My family has been receiving great care for over 20 years from Dr Fernandez. Beginning with our daughter, I followed, and finally my reluctant husband. We have always received excellent treatment that was remarkably effective.!

An amazing pick me up in the middle of my day! The dynamic duo of Jenny and Dr. Fernandes always radiate good energy and leave me with an air of relaxation after each and every adjustment. Highly, highly recommended!

I started seeing Dr. Pam at about 5 months pregnant, and I couldnt imagine how bad my pain would be without seeing her consistently! Im someone whos had a lot of experiences with lower back pain prior to pregnancy, and as soon as I started to feel pain while pregnant I went straight to Dr. Pam. I have barely any lower back pain now. Best decision Ive made😊

At the end of June, I thought I was facing hip replacement surgery with all the pain and limping with my hip. Dr Pam adjusted my 3 times a week for 8 weeks and now I am pain-free. Dr Pams skills are amazing, and I would highly recommend her!

I have been seeing Pam for years, without chiropractic I would have regular severe migraines. Pam has helped lessen that and I can’t thank her enough! I also am active in sports and she has helped adjust my feet and toes after very long runs which has helped immensely in recovery. Her staff is always super friendly & sincere. Can’t recommend enough!

After struggling for years to conceive (within a decent amount of time) and then sustain a pregnancy, I found Dr Pam and started acupuncture for infertility. Within a month of treatments, I had become pregnant and was ready to begin acupuncture and chiropractic care for pregnancy. Now I am 8 months pregnant and can say that with the help of Dr Pam (and Jenny, of course) I have been able to have a healthy, virtually painless pregnancy with little to no anxiety. Her chiropractic care has kept me active and happy, the acupuncture has kept me sane and sleeping well. I highly recommend her care for any of your needs!

My mom has been seeing Dr. Pam for years and I started going as well. I knew I had some issues regarding my back, as Ive played trombone for many years but had a different chiropractor shrug it off as if it was nothing. I know I was having some other issues as well, so when I had my first appointment, the X-rays showed that my spine is going up my back in a diagonal and we are working on fixing that. Its been helping with my riding lessons as well, since we know where some of my balance issues lie, and the acupuncture is really helping me out as well. Plus, I do like the more holistic feel, as Im trying to step away from taking normal medicine, and the acupuncture is helping with that as well.

This was a very off-putting and disappointing experience. My husband and I wanted to try acupuncture to address the side-effects of IVF treatment. That is what we mentioned when we made our appointment. Jenny told us that she was going to email us the new patient forms, which we never received. She also stated that each acupuncture session was $70. Next, she assured us that the initial consultation where the acupuncturist would come up with a treatment plan was free unless they do x-rays. Today (the appointment day) we went in early to do the paper work. When we inquired as to whether we would receive an estimate for services that they plan on rendering, Jenny responded with “it could be $60 or $100 if you have insurance, but if you are paying out of pocket the doctor determines the cost - it can be $100, $200, $300, I would not know because I am out front.” She however restated that the initial consultation was FREE unless they do X-Rays. After these wishy-washy answers, we were a little skeptical as to what to expect.Next, while entering the premises, there are signs and business cards in the front lobby and the front door implying that Dr. Kim, a board certified acupuncturist works at their location. We thought we would be seen by Dr. Kim as we explicitly specified that we are going in for acupuncture. However, Dr. Pam walked in. She was a very nice person. She made us feel comfortable. But then, she stated that she was not a Doctor of Acupuncture, but has had extensive training in the field of acupuncture. Another thing that felt a little off was that she wanted to do X-rays on me after we mentioned the IVF cycle. When my husband relayed his concerns about X-rays impacting my eggs, she responded with that is a good question. Lets not do the X-rays then.We decided to speak to Dr. Kim hoping to have more clear answers, and to gain an understanding of his approach to acupuncture and choose our provider based on who we felt comfortable with. Dr. Pam and Jenny kindly called Dr. Kim who came to the office 15 mins later to see us. This is when things started progressively getting worse.Dr. Kim was unempathetic, had bad bed-side manner. When we asked him what his approach to acupuncture was, and about his experience, he said that he has questions for us first and he will tell us more later. He started asking questions related to oriental medicine and trying to figure out a treatment plan. He said that he is going to treat us for a long time and had no understanding about IVF whatsoever. He said that he had a lot of couples who ended up with children after he treated them, and wanted to give us herbal medicine. He initially did not understand that we did not want to do it since we are going through IVF and don’t want any interactions. He finally relented after we explained that I have to take many injections as part of the IVF and that I dont want herbal medicines. He then got annoyed at us for wanting to leave the facility so I can go home and take my IVF injections in a timely manner!! He then started to force us to make an appointment for next week. We just wanted to get out and told him that next Tuesday might work for us. He said ok, but you have to pay me now for this consultation. He said that he was NOT related to Wellspring Chiropractic and that he was an independent acupuncturist. When we told them what Jenny had told us, he started haggling with us. He initially wanted us to pay $200 for spending time with us, the said $160. When we told him how we don’t appreciate the bait-and-switch, and we wanted to cancel, he said that today will be free and we can just pay him for acupuncture sessions starting next week. We asked to speak to Jenny or Dr. Pam only to learn that they just left us alone with him without even letting us know that they were leaving for the day!! He then tried to tell us that today was no charge and that we should come back on Tuesday. We are not going to return.

Love this place. The Doctor has magical hands. When I went there I couldnt walk. She told me she will have me walking in 3 days. I was walking in 2. And the staff knows everyone name and treats everyone like family. 5 star treatment.

Dr Pam is one of the most gentle chiropractors I have had. She has helped me realign my back, addressed the pain in my knees and helped my sinus problems. Both she and her assistant, Jenny are very personable and helpful. A pleasant place to visit.

I visit Dr Pam 4 days a week for maintenance. This keeps me feeling well. Dr Pam knows all about the spine & how issues can be helped & handled in her care. I have even had laser for a slammed door injury on my calf.This has really helped me.Thank you Dr Pam & Jenn

Dr. Pam has been a part of our family for 14 years! She has helped my son with chronic ear infections, my daughter with sports injuries, and my neck, jaw, and sciatica pain relief during pregnancy.Not only does she help with my body pain issues, she cares about my family and will often call to check up on us after an appointment.One recent victory for me is after years of not being able to touch my toes...I CAN! Whoop, Whoop! Adjustments with Dr. Pam are gentle, spot on where it is needed, and full of love! I call her a magician because she knows right where it hurts!Thank you to her lovely CA Jenny for being so welcoming when we come in and to the caring nature of her practice!

Dr Pam was an excellent Chiropractor focused on listening to my needs and concerns.Her adjustments were spot on, gentle and effective allowing my own body to adjust accordingly telling Dr Pam exactly what I needed at the time.We were finally within 6 months back to maintenance adjustments before Covid hit. If it were not for our move to Florida we would still be patients. I wish her the best of health and luck in the future.

Started seeing Dr Pam last week and am extremely satisfied! Jenny at the first desk is so easy to work with scheduling and Dr Pam is absolutely amazing! And, my insurance doesn’t cover chiropractic care, but Wellspring is actually extremely affordable too! Thank you so much for helping me out today with my back & neck pain!

Everyone is so kind- from Jenny at the front desk to Dr Pam. Dr Pam is so good at listening to what’s going on with my body and will do a lil extra adjustment or go above and beyond to remedy any pain that may be outside of the treatment plan. It’s a peaceful, clean environment and the sessions are quick and easy!

Since my son started e-learning, he was complaining of headaches, random muscle aches, and some increased anxiety. After seeing Dr Pam for a couple of weeks, I noticed a different child. We have continued to see improvements with each visit. I also appreciate the friendliness and flexibility of the office.

Dr Pam’s firm, yet gentle method of adjustments are effective and more relaxing than traditional chiropractic. I’ve had symptoms that other professionals thought could not be relieved by chiropractic, in fact relieved By Dr Pam. And all this is supported by means of her acupuncture treatments. She is the consummate pro.

Dr. Pam Fernandes is not only a great Chiropractor, but a kind and caring person. She makes sure all is well with every patient before they leave. My hips, shoulder and middle back are better with her holistic practice.

I really enjoy my time at WCA with Dr. Pam and Jenny. My husband and I both get adjustments a few times a week long with our 4 kids. What we enjoy most is the special way she does acupuncture without needles. It’s super fast and has had amazing results.
