I can't say enough positive things about The Clinic and about my Chiropractor, Dr. Chad Zimmerman. We believe that chiropractic care is important to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. Let the doctors at The Clinic be the catalyst to help you reach your health and activity goals! If you have any questions regarding our services, please contact our doctors or administrative staff!
The Clinic: Family and Sports Chiropractic became active within the West Fargo community upon establishment in May of 1998. We relocated from our original location on Main Avenue to a larger location within the Pioneer Center in 2002. Our doctors believe that a healthy musculoskeletal system is an important component to living a well balanced, healthy lifestyle.
Being the office manager, Melissa performs our day to day operations. She maintains a well run facility and provides stability within the office. Don't know whether or not your insurance company covers chiropractic care? Melissa is more than willing to help answer any questions you have regarding the payment portion of care!
After we have relieved the initial pain of your condition your doctor may recommend a rehabilitation phase in your care plan. The body is made to move and restoring normal pain free mobility and areas of spinal stability will be crucial to preventing your condition from returning in the future. Our doctors will have you perform a series of motions and activities that show us where you are strong or weak in the areas of mobility, flexibility, strength and endurance.This allows us to create a customized rehabilitation program for you that can be modified as you progress through your treatment plan.

Dr Samantha has been an amazing help for me through all of my heart and health issues and she's very in tune with understanding the body and allowing you to express how you feel about what's happening as well. Her awesome, spunky attitude always lights up my day. I'm so thankful I found her. Hands down one of the best I've ever been to. Thanks Samantha.

I have been going to the sports clinic since 2003 and I wouldn't go anywhere else! Over the years the have expanded their modalities to fit athletes to ordinary people to people of all fitness or non fitness levels. This is why I recommend the clinic- it's not just chiropractic care- they do it all- from cupping to acupuncture Gaston etc. I see Dr. Kiecker and she always finds a time to squeeze me in- if not for some odd reason Dr. Ryan is also awesome to work with as well! Love this place and all it stands for!

I started seeing going to The Clinic and seeing Dr. Samantha about 6 years ago. I had a history of back and neck problems and had seen other Chiropractors in the past but wasn't able to get relief from the pain. After my first visit to the Clinic I instantly noticed a difference after my initial adjustment. Dr. Sam was the first Chiropractor that took the time to listen to what I was saying and offer different type of treatments to help me.
If it wasn't for her, I would constantly be in chronic pain and not be able to enjoy doing the things that I love to do. The entire staff at the Clinic is wonderful and always in a good mood when I arrive. I would highly recommend checking them out. Courtney Emerson

This place is an all around win! The staff learns your name and makes visits personable and enjoyable. Dr. Chad is the first chiropractor that took the time to find what really caused my issues and helped me treat things from the ground up. The care given here is for your long term well being which is refreshing. I highly recommend going here for any chiropractic needs.

I have been going to see Dr. Samantha for over 5 years and she has helped me with a number of issues from knee to IT band, to neck, back and hips. I have also been seeing Dr. Samantha for acupuncture to help with my allergies. I have gotten better results from acupuncture than I have with prescription or over the counter medications. I recommend The Clinic to anyone.

I have been suffering from chronic back / muscular issues for most of 2019. After hearing Dr. Chad on the radio one morning I decided I have nothing to lose. Having never been to a chiropractor in my life, I had no idea what to expect. He told me the same thing my MD did. that the heart of the issue was muscle strain and given the time we would work it out.
Even though at times I had my doubts, Dr. Chad and my MD convinced me to continue the therapy. that it would be my best chance for improvement. I am happy to say that with continued treatment and consulting with Parker (Soon to be Dr. Parker!) with some exercise designed to strengthen core muscles that had been contributing to my issue, I am 95% pain free for the first time in months! Dr. Chad and his staff made a believer out of me.
He took the time to explain (and convince) me as to what was going on and what had to happen and it appears he was right on track! Can't go without mentioning Melissa and Jessica at the front desk and how welcome they make you feel when you walk in the door! Super nice people! Thank you! Have mystery pain driving you crazy? Give these folks a chance! Worked wonders for me!

I found Dr Samantha when my other chiropractor was out of town and referred me there for similar treatment methods after I had coughed a rib out of place. I now visit frequently to keep myself in proper balance after autoimmune injury. Between the chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture and other treatments I'm happy to say I won't go to another chiropractor because I don't believe anyone could do all she does to keep me functioning rather normally. The front desk staff is very kind and courteous as well. Give them a try! You won't regret it!

I can't say enough positive things about The Clinic and about my Chiropractor, Dr. Chad Zimmerman. The staff is extremely down to earth, friendly, and compassionate. I'm always welcomed with a sincere, genuine smile when I walk in the door and for me, that goes a long way! As for Dr. Chad Zimmerman. well you couldn't ask for a more compassionate, empathetic, and knowledgeable person to take care of your healthcare needs.
You can tell the minute you meet with him for your first consultation that this is a man that has a drive and passion for helping others. He will go above and beyond to make sure that your condition/concerns are addressed in a timely yet progressive manner. I have suffered from chronic back pain for about 6 years and was almost ready to give up and simply accept the fact that I wound have to live on ibuprofen and other pain medications, rubs/ointments, supplements, anything to get some kind of daily reprieve from the constant pain I felt that affected every aspect of my life.
Since working with Chad, I'm starting to see and feel a difference! And for me to say that is literally unheard of! I feel like I've gained another family at The Clinic and as long as I keep seeing and feeling the results that Chad told me I would, at our very first consultation. I will continue to be seen my him. Mind you though. you must do everything he tells you to do at home as wellIt's a team effort if really want lasting results. IT'S 100%WORTH IT. THE CLINIC IS THE BEST OUT THERE! HANDS DOWN!

My husband and I have experienced care from 3 of the exceptionally educated providers at The Clinic. The front desk team is efficient and the providers have all been very effective at developing a care plan to decrease the discomfort we have had. We have trusted them with care ranging from workout related discomforts, to care after a fall on the ice.
Sometimes it takes a few visits to get long term results, and other times just one or two. Thanks to their help, we feel great and are able to maintain our healthy yet fast paced lifestyle! If you are hesitant to try chiropractic care, this is a great business to trust your overall wellness to! I appreciate this business mostly because they care about the wellness of their guests and it shows consistently on every visit!
