Patient Experiences

John and Maggie Tatone provide the epitome of thoughtful and knowledgeable care. John is sensitive to my requests and takes time to understand what I need. Maggie is simply the best, caring deeply for everyone who walks through the door. Whenever I need a reset, I call John and Maggie. I’m so grateful to them both!

John Tatone is caring, patient, knowledgeable, and informative. He has a calm approach, he is honest, and he LISTENS! While having an extended stay up north, I was lucky enough to be able to make an appointment with Dr. Tatone. The consultation was the most thorough I’ve ever experienced while he tried to put the puzzle pieces together figuring out the many possibilities that could be causing my debilitating migraines. His wife Maggie was welcoming, knowledgeable, and sincere. They worked as a dynamic duo collaborating and taking care of my needs. I felt like I was getting the VIP treatment. I entered the office with numbness and tingling in my fingers, hands, and feet, a stiff neck and excruciating back pain to the point where it negatively impacted my daily living and activities. I left feeling light and airy, like a 500 pound weight had been lifted from my shoulders. The day after my midsection felt less bloated and I was able to bend over and pick things up without any pain or discomfort. But most importantly, I haven’t experienced a dull headache, or any sign of a migraine coming. Dr. Tatone worked his magic. I feel truly blessed to have found a doctor that listens to what my body was saying. I will make the drive from Southern New Hampshire to Franconia, New Hampshire just to receive treatment from Dr. Tatone.

Superb care and admin! Don't retire!

Thank you! My feet feel amazing! This place definitely knows what their doing!!

John has been an integral part of my overall health journey for almost 5 years. His expert care and spot-on pain relief has improved my quality of life immeasurably. He listens to my ever evolving symptoms and adjusts my care to relieve them. I highly recommend John for outstanding chiropractic care!

I’ve seen Dr. Tatone off and on since 1996 - he’s nothing short of a miracle worker! Feel so much better after every appointment. Highly recommend!!

I have had an ongoing issue with right side sciatic nerve pain, and was treating the issue with massage therapy. That was working until Covid, and from being idle during the pandemic, the pain got to a level that the massage therapy no longer worked. The therapist recommend Dr. John Tatone Chiropractic, and went to him; once and done. In a very short time he had me back walking with no sciatic pain. He and his wife Maggy are extremely professional, and personal. Their Franconia office is clean, neat, and welcoming. So grateful for their care!

Dr. Tatone and Maggie are so welcoming! I went in with lower back pain and Dr. Tatone worked wonders! Three visiat later and I feel like myself again!! 100% recommend!!

Imagine your physician recommending that you schedule an appointment with a chiropractor. Stop laughing, I'm serious. The truth is, that doesn't happen. Chiropractic care doesn't align with Western medical practices. For a back-related ailment, you'll instead be prescribed some muscle relaxants and sent home. You may even get a referral for physical therapy or a pamphlet for self-exercises. I got the pamphlet and was told to look the exercises up on YouTube to see how they were done. My doctor missed the mark on the severity of my pain and mistook my good nature for me not being serious about wanting to jump off a cliff. Dr. Tatone, however, had no problem referring me to someone outside of his specialty when it was the right choice. I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis. According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, it's defined as "...a narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower part of your back." According to me, it's a pain worse than childbirth. Keep in mind that I'm a guy who has been told to not use that comparison around women who may have actually given birth. Dr. Tatone has been my chiropractor for many years. Up until the condition that quite literally crippled me for a couple of months, my visits were merely to address the occasional sore neck or aching back. I went to Dr. Tatone for what felt like a pinched nerve that wouldn't stop pinching. It was in between visits to him that I attempted every other means of getting this baby out of me. My PCP also referred me to a massage therapist. They, too, were dumbfounded when every trick up their soft, warm, comfy, though slightly undersized towel didn't seem to resolve the issue. I chose to stop messing around and scheduled another appointment to get that magical chiropractic adjustment. Dr. Tatone can quickly size up what's causing the discomfort that brought the visit on. There was concern on his face when I told him about my escapades while trying to figure out what would fix this glitch in my system. After a few simple tests to check my nerve response, he politely refused to adjust me again without X-rays and an MRI. Almost in the same breath, he explained how far back surgery had come and that it was no longer done with a hatchet and a fork and knife. I'm paraphrasing, I think he left the fork part out. My chiropractor had just recommended that I may need to seek the help of a spine surgeon. Yikes. I figured I was on my own at that point. I've experienced a few iterations of Dr. Tatone's office. After years with several staff members assisting him, it's now just him and his wife Maggie. It's by far my favorite iteration. The two of them work in tandem. I'll let them say which of them is the brains and which is the brawn, but I've seen them both play each respective role when necessary. I can't even begin to explain how both John and Maggie advocated for me throughout this process and not only pointed me in all the right directions but also continuously followed up with me afterward. It's been 11 months since my back surgery. I've been back for a few adjustments, with the approval of my surgeon of course who chopped me up and put me back together nearly a year ago. He was spoken highly of by Dr. Tatone and Maggie as well. When I told him that my chiropractor had ultimately led me to seek his services, he asked for their name. When I said John Tatone, his response given with great conviction was, "He's a fine chiropractor." I later learned that neither of them had ever met. It was through word of mouth about the care that they each had provided for their patients that instilled the respect that they clearly showed for each other. We all need to be fixed or taken care of at some point. Rather than treating the symptom, Dr. Tatone seeks to address the underlying cause. For me, it's a two-hour round-trip for the opportunity to have whatever I put out of place put back into place and the chance to catch up with two people who show sincere concern and care for my well-being. I'd make that trip any day of the week.

Simply the best!

Thanks for the great adjustment John and Maggie I am in Evergreens Colorado having Dinner and drove past Cooper and Mayas 🙌 God Bless

Dr. Tatone is honest about what he can do to help address issues. He does so without using jargon so patients can understand but respectfully, not talking down to you. He prescribes a treatment plan that works and after a few weeks I felt better than I had in ages. A year later it is time to go back for some adjustments and I so look forward to seeing him and his wonderful office staff. I know they’ll have me feeling great again soon!

Dr. Tatone is very personable. He was able to get to the heart of the issue right away. His treatment is safe and was well worth the trip! Highly recommend.

If you wanna feel great again this is the place to be,the Chiropractor

You can tell who the best Chiropractors are by who they treat. If they treat the other Chiropractors in the area, then they must be excellent. I personally will drive 134 miles one way passing literally hundreds of chiropractic offices for treatment from Dr. Tatone. He is one the best Chiropractors in NewEngland, never mind NH. His skills are just superior!

I come here to get my back adjusted regularly. You feel like a million bucks when you walk out of here. He has actually made my ankle stop hurting also by adjusting it due to bone spurs.
