance. Therefore, I will be pain free but more importantly re-energized to heal and strengthen my immune system. Dr. Suleman supports my hectic schedule and always makes sure that I can get an appointment when I need it. He is a GEM and I am truly thankful for him!

I am a 29 year old with a lot of on-going physical and medical issues and have seen many doctors and specialists. I have been seeing Dr. Shaan Suleman for five plus years. He is by far one of the most competent, kind, knowledgeable, compassionate and hard working that I have ever experienced. It is very rare that you can find a doctor that combines all of his qualities.1. He makes you feel important and cared for because he doesnt rush through any appointments.2. He takes the time to explain everything that he is doing before, and while he does it, even if it isnt the first time youre having that treatment.3. He is always learning new treatments and methods for managing pain and discomfort.4. He only has you come in if its necessary. You never feel like he is just saying you need to come in every week so he can get paid.5. He is very easy to schedule with, even if its last minute. His hours are set up where you can see him on your lunch break no matter what time it is, which is SO rare and awesome!6. He has been able to help me get relief from my chronic pain, both immediately and long term.7. When you are getting treatment by a machine, that doesnt require him to be in the room, he not only tells you to yell (its a small enough office that you dont have to actually yell) if you need him, but he also comes and checks on you a few times, just to make sure.8. He has an incredible massage therapist that works in his office. He doesnt recommend that every patient go to see her (refer to #4) but when you are seeing both they discuss your treatment together, so you know you are getting exactly what you need.Two examples of him going above and beyond:He has called to check up on me, on more than one occasion, making me feel even more like a very cared for patient, rather than a paycheck. He even called in a favor to get me a same day, emergency MRI when he was very concerned about what was going on with me.I cant put into words how highly I recommend Dr. Suleman, or all of the wonderful things about him, or what all he has done for me, but those are some of the big highlights that I feel like everyone looks for. I highly recommend him and his massage therapist. I have sent multiple co-workers, family members and friends to see them and they all agree that he is amazing.

Ive been visiting Dr. Suleman for 3 weeks now. After continuous back issues and seeing doctors in other states, I can assure that Dr. Suleman is the best at what he does! Ive felt way better in one session with Dr. Suleman, than I have at 3 sessions with previous Drs. He listens to your problems and provides you the best corrective measures in order for you to fix your problem areas. I will certainly continue seeing Dr. Suleman and have already recommended him to others.

I have suffered pain in my leg and hip for several years. I have been to several orthopedic doctors and after loads of x-rays and finally a MRI I was told to take several Aleve and told to come back if it got worse.My fiend at work told me about Franconia Chiropractic Center and I made an appointment and after just the first appointment I no loner had as much pain in my hip and leg. This doctor did not talk down to me like this was just all about getting older. He listened carefully and still keeps asking questions and if necessary tries something a little different. I now under stand how all it works together and what I am going to have to do to make sure I am not just another statistic for getting older.If your in pain and the conventional doctors are telling you this is because you older RUN to Franconia Chiropractic Center and dont look back.

My father is visiting from overseas and eas experiencing pain in his neck and lower back after his flight. We called Dr Suleman who gave us an appointment the following day and accomodated my father even though he has no US health insurance. Dr Suleman was very nice and helpful and went over my fathers complaints very attentively. I would highly recommend Dr Suleman. He is affordable, helpful and very good at what he does!

Dr. Suleman is a great chiropractor. He has helped heal hip and lower back pain through treatments and provided general lifestyle advice for someone that does a lot of sitting throughout the day. Dr. Suleman provides very personalized treatment tailored specifically for you. He always takes the time to listen to your symptoms and explains his solutions thoroughly. Office hours are great and he is always willing to accommodate last minute changes to your schedule. I would encourage anyone having any sort of back pain to visit Dr. Suleman- you will not be disappointed!

Excellent. Dr. Suleman is wonderful. He is very thorough and has helped me tremendously. I began going to him based on a recommendation from a friend. I had been going to another chiropractor that was farther from my house and never seemed to address the root of my back issue, just treated the symptoms. Dr. Suleman was able to diagnose my problem and treat it accordingly. He is the only chiropractor in the area that I have found that uses the traction table. Each time I go I receive personalized care. He is a one man show; he individually sets up each of his patients for therapy, adjustments, books appointments etc. He is personable and gets to know his clients. I am thankful to my friend that she recommended that I go see him, I am sure if I had not I would still be stiff and miserable with back pain. I highly recommend Dr. Suleman. He is currently in the process of completing his training to become certified in acupuncture. I have never had acupuncture, but if that happens to be something I may need or want to try in the future, it is comforting to know I can go to someone that I already trust. He also has a massage therapist on staff. I have not utilized her, but it is nice to know that there is one available in his office so that he can communicate my needs to her as well as refer me to her if medically necessary. A+

When my 18 year old started experience back pain last year, I was referred by the insurance company to a few chiropractors in the area. I communicated to Dr. Suleman several times to be sure that he accepted our insurance, and if he accepted new patients. He was so kind over the telephone, I didn’t think I was speaking to the doctor. In person, Dr. Suleman is a kind, personable person, and he never seems bothered to explain procedures, or answer our questions. Thankfully, my son had the type of back pain that went away with the good treatment and help of Dr. Suleman. I would recommend him to anyone who likes to be treated like a human, not a number.

I had two bulging/torn discs in my neck. I really wanted to avoid surgery and a lot of time away from Jiu Jitsu and the gym. within a month of manual traction, I was back out on the mat and felt great. Dr. Suleman put me at ease and and made me confident I could get through this and better than ever without surgery. My family has since began monthly maintenance treatment to keep them healthy as well.

I hurt my lower back and was looking for a chiropractor in my area . It was Martin Luther King Day and most offices were closed. I called Franconia Ciropractic Center. To my surprise, they were open and Dr. Shaan Suleman was able to see me the same day. I asked him many questions about my insurance and co-pay and he patiently answered all of them.When I came, Dr. Suleman took the time to give me a thorough exam and told me what was wrong and what I needed to do to make me feel better. He answered all of my questions that I had due to my injury. He even wrote down for me what I needed to do step by step in the following week.I had an amazing experience!
