Today we celebrated Margaret’s hundreth birthday. “This is Dr. Patch my chiropracter. He has kept me going all these years. I do all the exercises he taught me every day. If it weren’t for Dr. Patch, I wouldn’t be here to enjoy my birthday with all of you

I went to Dr. Patch for the first time when my regular chiropractor was on vacation and I immediately recognized in that first meeting, that he was a One-in-a-million practitioner and that I’d be in really great hands. I have received such great results that I’ve never returned to my previous Doctor. Now, it’s been over 20 years!
I had become accustomed with my former Doctor, to going in, receiving a quick spinal adjustment and leaving within 5 minutes without ever having any input as to what my problems could be or why I never improved.
In my first meeting with Dr. Patch, a turning point came when he said, “You can’t experience major results while continuing the same behaviors and old habits; patterns will need to change.” He then proceeded to explain all the problems he had observed just by watching me, including my head protrusion and bad posture, something no other doctor had taken time to do before.
Dr. Patch actually takes the time to thoroughly get to know his patients, their history, their medical reports, their habits and behavior and then makes a comprehensive plan of how to accomplish the necessary life changes in order to receive maximum results. I made so much improvement in just the first year with him, and equally important, he gave me valuable input that went beyond getting an adjustment in order for me to make healthy changes and gain a new perspective on a long-term treatment plan.
I had never in 12 years of seeking neck and back pain found any health care professional to be as kind, caring, thorough, intuitive or effective as Dr. Patch. He has an instinctive ability to find the problem and then fix it in a completely gentle and painless manner. I consider him to be quite brilliant in his field and am proud to call him a friend.
In addition, I can not say enough about his top notch staff. He has the nicest, most efficient, caring people possible that greet you every time with such friendliness and genuine warmth. I’ve come to know them well and really appreciate what extraordinary people they are and how much they stand out in today’s world.

I have been a patient of Dr. Warren M. Patch on-and-off for 17 years. Because I am involved in many impact sports such as: Downhill Skateboarding, Mountain Biking, Motocross, etc., I need to keep the body limber. Around 2017, I started to experience a severe pinching nerve in my neck which caused a tremendous pain that ran down my left arm to precisely my elbow. I could not even complete a simple task, such as lifting my arm to package boxes in our warehouse. Getting to my keyboard was even a struggle. After an evaluation and a couple of subsequent visits with Dr. Patch, my pain was relieved. I’m 100% convinced in the efficacy of the Professional Chiropractor.
Dr. Patch is incredibly thorough, his explanations are usually filled with analogies or stories from his life’s experiences. Relating your pain with visuals helps grasp why you are in his office. I now realize that like a car, my body needs a maintenance checkup with Dr. Patch every 45-60 days. I am grateful to his wife Natalie who reminds me of my visits because I am bad at keeping my schedule organized. I appreciate what they both have done for me over the years. Their professionalism and friendly demeanor make the trip from Mira Mesa to Ocean Beach worthwhile!

Dr. Patch has treated me many times over the past twenty years for a lower disc dislocation. When ever my active life style causes my low back to misalign, I know I can count on Dr. Patch to straighten me out and keep my body functioning at a high level.
He does this in usually a week or less and always with a thoroughly professional demeanor and personalized service. I have brought my whole family to see Dr. Patch and have always been pleased with the results.

At age 67 I decided to let out my Inner Cowboy. The G-forces are tremendous when I’m riding my cutting pony, and I rely on my good friend, Doctor Warren Patch, to keep my spine aligned so I can stay upright in the saddle!

Because of an injury when I was in the US Marines, by the time I arrived at Dr. Patch’s office, I was only able to walk a very short distance with the aid of my wife and a cane, dragging my left foot behind me. I was on so much pain medication that I was only awake and functional for a few hours a day. My personal life was virtually nonexistent. After more than three years of pain and endless treatment without relief, my determined effort to find an answer led me to “The Wizard of OB.”
The first consultation with Dr. Patch was very thorough covering everything from my case review, medical history, X-rays, and MRI findings. He put all the findings of fact together and recommended a schedule of treatment that included doing simple Qi Gong exercises at home, applying ice, and using a healing meditation tape. Dr. Patch went on to explain what he would expect of me and what would be necessary on my part including the fact that I would have to quit smoking so that my body could heal. My wife and I made a promise to each other to quit cigarettes forever. Dr. Patch and I started working together. It is imperative that the patient be fully engaged in the process to reap the benefits, there can be NO Half-Steps Here, None!
Dr. Patch’s treatment has given me my life back. I now walk daily, something that I have not been able to do for a few years. I no longer have a need for the cane that has been my best friend and constant companion for the past few years, thanks to some special adjustment to my knee joint. I am able to walk without dragging my foot and I no longer experience endless days of never-ending pain. I no longer require heavy doses of pain medication. I am able to walk with my wife and enjoy the stroll, both of which were impossible before my relationship with Dr. Patch. I have experienced a Total Life Style change.
Dr. Patch has always been willing to go the extra mile, in that he took extra time to show me how to do some of the exercises when needed and his words of wisdom like, “Share the Bliss” and “Live with Grace,” along with countless others that always kept me inspired even when the results seemed slower that I would have liked. Dr. Patch certainly exercises the philosophy of “Truth in Caring.”
I thank Dr. Patch for his expertise in all areas of treatment, (Mind Body & Soul). I do not believe the treatment would have been as successful, if it were not for him and all that he brings to his patients, their treatment and care. I will continue to Smile, Breathe Deeply, and Live with Grace as I have been taught. I will forever be grateful for my relationship with the “The Wizard of OB.” Thanks a thousand times, Warren, for all you do and for helping to keep my head on straight, you are truly a blessing… continue to be blessed …be you… BE LOVE!…Namaste’

My name is Billie, Before I saw Doctor Patch I had badheadaches and would vomit for three or four days from the pain. My spine was off-center and it forced pressure on my neck and caused all this. I started receiving adjustments in 1986 when I was 64 years old, and have been coming here ever since. I know when I start feeling bad, I come right in for a treatment and then I’m off and running again. Since coming to Dr. Patch for the past twenty-four years, he has made it possible for me to live a good life. Because of these treatments, I’ve lived a full life.
(Our dear Billie Locke passed away in October 2021. We all celebrated her 99th birthday in April, and she was still smiling and dancing.)

Just a quick note about my experiences with Doctor Patch- I have had treatment from other chiropractors and I have to say that Doctor Patch really understands each person’s individual needs. I put my body through a lot racing off-road motorcycles in the Baja 500. When I return from a race, he sets me back in alignment. He does not over-sell me with excessive visits. For that reason I am a repeat patient. I come in on an “as-needed” basis and I am greeted with respect every time. Thanks Patch Family Spine Center
