Ive been seeing Andy for 25 years. He brings all his substantial knowledge to give me the best possible result and life wouldve been quite different without him. Excellent.

Andy is extremely friendly and professional! My back was really painful which made it difficult for me to sleep at night. After the treatment three months ago. I am feeling like 18 years old.

I've been going to Wahroonga Chiropractic Centre for over 20 years. Andy Filan is the best Chiro I've ever been to, and I'm always urging friends and relatives with back or other problems to see him. He keeps abreast of the latest research and applies it carefully. Andy has even manipulated my head to drain my sinuses! I thoroughly and unreservedly recommend Andy - Best Chiropractor ever, in my opinion.

Andy is the most fabulous, personable and reliable chiropractor! He listens to what you have to say and easily explains what is happening and how best to treat it. I suffered constant back pain and struggled to move without pain until I started to see Andy. I can highly recommend him!
