2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Primary Care

Active Health DPC

King of Prussia

“My experience with Active Health DPC, led by Dr. Elizabeth Williams-Drueding, has been truly different from any other medical practice I’ve encountered. What makes this organization special is the way care is centered on listening, trust, and thoughtful guidance—not just prescriptions. One experience that stands out is a patient who came to the practice feeling discouraged and reluctant to see doctors at all. Each prior visit elsewhere had left them feeling rushed and sent home with yet another medication. At Active Health DPC, Dr. Williams-Drueding took the time to understand their full story, goals, and concerns, and partnered with them over several months to focus on lifestyle changes, education, and sustainable habits. Through consistent support and accountability, the patient was able to stop one medication entirely, reduce the dose of another, and is now on track to discontinue a third. What went above and beyond was the ongoing access and encouragement between visits. Instead of one-off appointments, there was follow-up, reassurance, and real collaboration. That level of care restored the patient’s confidence in partnering with a physician who truly knows them. Active Health DPC has had a meaningful impact on the community by showing families that primary care can feel calm, personal, and empowering.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Nutritionist

Anderson’s Nutrition

Downingtown

“I have worked with a variety of practitioners at Anderson’s Nutrition, both in person and virtually. Nicole (based in Downingtown) has helped my family in a variety of ways: She reviewed the supplements we were taking to ensure they were the appropriate dosages, and suggested more affordable options; she made suggestions on what to cook/eat to assist myself, my husband and our teen girls with various health issues; she provided me with macro targets/advice to help with menopause and weight loss. Nicole truly has a gift for listening without judgment while providing expert advice that truly makes a difference in my family’s health outcomes. Christine met virtually with my elderly Mom in Florida and truly changed her life: she provided nutrition education since my Mom wasn’t getting enough protein or fiber, which was negatively impacting her health; she made suggestions for small dietary changes that weren’t overwhelming, but had a big impact. My Mom’s health has drastically improved. Above all, Christine’s kind, patient and loving demeanor made my Mom feel supported and respected.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Functional Medicine

Anti-Aging & Longevity Center of Philadelphia

Bryn Mawr

“Dr. Seema Bonney saved my life. Really. I spent 10 years with a ‘specialist’ in another hospital system who could not help me fix what turned out to be a simple problem. Within three months of seeing Dr. Bonney, the problem was solved and I’m looking forward to doing everything I can to enjoy optimal health as I age. I think of all the years I wasted, worrying about something that could’ve been addressed easily, and I feel fortunate to have found Dr. Bonney when I did. My entire family sees her now and we could not be happier with our experience. You don’t feel like you are ‘going to the doctor’ – it’s like going to see a very concerned friend. She gives ample time to discuss any test results and explains everything in simple terms.”

– Dani R.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Sound Bath Experience

Audrey Uchimoto

Berwyn

“What Audrey Uchimoto offers is difficult to describe until you’ve experienced it yourself. When I lie down for one of her sound baths, I feel relaxed and transported — like a dream where my mind finally slows down enough to reorganize itself. I’ve found myself intentionally visiting the most important people in my life during each session, letting my mind wander to them one at a time. It has become a ritual I protect. Her sound baths have helped me face hard truths and get a bird’s-eye view of myself — so that sorting through emotions and life’s pressures feels manageable rather than overwhelming. With my eye mask on and my favorite blanket, I float away from the noise and busy-ness. Sometimes I visualize the most beautiful scenes and memories, evoked entirely by the sounds her bowls and instruments create. I took two friends to experience her work for my 44th birthday, and again in a snowstorm this past winter. Both were incredibly special. That’s the thing about Audrey — you want to share her with the people you love most.”

– Sarah B.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:

“The team at Beatty Harris is exceptional! From start to finish they do it all. Dr. Beatty is incredible at diagnosing and creating a plan for your injury and the physical therapists are so caring and fun.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Lice Treatment

Center for Lice Control

Havertown

“I am nominating the Center for Lice Control for a Main Line Parent Love Award because of Ilene, the owner and main point of contact, who is truly exceptional. Ilene is professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly calming, exactly what parents need in a stressful situation. She approaches every family with warmth and compassion, explains the process clearly, and immediately puts both parents and children at ease. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care make the Center for Lice Control a trusted and invaluable resource for families.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Women’s Wellness

Grace and Glow MD

Horsham

“After having children, I became really depressed with the physical changes that I endured during pregnancy to the point that I had to take medications to get me going on a day to day basis. But after discovering Dr Lee-Agawa and her staff, they helped me find myself again. They’ve been so supportive and I don’t feel judged after hearing other women’s journies through this alternative medicine world. From a simple facial to skin tightening procedures, inside and out, it has helped so many women gain their confidence back with a lasting impact. I cannot recommend this place enough as a new Mom trying to find her identity again. There’s no price you can put on confidence and this MedSpa has definitely helped me value these ground-breaking procedures and technology.”

– Main Line Community Parent

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Pediatric Dentist

Groovy Pediatric Dentistry

Berwyn

“Dr. Jackie and her Groovy Pediatric Dentistry team are truly exceptional. From the moment you walk in, they create a bright, welcoming, and calming environment where children genuinely feel at ease. What truly sets this practice apart is Dr. Jackie’s depth of knowledge and commitment to whole-child care. Her awareness of functional medicine is outstanding—she takes genetic mutations such as MTHFR seriously and provides clear, thoughtful education on appropriate post-treatment steps. Over the past year, my 4.5-year-old daughter needed dental work, and I went in anticipating challenges that simply never materialized thanks to Dr. Jackie’s compassionate, child-centered approach. I also had concerns regarding my daughter’s airway and palate, and Dr. Jackie took the time to thoroughly educate me in this area, which I deeply appreciated. The entire office staff is consistently kind, attentive, and professional, making every visit seamless from start to finish.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Chiropractor

Dr. Jenn Hartmann – Integrative Wellbeing & Chiropractic

Wayne

“Even after more than 15 years of serving families across the Main Line, self-nominating is always difficult. From the very beginning, this practice was built on a belief that healthcare could be delivered differently — with more time, more listening, and more respect for the whole person. Long before concierge care became a trend, we believed care should be personal, accessible, and deeply accountable. We’ve never followed cookie-cutter systems or rigid dogma. Instead, we’ve focused on patient-centered partnerships — addressing unresolved pain, dysfunction, performance, and long-term wellbeing by integrating the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of health. We have always stood behind the work, the values, and the standard of care we’ve committed to for more than a decade — and helping families continue to find thoughtful, individualized healthcare within our community. No matter the outcome, I’m grateful for the relationships built, the trust earned, and the opportunity to serve the Main Line in a way that feels aligned with how care should be delivered.”

– Jennifer H.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best CPR Classes

Main Line Family Education

Devon

“My husband and I are new grandparents. Our son and daughter in law took the infant CPR course and asked us to do it. We haven’t taken CPR for a number of years, so this was a refresher for us. But it ended up being so much more. We feel so much more comfortable taking care of our granddaughter after taking the course, especially with her just starting solid foods. Our instructor Graceann was excellent- it was a 2 hour interactive course that flew by. I would encourage everyone with young ones to take this course. They also offer other great parenting classes too.”

– Suzanne S.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Personal Trainer

Maria Rossi Fitness

Gladwyne

“I cannot recommend Maria enough! As a postpartum mom, I was struggling with not only my physical health but also my self-confidence. From day one, Maria was incredibly understanding and compassionate, making me feel comfortable and supported throughout the entire journey. She helped me set realistic goals and held me accountable in a way that was motivating, not overwhelming. Her positive attitude and encouraging words kept me going, especially on days when I didn’t feel like pushing myself. Maria helped me with my nutrition, providing simple, effective strategies to lose weight while feeling strong and healthy. Her approach was never about quick fixes or drastic changes; instead, she taught me sustainable habits that I could maintain long-term. She truly made this journey so much easier, and I feel more energized, stronger, and happier than ever before. If you’re a mom looking to regain your health and confidence, I highly recommend her as a personal trainer and weight loss coach.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Sports Nutrition & Distance Running Coach

MeganSports RD, LLC

Broomall

“I started my running journey in 2024 absolutely clueless and with no running experience whatsoever. I had a huge goal, though — London Marathon 2025. When I started working with Megan, I immediately knew I made the right choice. There were highs and there were lows to my training but Megan was there for all of it. Her expertise in nutrition and running led me to the starting line feeling confident and prepared, and carried me through to the finish line. I could not have achieved my goals without Megan. Her love for the sport is contagious and I am so thankful to have a new love (borderline obsession!) for a sport I swore was unlovable a year ago.”

– Main Line Community Member

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Menopause Coach

Menofit by Maria Pavlov

Merion Station

“What sets Maria apart is not just her deep knowledge of women’s health and menopause, but the compassion, safety, and empowerment she brings to every woman she works with. She meets women exactly where they are—physically, emotionally, and hormonally—and helps them reconnect with their bodies with clarity and confidence. Through her coaching, Maria has helped countless women feel seen, heard, and supported during one of the most misunderstood stages of life. She educates, advocates, and guides with integrity, evidence-based tools, and real-life understanding. Her work breaks stigma, replaces fear with knowledge, and reminds women that menopause is not an ending, but a powerful transition. Beyond her expertise, Maria leads with heart. She is deeply committed to women’s wellness, long-term vitality, and helping women reclaim their strength and sense of self.”

– Roula D.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Physical Therapist

Mindful Movement Physical Therapy

Swarthmore

“Andrea is an extremely knowledgeable and compassionate physical therapist. I initially saw her for pelvic floor physical therapy – after seeing several others before her. Instead of focusing on what I was doing ‘wrong,’ Andrea harnessed my strengths (which were few at the beginning!) but she really individualized the approach for me. I finally made some real progress with Andrea and would say my issues are now completely resolved! Since then I have also seen her for a few upper back/neck/shoulder issues and she has been very helpful. She is usually able to get me in for a visit within a few days. She has a beautiful and calming office space and yoga studio. Her yoga class is suitable for beginners but she adapts her classes for all levels. She gives you 110% of her undivided attention and is committed to really getting you healed. I highly recommend her!”

– Allison G.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Pediatrician

Nemours Children’s Health, Radnor

Radnor

“As a parent of two neurodiverse teenagers, finding a pediatric practice that truly gets our family has made all the difference. Our recent annual checkup visit reminded me exactly why we trust Nemours Radnor. Both of my kids came in anxious about vaccines — as many teens are — but Dr. Megan Speare has a gift for making young patients feel respected and heard. She made the entire experience feel safe and manageable.
When my youngest became lightheaded after his shots, the team didn’t miss a beat. The nurse and additional staff were immediately at his side, calm and attentive, giving him the time and space he needed to recover. It was the kind of response that only comes from a team that genuinely cares. They were also proactive with my daughter, who had just turned sixteen. Without me even asking, they prepared and sent me home with all the signed paperwork she needed for her learner’s permit. When the time came, that step was completely seamless — because they had already thought ahead for us. The office itself is welcoming and well-organized, with thoughtfully separated spaces for sick visits and well visits. We’ve seen multiple doctors here and every single one has been exceptional. Nemours Radnor doesn’t just take care of kids — they take care of families.”

– Sarah R.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Orthodontist

Phamily Orthodontics

Wayne

“Our family relocated to the area over the summer and everything felt unfamiliar to us. Our first local appointment was with Phamily Orthodontics. As soon as we walked in, it was evident that their motto, ‘Where every patient is family,’ is an adage they truly live by. Dr. Parnes and Dr. Rubin are the kindest, most talented orthodontists we have ever visited. Dr. Rubin caught something with my son’s alignment plan that our previous orthodontist had missed and was able to fix the issue and set his smile up for perfection. Dr. Parnes, upon hearing that we were new to the area, went above and beyond to connect me with another mom with same aged children! When have you ever been to an orthodontics practice who does this? I could not recommend Phamily more! If that wasn’t enough, they are also super talented designers – their office is exciting and stunning! From the warmth of Michelle at the front, to the gorgeous ambiance and extraordinary expertise, Phamily is the best orthodontist on the Main Line!”

– Chelsea F.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Optometrist

See La Vie Eyecare and Eyewear

Bryn Mawr

“We can see! My daughter and I both have astigmatism, and we tried two different places to get prescriptions. Both rushed and didn’t really listen to our feedback that things still weren’t clear, so the prescriptions just weren’t right. Main Line Parent directed us to Dr. Volkert. She has very modern equipment and did a complete eye exam including high resolution retina photos that she reviewed with us. Her phoropter is remote controlled, so we sat in the chair while she drove from her desk, and she took her time to hone in on what we really needed at a distance and up close. Her frame selection is great with high fashion options, and the lenses are made on site. Dr. Volkert and her staff are fantastic, such a great experience.”

– Jonathan B.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Therapeutic Massage

Soul to Sole Integrative Therapies LLC

Lower Gwynedd Township

“I am honored to nominate Nicole Madsen of Soul to Sole for the Best Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork Award. Nicole is an exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled practitioner with a deep understanding of muscle movement, biomechanics, and how the body holds tension. As a physician whose work often involves long hours and physical strain, I struggled with significant neck and shoulder pain related to my profession. Nicole was able to identify the root of the problem quickly and address it with targeted, therapeutic massage. Her work was not only effective in relieving pain but also educational, helping me better understand how my body moves and where tension originates. Nicole’s approach goes far beyond a standard massage. She works intentionally, listens carefully, and applies her expertise with precision and care. Her treatments are thoughtful, therapeutic, and tailored to each individual’s needs. The relief I experienced was meaningful and lasting, not temporary. What truly sets Nicole apart is her combination of technical skill, intuition, and genuine commitment to helping people feel better in their bodies. Her work has a real impact on quality of life, and her clients benefit from both her expertise and her authenticity.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Community Center

The Wildflower Collective

Havertown

“I had the pleasure of meeting and eventually collaborating with Rachel Roshani, the owner of Wildflower Collective this year. As a perinatal therapist and a clinician who has been working with mothers for over 15 years, Rachel’s space and mission is an absolute MUST for our community and our mothers. I wish this place existed when I was a brand new mom. When Rachel isn’t being an amazing photographer to families, she opens her space up to host and hold events that bring women together, educate them, normalize their struggles and worries. Wildflower Collective is a great place to attend a moms support group, meet other moms in the neighborhood, attend an event on working parents, and so much more. And for the lucky moms who live close enough to it, she also has set hours where a parent can just come in and use her space to work, take a break from the isolation of motherhood, or try and meet another mom friend. Back in November when the SNAP benefits froze, Rachel quickly pivoted and put together donations and food collections to get food in the hands of families. This is what she and her space is about.”

Tina Ho MD, Facial Plastic Surgeon

Wayne

“I would like to nominate Tina Ho, MD Facial Plastic Surgery for recognition by Main Line Parent. My experience with Dr. Ho has been outstanding—she pairs exceptional surgical skill with genuine compassion and a true commitment to patient education. She listens carefully, explains clearly, and ensures every patient feels supported and confident in their care. Dr. Ho’s natural, personalized results and attention to detail set her apart. Her entire team creates a warm, welcoming environment that reflects professionalism and kindness. Dr. Ho has made a meaningful impact on both her patients and the broader Main Line community, and she is truly deserving of this honor.”

– Nicole M.

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Best Pelvic Floor Therapy

Uplift Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy

Horsham

“Dr. Rachel and Dr. Nicole have the best goal and detail oriented evaluation and treatment of pelvic floor disorders. They were the first clinicians that I felt truly listened to me and my situation, not just looking at my diagnosis. Everyone who I have talked to about Uplift has gone and found hope, strength and met all their goals in the office. I can not say enough good things. Going from needing multiple Depends a day to running without leaking is truly life-changing.”

Village Wellness

Berwyn

“Village Wellness is a home away from home for all their clients. The staff take the time to truly understand your needs and provide you with the best holistic care there is. Their ability to provide a sense of calm and peace in a busy hustle and bustle life as a parent is truly amazing. Without fail, you leave Village Wellness energized and ready to tackle all that parent life brings you! I specifically see Lance, but have interacted and had services with several other staff members. At a time when my child was dealing with serious bullying, acupuncture with Lance centered me and helped provide me with calming practices for myself that I also took to my child. He went above and beyond being an acupuncture practitioner and showed that he truly cared for me and my family’s well being.”

2026 LOVE AWARD WINNER:
Mental Health Champion

Whole Heart Reproductive Mental Health

Philadelphia

“Under the leadership of Perri, this practice has made a profound impact on the community by providing compassionate, specialized care for women navigating the complexities of perinatal mental health. Perri’s dedication to supporting women and mothers extends far beyond the walls of her practice. She has been a tireless advocate for women’s mental health, offering education, resources, and unwavering support to those who need it most. Through her work, she has not only provided individualized care but has also enriched the broader community by hosting impactful educational screenings, raising awareness about crucial reproductive mental health topics, and serving as a voice for women through her deep-rooted involvement with the Postpartum Support International (PSI) Pennsylvania board over several years. What sets Perri apart is not just her expertise but her genuine warmth and openness. From the moment I met her, she exemplified collaboration, kindness, and a deep commitment to improving mental health care for women. She is always seeking ways to enhance her practice and expand her reach to better serve mothers and families. Whole Heart Reproductive Mental Health is truly a pillar in the community, providing essential, life-changing care to women.”

Ardmore Eye & Optical

Ardmore

“I brought my son in to have an eye exam and he could not have been happier with the service and expertise that the staff provided. Dr Ormando and Dr Patel were both incredible and took their time with us. We got my son fitted in contacts and the training he received from Tori had him putting the contacts in and out easily by the third try. We were able to find the perfect glasses for both of us with help from the optician Michael. I can’t say enough good things about this practice and can’t wait to see how everything looks once they are remodeled.”

2026 FAMILY FAVORITE HONOREE:
Pediatric Dentist

Bala Kids Dentistry

Bala Cynwyd

“I’d like to nominate Dr. Sheedeh Madani at Bala Kids Dentistry for Best Pediatric Dentist. To say that my 8-year-old son has a serious fear of the dentist is an understatement. He’s a confident and capable kid, but at every previous dental exam he has had to be physically held still while kicking and screaming—literally—just so the dentist could attempt to clean his teeth. It’s been heartbreaking to watch him be so frightened and uncomfortable. Dr. Sheedeh Madani at Bala Kids Dentistry is truly remarkable. She took the time to help my son feel safe and comfortable, and it made all the difference. Her care goes far beyond what you typically expect from a pediatric dentist. Yesterday, I watched my son sit in the chair for an exam without needing to be held, without screaming. Seeing him calm and cooperative was an emotional moment for me. If your child has anxiety or fear around dental visits, I cannot recommend Bala Kids Dentistry enough. We’ve tried many offices, and none have prioritized patient comfort the way they do. Dr. Sheedeh is truly the best.”

“Be Well With Beth has been an amazing resource to me personally and professionally for over 7 years. Not only does she provide realistic and creative ways to nourish your body and take care of yourself as an overwhelmed parent, but her services (stroller workouts) connect other moms together which is so essential, especially in the postpartum days. Beth has been an amazing resource to moms for years. I have also had the pleasure of referring clients to her and get tons of positive feedback.”

Bryn Mawr Orthodontics

Bryn Mawr

“This office is exactly how a doctor’s office should be! From the moment you walk in, the staff knows your name and makes you feel so welcome. There are games and snacks and great music is always on! The day I arrived the staff were having a ‘red carpet’ party for a teen who finished her braces. So fun! Chrissy the Treatment Coordinator made my son feel comfortable right away. He was actually laughing a lot during the exam and he typically doesn’t like going to doctors AT ALL. Chrissy and Dr. Segal took time to explain what was going on with my son’s teeth. I had many questions and they answered them all. My son started braces in the summer and since then we’ve had the chance to meet the rest of the staff. 100/100!”

“I am proud to nominate Dr. Yang for Best Orthodontist. Our family had an outstanding experience—I completed Invisalign treatment, and both of my children received braces under Dr. Yang’s care. Dr. Yang is professional, patient, and incredibly skilled. Every visit was efficient and welcoming, and my kids always felt comfortable and supported. The treatment process was clearly explained, and we always felt confident we were in excellent hands.
The results have been amazing. We are all so confident with our smiles, and the impact has truly been life-changing for our family. Dr. Yang is deeply deserving of recognition for exceptional care and results.”

“Kat understands what it’s like to be a mom juggling a career, young kids, and the various seasons of life. She brings such a positive and bright energy to her clients. She reminds us that being strong and healthy is for you, not to make someone else comfortable. Her message is important especially now with ads for weight loss drugs targeted at women everywhere we go. She has helped me realize that I am strong, I can lift that heavy weight, and it’s ok if my best for today looks different than last week because life happens.”

Chiropractor

McCormick Chiropractic Main Line

Paoli

“I’ve seen so many chiropractors over the years that I honestly stopped expecting anything to change. But working with Dr. Shannan has been completely different — she has helped me in ways I didn’t even realize were possible. She doesn’t just listen to my words; she listens to my body. There’s something incredibly intuitive about the way she finds the exact spots where pain or tension is hiding and treats them with such care and precision. After years of living with chronic pain, I almost forgot what it felt like to move without bracing myself. My hip and knee pain used to keep me from the spin classes I love, and I had quietly accepted that as my new normal. Since starting treatment with her, I’ve felt a kind of relief I hadn’t felt in years. What sets her apart isn’t just her skill, but her deep awareness of the whole person. She can sense the pain, stress, and emotion my body carries before I even say a word. That kind of presence is rare. And her dedication goes far beyond her practice walls. I watched her come to the hospital to adjust a client who had been in a long, stalled labor. I was nearly certain a c-section was inevitable. But after Dr. Shannan’s adjustment, everything shifted — the labor progressed, and the baby was born vaginally. Watching that unfold felt nothing short of remarkable.”

Meredith Murphy, Licensed Acupunturist

King of Prussia

“Dr. Meredith Murphy is not only a quintessential professional and expert at pain management, she took it upon herself to learn the Federal Worker’s Comp system (not an easy task!) in order to treat not just myself but any injured-on-duty Federal employee. She has kept me from needing or being dependent upon medication and there are no words to adequately describe the gratitude for that. Her ability to help my body help itself would be plenty of reason to sing her praises but she also ensures I receive treatment with economic justice.”

Pediatric Dentist

Sidekick Smiles Pediatric Dentistry

King of Prussia

“Our experience at Sidekick Smiles was truly something special. I brought my 8 and 12 year old, and from the moment we walked through the door, it felt different from any other pediatric dental office we’ve ever been to. The team welcomed us with genuine kindness and both of my kids immediately relaxed. The atmosphere is bright, positive, and designed to make kids feel confident rather than nervous. Dr. Deep took his time with each of them, explaining every step in a way they could understand while still keeping things fun. My 12 year old needed to have a baby tooth removed for orthodontic reasons, and I was expecting some anxiety. Instead, she felt calm throughout the entire process. Dr. Deep talked her through everything, and afterward she said it didn’t hurt at all. She was so proud of herself, and as a parent, that meant a lot to me. My 8 year old loved the interactive parts of the office and kept talking about how he felt like a superhero during his visit. Both kids left smiling, excited, and already asking when they get to come back. What impressed me most was how personalized everything felt. Nothing was rushed. Every moment showed how much intention and heart went into building this practice. You can tell they genuinely care about kids and want them to feel safe, empowered, and confident. They created a space where children actually enjoy their dental visits and feel good about taking care of their health. We’re so grateful to have found them.”

Eligible children are identified by the school districts on free and reduced lunch lists. They serve roughly 65 students a year.

2026 FAMILY FAVORITE HONOREE:
Chiropractor

Ultimate Health & Chiropractic Center

Bala Cynwyd

“Initially, I was just looking for chiropractic services but found that Dr. Gilbert‘s office also had a lot of information and products for health. I’ve been pleased with the practice and the way in which he cares for us as patients. He looks at each patient holistically and what would be best for them. His philosophy is naturopathic. I appreciate the fact that he educates us as well as treating us. I’ve also been very happy with the chiropractic care which has made my back feel much better with each visit. The doctor’s office follows up regularly to see how I am doing, which I also appreciate. Dr. Gilbert has a wonderful bedside manner and is truly genuine in his care. His staff is top-notch and professional. I would recommend this practice to anyone looking for chiropractic care and general health and wellness.”

Pediatric Dentist

West Side Kids Dentistry

West Chester

“We were referred to Dr. Riina’s office after a somewhat unnecessarily traumatic dentist experience for my son. They had recently opened and were able to see him almost right away and take care of the issue. The staff and Dr. Riina welcomed us kindly and changed the whole messy situation into a huge positive. My son looks forward to seeing his dentist now and she makes sure he’s taken care of.”

“I have been a patient for the past seven years. Dr. Varano, Barb, Ashley, and Jessica are a super team. Collectively, they ensure my treatment plan is being followed and Dr. Varano will adjust when necessary. Since starting with this practice, my life has changed for the better. I would recommend that anyone who is age 40 or older, female or male would benefit from a consultation and any testing they may recommend. Since starting here, I have experienced a decrease in pain with my RA as well as better quality of sleep and a decrease in my sugar levels. Aging can be a very positive experience when you are given the right medical advice and are provided with the appropriate tools. Dr. Varano is a 10 out of 10 and I highly recommend him to anyone.”
