I came to PrimeSpine with shoulder and back pain, and after receiving treatment, I’ve noticed a huge improvement—not just with the pain but also with my migraines, which have decreased significantly. From the moment we walk in, we’re greeted by Lanette, who is always so kind and welcoming. Her warm demeanor makes such a difference and truly puts us at ease. My 14-year-old son is also receiving treatment, and Dr. Baker has made the entire experience efficient and effective. My son felt immediate relief after his first few visits, and as a bonus, we’ve seen noticeable improvement in his posture! We are so grateful for the care and professionalism from the entire team. Highly recommend PrimeSpine to anyone seeking quality chiropractic care with a personal touch!

I've been going to Primespine for several years now for TMJ and back/hip issues and Jillian is both personable and professional. She is the best. Shout out to Lanette as well, who is super friendly and helpful as well.

Amazing high quality service from Dr. Ben. I’ve lived in Bellevue for over 20 years For the first 10 I kept trying to find a quality Chiropractor after that 10 years I gave up. About a year ago, I tweaked my lower back and got a referral to this place from a friend and I’ve been going there ever since. It’s what I was always looking for a high-quality deliberately targeted convenience with the ability to schedule online and somewhat last minute. If you’re looking for a chiropractor, I would highly recommend Prime spine

I competed on a high level in Taekwondo in my 20s. I had a great time, making IS trans a couple times. Now I’m in my 40s and it’s catching up with me.I have chronic low back pain from years of practicing combat sport and the injuries that come with it. Found Dr Baker on Yelp and made an appointment.On my first appointment we went over my past physical activities and he was very attentive and focused on my problem areas. He also recommended some stretches and range of motions i can do at home to expedite the pain relief process. At first i saw him 3 days a week due to pain. Then it became two, then it became one. Then it was once every other week. And now it’s once a month for maintenance.He does amazing work and is very attentive to your needs. You can tell he is focused on healing you. He even has flexible scheduling! A few times i had a late appointment at 445pm but wasn’t able to get in until 515-520pm due to traffic and he stayed late to treat me! I have NEVER had a care provider do that for me - willing to stay a little later instead of going home to his family to make sure i get my treatment and stay pain free.This man is amazing. If your dealing with muscle or spinal pain, make an appointment and give him a chance. You wont regret it.

I am an SDE and have been with PrimeSpine for more than four years (both in Kirkland and Bellevue).Their chiropractic and massage services are excellent. The staff are welcoming and always keep you informed about schedule changes or openings.It is such a pleasure to know Dr. Ben and work with him to maintain a healthy spine. As a sports lover, I truly appreciate how Dr. Ben and Jill helped me fully recover from annoying lower back pain and a stiff neck.Jill is an amazing massage therapist. My twice-a-month massages are one of the best moments of relaxation after work.I have recommended this place to all my friends, and now I'd also like to recommend it to whoever is reading this review. 🙂

The staff here are friendly and respectful and the office is nice but the chiropractic service (which is the most important part) by Dr. Baker is really subpar. I have been going there for 3-4 sessions and haven't noticed any effect on my lower back pain other than the cooling & numbing effect from the Biofreeze gel that he applies at the end which doesn't last more than 2-3 hours.I get chronic lower back pain due to bad posture and desk work. The pain used to get *much* better for at least a week after every visit to my chiropractor in California and I have been wondering what makes Dr. Baker's work ineffective. I suspect the difference is that he uses a special table that pops down when he wants to adjust the spine around the lower back. The use of such technique is likely to avoid potential injuries due to a lack of skill in properly adjusting the spine which requires applying an exact amount of sudden pressure by elbow on a specific location of the lower spine.I shared my opinion with him respectfully but surprisingly what I got instead was to skip that adjustment altogether. It seemed like he didn't like to hear the patient's opinion (that's what bad doctors do). Another bad indication was that one expects the initial screening session to include something more than regular sessions (like x-rays, etc) as they charge 3 times more for that session but he only did what he does in regular sessions.*Update: Dr. Baker reached out via email and offered me a full session with x-ray free of charge to investigate the issue. I really appreciate him trying to address the issue.

It was my first time seeing a chiropractor but Primespine Chiropractic didn’t disappoint! I have chronic back pain and Dr. Baker took great care of me. So many chiropractors try to make it seem like a magic fix but he was very upfront about the service, and he was very responsive and patient with my questions. Even though I still have more sessions, I already feel such an improvement in my back and I can’t wait to see the results after coming back a few more times. I really do recommend Primespine Chiropractic if you want quality care!
