Not only is Dr. Block an excellent Chiropractor, but he also listens to you and is very patient. There was a procedure that I wanted him to do and he was obliging enough to do it anyway, even though he himself didn't proscribe to that Chiropractic method. He has a flexible attitude, which is what you want in a professional.. Another thing he does is show you various exercises that you can do at home to help remedy the problems that you might have.. That is the sign of a true professional and not your run of the mill Chiropractor. Oh yeah and his prices are very reasonable too. I couldn't believe it. Thanks Dr. Block! My back is on the mend.

Doctor Block rocks! He listens to all I have to say (even if it's not about my body aches and pains), is very friendly, and works with my schedule.

Peter has been my chiropractor for more than 20 years and he knows my body even better than I do! I first started working with him when he was an intern at the Palmer West College of Chiropractic after having tested several other interns. Once I found Peter, no one else could compare. Whether I'm out of alignment or need a full body massage, Peter has the magic touch. He can go extremely deep rolfing-style with his strong hands or relax my muscles with the greatest finesse. He's all about his patients, with an innate ability to listen, ask the right questions and leave me feeling much better each and every time. I highly recommend Peter for his superb chiropractic and massage talents, his warm and engaging personality, and his complete professionalism and integrity.

Doctor Block is a fabulous chiropractor, and I've been to enough of them to have a good comparison base. His background in the medical field and licensing as a massage therapist increase his effectiveness.

He understands how to adjust all joints, not just the neck and back. In addition to my neck and back issues, he has been very helpful, reducing my wrist, hip and ankle problems. He was even able to adjust me while I was pregnant.

I don't know if he takes insurance or not... you can call him and find out.

I go to see Dr. Block primarily for head to toe massages and he is great! Also knows anatomical structures so well, he can tell if you're doing something wrong with your body. I would say the massages are not superficial nor too deep, so just right and he covers the entire body in an hour. Priced very reasonably and works with my tough schedule. He also has a satellite office in Lafayette on Tues.

Dr. Peter Block has been a blessing to recovering the use of my arm again. I have seen him for 2.5 months and the improvement is remarkable. He came highly recommended by my boss after I didn't know where to turn for help with a frozen shoulder. Surgery was not something I wanted to endure and Dr. Peter helped me to avoid that. I can now get my arm over my head again which I wasn't sure was ever going to happen. He is an excellent chiropractor, very knowledgeable, dedicated and kind.

I found Dr. Block on Yelp because I was desperate for help and didn't want to go back to my old chiropractor. I had thrown out my back and was barely able to walk or do anything else without massive pain. The old chiro was fine at first, but then went all kooky when he started putting vials of different minerals on my throat and asking if I "feel better". Right.

So I walked into Dr. Block's office feeling like I had a 200-year-old body, and walked out nearly pain free. After my appointment two days later, the pain was completely gone. He's given me exercises and stretches to strengthen my back and I'm going back every month now even though I feel great.

I'm a believer in chiropractors again because of him and I cannot recommend him highly enough...you won't be disappointed.

He's a really good guy who listens to what you have to say, and then tells you what he's doing before he does it. And the price is right at $50 a visit.

The best!!! He literally takes our pain away almost instantly. The real deal! Thanks doc!!!

As a vascular surgeon, I see lots of patients who have physical limitations. One of my patients was bragging about how much Dr. Block had helped with his back pain. I asked the patient for the name of their Chiropractor, since I had two previous low back disc surgeries for incapacitating pain. I have been seeing him for 3 years. He is very flexible with scheduling. He is also a Certified Massage Therapist, so he can loosen you up, and then if he thinks it is appropriate, he will adjust you. If by chance he doesn't take your insurance, he does take Health Savings Account cards with pretax dollars to make it easy for you. He gets my highest unsolicited professional recommendation! (And by the way he is a tremendous human being)
