Don't walk run to see Dr. Dette! I waited too long to get relief! When I was in my teens I had back surgery for scoliosis to "fix" it. I never had any issues until about two years ago (I just turned 64) with constant pain in my hips and legs. I was told by doctors never to go to a Chiropractor because of the rods in my back. Previously doctors diagnosed me with arthritis/bursitis and offered lots of medication/steroid shots. I was taking Ibuprofen frequently to manage the pain which only worked for a day or so. Even walking was painful. I tried everything-massage, exercise, PT, etc. Then I found Dr. Dette. I didn’t expect immediately relief but that’s what I got. After my first appointment with Dr. Dette, most of the nerve pain has subsided significantly. I do not have to take Ibuprofen anymore! I strongly recommend Dr. Dette!

I can’t recommend Dr. Dette enough! Before my first visit, I was experiencing severe lower back pain and was having a difficult time walking normally. After my very first adjustment, I noticed an incredible improvement and was able to walk normally again. The relief was almost immediate, and it made a huge difference in my daily life.<br><br>Dr. Dette was very communicative throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain what was causing my pain, answered all of my questions, and provided valuable advice on how to prevent future back problems. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for his patients really stand out.<br><br>I also want to recognize Jeremy at the front desk. He is always friendly, welcoming, and extremely helpful whenever I call or come into the office. Great customer service from start to finish.<br><br>If you’re dealing with back pain or looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about your health and recovery, I highly recommend Dr. Dette and his team!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️<br><br>I’ve been seeing Dr. Kevin Dette for several years for chronic low back pain and sciatica, and I can’t say enough good things about him and his practice.<br><br>When I first started treatment, I was dealing with constant pain that affected nearly every aspect of my daily life. Dr. Dette took the time to understand my condition, develop a treatment plan, and help me manage my pain in a way that allowed me to continue working, supporting my family, and maintaining my quality of life. His adjustments, recommendations, and overall approach have made a significant difference in my ability to function day-to-day.<br><br>What really sets Dr. Dette apart is that he genuinely cares about his patients. He listens, takes the time to answer questions, and always treats you like a person rather than just another appointment on the schedule.<br><br>As a veteran, I was also pursuing a VA disability claim related to my back injury. Dr. Dette thoroughly reviewed my records, documented his findings, and provided professional medical support that helped accurately reflect the severity and history of my condition. His willingness to help and attention to detail played an important role in my claim process.<br><br>If you’re looking for a chiropractor who is knowledgeable, professional, compassionate, and truly invested in helping his patients, I highly recommend Dr. Kevin Dette and Pacific Family Chiropractic.<br><br>Thank you, Dr. Dette, for everything you’ve done for me over the years.

Dr. Kevin Dette is an amazing man. My visits with Dr. Dette started in 2004 with my desire to be cured of the debilitating pain I was experiencing. After several treatments, it was clear that there are layers of knowledge to chiropractic treatment that are unappreciated by most people like me.<br><br>Once I began to learn the seemingly endless benefits of chiropractic care, it has become a major staple of my life. Dr Dette’s personal, friendly, and professional approach is undergirded by additional information given for the maximum benefit of the treatments. Pacific Family Chiropractic is where you want to be if you’re serious about your healing and ongoing health. Best to you all and the Pacific Family Chiropractic.

We started going to this chiropractic office after our previous chiropractor retired, and we are so thankful the reviews led us here because it definitely did not disappoint.<br><br>The doctor is extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and very precise with his adjustments. You can truly tell he cares about his patients and takes the time to understand what’s needed. He takes the time to listen and explain things, which we really appreciate! The staff is also incredibly attentive, welcoming, and helpful, which makes every visit a great experience.<br><br>We’re very grateful to have found this office and highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality chiropractic care!

I absolutely love my weekly visits with Dr. Kevin. It goes beyond the adjustment. I feel seen and heard when I come in from the moment I walk in to when I leave. While I take care of myself day to day, I truly believe I haven’t been sick at all in this past year simply because of my adjustments helping to keep my systems in alignment. It’s preventative and a worthy investment for your health

When my long-time chiropractor retired 11 months ago, it was my good fortune to select Dr Dette (PFC - Pacific Family Chiropractic) from among the many choices in North County. It was like winning the lottery, as Dr D has exceptional knowledge of anatomy, and there is no guess-work when he performs gentle but effective manipulations. At the outset, I said he was one of the few who ‘paid attention’ in Chiropractic School. He ranks in the top 2 of the 15(?) chiropractors I’ve known.<br><br>Having been injured in five collisions over a 40-year period, I’ve suffered from chronic neck and back pain and depended on weekly adjustments to relieve muscle spasms of neck/whiplash, mid and lower back. I was resigned to living like this….but to my surprise, after 10 months of treatment by Dr D, the spasms and pain have subsided significantly. My neck no longer feels like it’s locked in a vise-grip, and my back is noticeably more relaxed. Life is hopeful!<br><br>I highly recommend PFC. The office is well-run, there’s never a long wait, and there are 3 therapy rooms with high-tech roller tables. The staff? Warm and welcoming!

Pacific Family Chiropractic is the best place for chiropractic care. I’ve seen many chiropractors over the years and Dr. Dette is, by far, the best. Every visit, he knows exactly what is needed and I always leave feeling better. A few months ago, my husband threw his back out and had a full spasm where he could barely walk and Dr. Dette had him better in 24 hours and back to full capacity in less than a week. He helped me during my entire pregnancy and now adjusts my two children under the age of 5. My son was 3 years old when he was first adjusted and, like most kids, he was aprehesive about going to the doctor. Now, he gets so excited to see Dr. Dette and runs straight to the room and gets himself on the table. He is the only chiropractor I would trust with my children and the only chiropractor my husband and I will use. The staff is always friendly and welcoming and every time I walk in, it feels like I’m seeing family. No better choice for chiropractic care!

I feel like that alone says a lot about the experience you can have.<br>Dr. Dette answers my questions thoroughly, is informative, offers suggestions, and offers outside resources.
