Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I went to Dr Vander Ploeg when his practice was in Scarborough. He’s wonderful. The decompression therapy he provided me had my back almost pain-free for nearly 2 years after treatment ended. Glad he’s still around, but sad to find he’s moved so far away. So I’m trying someone else. However, if that doesn’t work out, I’ll make the trip to see him again!

Dr. Vander Ploeg solved my pain where no one or no surgery had been able to. He listened to me, had an amazing intuitive sense about my pain and used effective therapies. I tell everyone about him. Thank you!

I have been in pain for years and on medication.I decided to pay a visit to Maine Spine & Nerve and was very pleased with the results. At first I wondered because it took a few treatments before started to notice the pain decrease. After about 7 treatments I was very happy with the results and I am at this time not taking any medication.If and when I meet someone with back or leg pain I tell them about what I did and advise them to at least give it a try. Thank You Dr. Vander Ploeg everything
