Morrison Chiropractic — Local services in Ellicott City

For the past 15 years I have come to the practice of Dr. Morrison and his team whenever I have needed help with any serious back/neck issues, sciatica nerve, healthy maintenance, and the latest saga of tendinosis. This group has never let me down! They have always gone above and beyond my expectations. I am a very active person, whether at the gym, tennis, pickle ball or golf, and thanks to Dr. Morrison I still am able to play all these sports. After my discectomy, I was left with leg pain and nerve damage in my foot. I was very discouraged and didn't see a way back. Dr. Morrison never gave up on me and helped me mentally as well as physically figure out the right path to my healing. He was my biggest cheer leader on the 2 year journey as sometimes healing can be much slower than we imagine. I am forever grateful for his patience and kindness during my visits. He always explains what we are working on so I can understand it and not feel overwhelmed. I had moved out of state last year and when I developed tendonitis/tennis elbow this past Fall, I tried to go to a local PT office and I was given way too many exercises that were also too aggressive and my condition worsened. I decided to drive back to Maryland to see Dr. Morrison hoping this may be something he could help me with even though it was my forearm and not a back issue. He did an evaluation and explained that I actually had Tendinosis. He set me on a new path of simple and correct exercises and suggested I try Dry Needling with Dr. Dubin. They also gave me a whole education on what had happened to my tendon and a timeline to heal. I went back 2 months later for another dry needling session and to update my strengthening exercises. I am beyond thrilled today to say I am back on the court and the golf course and I am pain free!!! It took almost 4 months and actually sooner than we had even anticipated. I know I have to pace myself and continue all the exercises, but this has once again been a life changing experience. I am not ready to give up doing any of my favorite activities and Morrison Chiropractic has always supported and encouraged me to keep on doing the things I love. The team here is like no other! Dr. Dubin did an amazing job with the dry needling. At each session he was gentle and kept me calm as I do not like needles but knew it would be worth it in the end. The dry needling absolutely helped speed up my healing. I thank everyone in the office, to the front desk that always finds a way to fit me in, to the therapists that teach me the proper technique for each exercise. I miss you guys, but I know you are always there when I need you. I would give you 10 stars if I...

UPDATE: Fast forward several years and I am STILL a huge fan of Morrison Chiropractic! I've been seeing Dr. Morrison as a maintenance patient for awhile now and he is, as always, amazing. However, Dr. Morrison recently took a short leave of absence, which coincided with a new injury of mine. As a result I began seeing Dr. Jonathan Boebinger and he is nothing short of amazing! He has a strong positive energy and a calming demeaner that always puts me at ease during my sessions with him. I find his method of adjusting to be very intentional and gentle.

Dr. Jonathan is also a wizard when it comes to dry needling! I have received dry needling treatment in the past, but found it to be fairly uncomfortable, although effective. Dr Jonathan's needling methods are surprisingly gentle, especially compared to my prior experiences, and I'd even say that it's been more effective. I always leave my appointments feeling like a million bucks!

Morrison Chiropractic continues to be my go-to place for musculoskeletal pain treatment. It is a truly wonderful practice, and I've loved ALL the doctors. Honorable mention to Dr. Nealon, who has never treated me, but he always smiles and greets me if he sees me in the waiting area. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention how wonderful the rehab floor staff is - they explain the exercises thoroughly and make the time I spend exercising fun and pleasant. Last, but not least the front desk staff is also lovely and attentive.

This practice is a gem. If you're in need of a good chiro, Morrison Chiropractic is your best bet.

Original Review: I've been going to Morrison Chiropractic for over 2 years and I can't recommend them highly enough. Prior to my experience with this practice, I was terrified at the thought of seeing a chiropractor! I was forced to face my fears when I injured myself while working out. A friend suggested that I go to Morrison Chiropractic and I was able to be seen the same day that I called. Practically speaking, I saw such improvement between my 1st and 2nd appointment that I was sold on the benefits of chiropractic. At Morrison Chiropractic it's more than just adjustments - they teach lifestyle modification, helping you re-learn how to move in ways that won't aggravate injuries! They also focus on rehab exercises helping you get stronger and less prone to injury. Over the past couple of years I've learned just how much I can depend on the folks at Morrison Chiropractic to help me problem-solve various aches and pains and they always have a solution that WORKS. Do yourself a favor - go to Morrison Chiropractic and tell them that...

UPDATE: The owner of the practice contacted me and discussed my concerns with me. He was very attentive to my reasons for leaving treatment. He validated my concerns and apologized. I really appreciated his call and followup.

The front office staff was nice. You could tell that the physical therapy texts were just regurgitating a script for each move from the tone in their voice. They didn't tell me how many sets I was doing or if I needed to make any corrections to my posturing (there were no mirrors in the workout area). I had 3 appointments with Dr. Abosh before he raised his voice at me about my medical choices. I have never had a doctor raise their voice at me before and I walked out a few minutes into the appointment. I have been to doctors all over the country and have had 5 surgeries and NO ONE has had such terrible bedside manner as Dr. Abosh. I told him that I had gone to see a pain management specialist that had discussed a comprehensive care plan and Dr. Abosh vehemently disagreed that I should see other doctors about my treatment. It was him and no one else, or he wouldn't see me. I don't know who in their right mind wouldn't allow a patient to have other doctors treating them or even second opinions on treatment. I get where he was coming from with the concern of overlapping treatments, but he was out of line with his tone and his demanding manner about it. Dr. Abosh told me that he knows exactly what I needed and only he could help me with chiropractic procedures and I could not do anything else while I was being treated (no yoga, workouts, stretching, physical therapy, stim...NOTHING). After 10 years in pain from a car accident, I know my body and know that I need to be keeping myself active and healthy, besides any treatment. I know my limits - I'm a grown woman. While he was was telling me that he was right and I didn't know what I was doing with my treatment, he flubbed up on some words and slapped himself across the face to set himself straight. Talk. About. Weird. We then argued about my treatment so far (because he wasn't listening to me and berating me like a child) and I told him that my neck had been hurting me and that's why it wasn't able to be treated at my last session, and he argued with me saying that I was totally fine after my last session. I told him that I will no longer be seeing him and left. I do NOT...
