I chose Angel Wellbeing Clinic simply because of the student prices, which are very thoughtful of students, and because of a possibility to take x-rays in the clinic.
The clinic has a welcoming, cozy and laid back atmosphere. Most of all, I trust Brian in what he is doing. That makes me feel comfortable.
The treatment didn't cure my back in a couple of weeks as I would have hoped for, but it has given me a better understanding of my back. Most importantly, during the treatment I have learned that my back cannot be cured by someone else but me. My chiropractor can only help and advice me with that. From now on I would not trust a chiropractor who told me that my back could be cured with a few treatments. The chiropractor Brian will probably tell you that the only person who can cure your back is you. Brian will help you to understand how your back works and how with rather small changes in your life you can influence your back's wellbeing. In addition to basic chiropractic treatment, the pain is treated with acupuncture which, at least in my case, has been very helpful.
I would recommend Angel Wellbeing Clinic for all my family and friends with back problems.

I first attended AWC for a back problem that was starting to cause regular problems and keeping me off work for weeks at a time. Since then (around five years) I have had no problems whatsoever. I have found the clinic and all staff to be friendly, welcoming and highly professional. I really like the fact that not only was my specific problem treated, but my overall lifestyle (posture, exercise, diet etc.) was discussed and very useful, practical advice was given for healthier habits all round.

I had not long turned 51, was used to working hard, proud of my ability to lift huge, heavy boxes on a daily basis when suddenly my back gave out on me. My right leg went completely numb. I could no longer walk on my toes. No more high heels! I suddenly felt old. Pure agony and despair!
What to do? I Google “Chiropractors Islington”, jot down a couple of numbers, and then do a phone around. I instinctively like the sound of the receptionist at the Angel Wellbeing Clinic – who happened to be Brian’s Mum on the day – and book an appointment.
Joy! A no nonsense approach. I was informed that my problem was a herniated disc. My GP had given me the same diagnosis the day before but couldn’t offer me an immediate solution. Relief - I knew I was on the right track.
I was assessed and given a suggested programme. It was explained to me both physically and financially. It wasn’t a “quick fix”. It wasn’t the cheapest. It’s certainly working though! It’s a mix of manipulation, acupuncture, chat and a personally tailored exercise routine.
9 months on and I’m definitely getting there. I’ve avoided spinal surgery. I’m down to an appointment every other week. I’m back in heels. I’m back on track.

I found Angel Wellbeing Clinic by the internet. I was first sceptical as I am used to the U.S. Chiropractic. I have to say I was very impressed by the professionalism of Brian, my sciatica was almost fixed after 2 visits. I like the way he uses chiropractic techniques and acupuncture. I recommend absolutely his clinic if you have any back problems or sciatica issues.

I chose Angel Wellbeing Clinic because of its central location and affordable treatment sessions. The members of staff were very friendly and helped calm my anxieties about my back pains. Ever since the first treatments I was able to see an improvement and I was out of pain relatively quickly.
I have recommended this clinic to my colleagues at work who experience back pain and I would definitely recommend it to anyone else.

Angel Clinic is very convenient for me to come to and making appointments is straightforward with useful, flexible hours of availability.
The clinic staff are friendly and efficient, and the chiropractic service is n fuss and effective creating a good sense of wellbeing for me.
I would certainly recommend the clinic to others.

I chose Angel Wellbeing Clinic because of its reputation and most of all.. it’s local.
What I like about the clinic … very welcoming and friendly.
For nearly ten years, I suffered from pain in my left shoulder and headaches. After four treatments, the headaches were gone. During the course of my treatment, I was not treated as one of the patients in Brian’s clinic, but someone who wants to get better and he is there to help. But he did not stop there, every treatment he continuously encouraged me to change my lifestyle and attitudes towards work and way of life – not overnight of course!
With the services I received i.e Pauline ringing to remind my appointment, early morning appointments a real bonus – makes me feel good at work after a treatment! Where else can one find these extras? Highly recommended.

I chose Angel Wellbeing because it’s close to where I live for access for work and has brilliant opening times that suit office hours. It’s a small and friendly clinic, so you don’t feel overwhelmed by a formal atmosphere.
What I like most is that the initial consultation covered all sorts of things about my pain that I hadn’t even thought of and that it was a quick turnaround from first appointment to first treatment. Appointments since have been well timed, again around activities going on in my life designed to support whatever I’ve got going on. The great thing is the combination of treatments used – acupuncture as well as chiropractory depending on how I am at a particular time.
It is taking longer than I thought to get to a manageable stage with my back for a return to ‘normal’, but I have taken away tools for managing pain and my body that I use every day with adjustments and additions made as I keep coming back.
I’ve already recommended the services on to a friend looking for acupuncture treatment as the appointment times will also suit her work hours.

I have been attending the clinic regularly for several years to relieve chronic back and neck pain related to age and my type of work. After an initial more intensive course of treatment we have settled into a routine which has become an important element of a larger regime of exercise and lifestyle changes which has helped me to effectively manage the condition, with the frequency of treatment now sensibly adjusted to how I am feeling. I have recommended the clinic to several friends and will continue to do so, both for the evident skill of any given treatment and for the understanding of how the chiropractic work sits within the bigger context of health and well-being.

I was suffering from back pain for about three years. I tried acupuncture in herbal medicine shops and also different types of massage but it didn’t help for long. I was recommended the Angel Chiropractic Clinic by a friend who lives locally and I am extremely happy with all aspects of your office, the customer service and especially the treatment. I would definitely recommend the Angel Chiropractic Clinic.

I have suffered from kypholordosis scoliosis since my teens and undergone osteopathic treatment on a regular basis for the best part of two years.
Lately I have been having severe headaches, the last one of which lasted over 10 days.
Since I started treatment, my headaches have practically disappeared and have regained lost movement to my back and neck.
I feel like a new person. Thank you.

Brian Bamberger has been treating me for an obstinate whiplash injury since the end of January 2003. I have been impressed by the scrupulous care he has taken, even getting an x-ray before starting treatment.
By August 2003, my shoulders were considerably less painfull and I was able to play the cello for a long period with more comfort than I had experienced for nearly a year.
He has also taken a great deal of trouble over three problems of a friend of mine, even though this person lives too far away to become a patient of Brian's.
I thoroughly recommend Brian Bamberger to anybody who has joint or muscle problems.

Dear Brian,
I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you for your initial help in resolving the longstanding difficulties I have been experiencing with my back.
Thanks to your initial treatment and ongoing regular maintenance support my back is substantially better with the pain and inconvenience I became accustomed to accepting is all but gone.
Feeling as I do I am able to continue with my active work lifestyle and my attempts at maintaining my fitness at the gym.
Many thanks once again,
Yours sincerely
RG
Brian,
I was assigned a project in London from the US and although I was extremely excited about this opportunity with my job, I was terrified that I would not find a chiropractor to fit my needs. After searching on the Internet I came across several chiropractors that handled injuries such as mine. I was drawn to Angel Chiropractic for the small clinic feel and the fact that he promptly responded to my e-mails in an effort to calm my nerves about finding a chiropractor.
When I arrived to London, Brian and Angel chiropractic did everything to make me comfortable. The customer service, flexible schedule, and excellent care I receive, give me a new confidence about travelling with a not so perfect back. I have had several chiropractors through out my lifetime and I can say with confidence that Brian is one of the best. The back is precious and should only be tended to with great care of which Angel Chriporactic can provide.

I've had back problems for many years due to a mild scoliosis in my spine. I can say I'd tried almost everything to help with the back pain and uncomfortable spasms; massages, osteopathy, wearing a back brace, etc...since I started getting treatments from brian, over a year ago, my back has become a lot more flexible and my muscles are no longer as tight and achy. I am extremely happy with the result of his work on my back and neck, even though I have not even been able to attend as many treatment sessions as regularly as I would like.
I have also recommended brian to my mother- whose shoulder pain was miraculously eased in only two sessions of treatment- and my partner Orin who is also another very happy customer, and now visits him regularly.
I must add that another thing I really like about the angel clinic is everybody's very pleasant and friendly attitude, plus the fact that they are very well organised with appointments, reminders, and payment plans. they also have other treatments such as hypnosis, therapy, and massage which are very useful.
I will gladly recommend them to anyone who needs an adjustment!
