Batavia, IL Drs and Health Practioners

The practices of chiropractic care, acupuncture, traditional medicine, and overall wellness find a nexus in Doctor of Chiropractic Tariq Ahmed, who heads Roselle Chiropractic and is also on staff at St. Alexius Medical Center. He and his staff treat back pain, muscular strain, sciatica, and other ailments with gentle, low-force techniques. They also perform gait analysis, in-house rehabilitation, personal training services, and Revitalight light therapy to provide patients with comprehensive wellness.

Under the direction of Dr. George Tsatsos, Dr. Svetlana Zats, and Dr. Kevin Massard, the staff of Ankle N Foot Center performs podiatric and medical aesthetics services equally adeptly. Doctors can craft customized orthotics from patients' digital measurements, diagnose problems with in-house x-rays and ultrasounds, and help heal injuries with physical-therapy programs led by a penitent stiletto heel. Clients on already happy feet can waltz toward the medical salon, where aestheticians use medically sanitized instruments and safe, natural products to exfoliate feet and polish nails.

Believing the human body can be rejuvenated through more methods than medicine alone, the staff at Brinka Health and Wellness Center utilize various holistic techniques to bolster patients' well-being. Doctor of Chiropractic Ryan Brinka, who became a strong believer in the profession in college after a chiropractor eliminated the pain resulting from a childhood neck injury, eases discomfort by adjusting the body's spinal column. The staff further shoos away pain with oriental medicine, acupuncture, and massage therapy. Life coach Brenda Brinka keeps patients in shape during her 12-week weight-loss program by tailoring exercise regimes, recommending dietary supplements, and blasting a bullhorn whenever clients pick up a donut.

Dr. Azad and Associates, strive to accommodate families at Familia Dental, with time slots for working parents on evenings and Saturdays and an indoor play area for youngsters at this preventive and cosmetic practice. Its orthodontics, whitening services, and traditional dentistry finesse the smiles of both kids and adults using technology such as a digital x-ray machine, which releases 80% less radiation than its analog counterparts and 90% less radiation than Spiderman’s big toe.

With more than 10 years of experience, Dr. Harj Khaira oversees the technicians at Lake Street Dental as they keep patients' smiles shipshape with a combination of general and cosmetic procedures. In addition to periodic cleanings and examinations, the practice's services include crowns, bridges, and veneers, which aim to hide damaged or discolored teeth more effectively than a camouflage mouthguard. Dr. Khaira performs minor oral surgeries—including root canals and extractions—and, as a certified Invisalign provider, he can help straighten wayward chompers without affixing braces. When he isn't working at his practice or traveling to dental seminars to learn about new technology and techniques, Dr. Khaira dedicates his time to providing professional dental care for charitable organizations.

As a nursing-home administrator, Dr. Frazer witnessed the deleterious effects that follow a lifetime of poor health habit and resolved to make a difference in others' lives without falling back on what he saw as an overreliance on medication. Today, he serves as the doctor in a chiropractic clinic whose philosophy emphasizes preventive care and the positive presence of health, rather than the mere absence of disease. His chiropractic adjustments, which generally entail a quick thrust to a vertebra, can comfort the spine, nerves, soft tissues, and muscles. In keeping with the clinic’s holistic approach, Dr. Frazer’s treatments are complemented by massage services, nutritional advice, and exercises that keep your nostrils from getting all flabby.
