HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?
Do you have back pain? I have been in practice as a doctor of chiropractic for over 13 years and have treated patients from all over South Florida from Florida City to Orlando. What distinguishes me from other chiropractors is the amount of time I spend with my patients. I don't believe in the "mill" type practice, where some chiropractors try to cram as many patients as they can into the day and see patients for 3 minutes each. I routinely spend up to 45 minutes (one on one) with my patients. I also provide
home visits or house calls for patients that have a difficult schedule, their car was damaged in an
accident, or if they are in too much
pain to get into the office.
WHERE ARE WE LOCATED?My practice is located in the Health Circle Family Medicine office in the Sunset Lakes Publix shopping center where I practice with Dr. Robert Tomchik, MD., a well respected and accomplished medical doctor, if patients require more than just alternative therapies. The office address is 18475 Miramar Parkway, Miramar FL. 33029.
WHAT KINDS OF PATIENTS DO WE TREAT?Although my specialty includes all trauma, particularly
automobile related whiplash injuries, I see patients with various complaints. For example:
-
Whiplash which includes the low back or lumbar spine.
-Headache
-Radiating pain
-Numbness/tingling into extremies
-Shoulder pain
-Jaw pain or TMJ
-Disc herniations and bulges
-Sciatica
-Wellness care
WHAT INSURANCE IS ACCEPTED?
Our office accepts all PIP and all PPO coverages. We offer affordable cash plans as well, for those who don't have coverage.
BACKGROUND OF DR. HIMMEL
Dr. Himmel has been licensed and has been practicing since 1995. "I have practiced in Miami, Homestead, Naranja, and Orlando. Since moving from Dade County to Miramar, I have been the only chiropractor that is located west of I-75 on Miramar Parkway. However, my office draws patients from Miami to Orlando.
Dr. Alan Himmel is a Florida Native. In 1990, he received a Bachelors degree in biological sciences from the University of South Florida, and in 1995, received a professional
Doctor of Chiropractic Degree from Life University, in Marrietta, Georga.
Dr. Himmel is also a board member of a non-profit organization called Share International Foundation

Cystic Fibrosis research, and proudly co-authored a published research article which outlines a revolutionary new treatment for Cystic Fibrosis sufferers.
Additionally,
Dr. Himmel is the president of Florida Allstar Public Adjusting, Inc. This is a public insurance adjusting firm, where he represents people against their insurance companies for homeowners and commercial insurance claims. He is licensed and bonded in the state of Florida to help his clients resolve tough insurance claims. (
