Best care and very professional treatment, the knowledgeable staff makes your visit a very comfortable experience. They also corresponded with my doctor and employer to make the paper work an easy process. And most importantly my shoulder feels much better.

  • Darcy Driscoll
    Chiropractor

    Speaks: English

    Dr. Driscoll has been providing chiropractic care to the residents of the Niagara region since 1998. He has many years of experience caring for people with complex musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. Let his experience help guide you through your crisis! 

    He uses a guided, patient-centered approach as a practice philosophy. The “guided” part of his philosophy refers to educating you about your condition and the treatment options for it. A patient-centered approach recognizes that each person requires different therapies and frequency of visits depending on their problem, underlying degeneration, and baseline health. He will devise a plan of action based on these factors but then can revise and update this plan as care progresses. 

    After completing his Honours and Masters of Science in Medical Biophysics (University of Western Ontario), he completed his Doctor of Chiropractic at Parker University.  While there on a full research-based tuition scholarship, he published peer-reviewed research in medical and chiropractic journals.  

    He is also a member of the Ontario Chiropractic Association, Canadian Chiropractic Association and the College of Chiropractors of Ontario.
