Wonderful welcoming staff. Dr. Mercer explained everything in detail and outlined several courses of treatment for me. I felt comfortable and I was walking with less discomfort after only one adjustment. I'm looking forward to my next one!

Lilia Garcia

I had an incredible experience with Dr. Mercer! From the moment I walked in Dr. Mercer took the time to thoroughly assess my condition. I felt welcomed and at ease. The office environment is warm and professional, and the staff is friendly and attentive. I noticed a significant and a drastic reduction in my back pain. I highly recommend Dr. Mercer to anyone looking for relief and a chiropractor they can trust!

Mercer Family Chiropractic is absolutely the best in Sarasota! 10 weeks ago I was in excruciating pain and thought it was my knees. Turns out the problem was in my spine and now I am walking painless, taller and exceedingly appreciative of the care I received. From the very first visit I knew I was in the most kind, caring and professional office I have ever experienced. The entire staff is top notch!

Response from owner

Thank you for an excellent 5-star review! It is awesome to hear that Dr. Mercer was able to determine the proper treatment plan for the pain you were experiencing and that his proper diagnosis revealed the spine was the the source, rather than your knees, as you thought. Our office staff is like non-other. We want every patient to know and feel that we see you, not as part of a herd, but as the special and unique patient you are. Thank you for noticing and giving staff such glowing remarks.

Mercer Family Chiropractic is hands-down one of the best healthcare experiences I’ve had. From the moment you walk in, the staff is welcoming, professional, and genuinely caring. The chiropractor takes the time to really listen, explain what’s going on with your body, and tailor treatment to your specific needs—no rushed appointments or one-size-fits-all approach. I noticed real improvement not just in my pain, but in my overall mobility and day-to-day comfort. The office is clean, calm, and family-friendly, and you can tell they truly care about long-term wellness, not just quick fixes. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and results-driven, Mercer Family Chiropractic is the place to go. Highly recommend!. These appointments have become apart of monthly routine. I have noticed a huge difference very the better.

Response from owner

Thank you for giving Mercer Family Chiropractic a 5-star review. Dr. Mercer sets the standard for caring, professional atmosphere in our office. We are elated to hear you are noticing a difference and feeling better.

If you haven't done Shockwave Therapy, you are missing out. Back in May 2024 I got diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. After getting two injections in my foot, sleeping with a boot at night, changing my shoe inserts , and stretching every night, NOTHING was helping. I couldn't even walk sometimes. I went to see Dr. Mercer because of neck pain, he spoke to me about shockingwave therapy and how it could help my plantar fasciitis. I canceled my foot appointment and decided to give it a try. Let me tell you, after 8 treatments let me tell you, my pain is gone. Hallelujah, thank you Jesus and Dr. Mercer. My last treatment was back in July 2025 and I am free of pain. Do your research and see if Shockwave Therapy is for you before you decide on doing surgery. P.s. my neck pain is gone as well.

Response from owner

Thank you for sharing your extraordinary experience in having shock wave therapy for your plantar fasciitis. Dr. Mercer and the entire staff love that you have taken the time to give such a superb accounting of your treatment and that you neck pain is gone as well.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Life-Changing Experience with Dr. Mercer! After enduring six spinal disc fusion surgeries and spending years in a wheelchair, I had nearly given up hope of ever walking unaided again. But after just one visit with Dr. Mercer at Mercer Family Chiropractic, my life changed in a way I never thought possible. Dr. Mercer took the time to really listen, understand my history, and tailor an approach specifically for me. I honestly don’t have the words to fully express how grateful I am — I no longer need my wheelchair, and I feel stronger and more mobile than I have in years. His knowledge, compassion, and healing hands are nothing short of a miracle. If you're struggling with chronic pain or complex spinal issues, do yourself a favor and schedule an appointment. Five stars doesn’t feel like enough! Thank you, Dr. Mercer!

Melissa St. Louis

This morning, I woke up with pain in my right shoulder . I’ve always known I needed to see a chiropractor, but like always, I put it off—until the pain hit. After seeing my brother post about this office on Instagram, I reached out around 9 a.m. the next morning. Vicki was so kind and respectful—she could hear me struggling with my little ones and still handled everything with patience and care. She quickly booked my appointment for 11:45 a.m. and even verified my insurance before I arrived. The office is very clean, and the prayer box was such a touching detail. They’re not just focused on getting you out of pain—they’re also willing to pray for you, and that speaks volumes. Brenda guided me through the paperwork, gave me a tour of the office, and was incredibly helpful the entire time. Dr. Mercer was professional, kind, and very knowledgeable. I truly appreciated how he took the time to explain everything to me in detail. I’m already looking forward to my next appointment. If you’re wondering whether you should come to this office—do it. You won’t regret it.

Response from owner

Thank you for your amazing 5-star review. You have captured the spirit of our office in your comments. Each of our staff plays an integral role not only in the treatment of patients, but we truly care about each one and give our best to convey that feeling.

I have been going to Chiropractor's for over 40 years in different States. Now, having Severe Neck Pain, Right Hip & Knee Pain & of course my lumbar. I feel very fortunate to have found Dr. Carle's Practice. I First started going there this past February 2024. There are several medical applications like traction, roller tables & stimulation that can help you , besides receiving a proper adjustment. They also offer excellent massage. The reception area is very nice, clean & comfortable with simple easy check in & the nicest lady's to help you out & answer your Questions. I have had both Dr. Carle & Dr. Mercer adjust me & find them both Excellent Doctors. I'm looking forward to my next visit . They also take my Medicare Insurance witch is a Big Help to me.

My experiences keep getting better. Yesterday was my 3rd visit & I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Mitchell, what a wonderful family man of God. Waiting on mentioning the amazing staff until I get all their names. Anyway the rate their healing me? Grandbabies get ready! We should be able to be together sooner then we thought. "Father I lift Dr. Carl, Dr. Mitchell, their staff up to You in Jesus name." They are an answer to prayers. I'm not sure what I did ? First review was removed but gives me a chance to correct. Dr. Mitchell Monday is his correct name. Dr. Monday. Copy paste 1st review below: First time appointment was a really wonderful experience. Warm & fuzzy staff. Dr. Carl made me feel at ease and did you know he was an Eagle scout! If you knew what went into accomplishing that (my son also accomplished) you would be as impressed as I was. I have follow-up appts so I'll keep you posted. 1

I came to Dr. Carle with excruciating pain in my shoulder blade with numbness going all the way down into my fingers. I followed his treatment plan faithfully and I was completely healed. I also continued chiropractic treatment through my pregnancy, and my delivery was less painful and so much easier than my previous two deliveries of which I did not have chiropractic treatment. Not only was my treatment excellent, but Dr. Carle and his staff are so kind. I always leave the office feeling well cared for.

My son Dylan has made 3 visits with very little progress and minimal pain relief. My son is there for only 4-5 mins and he's done. In my opinion Carle does not spend enough time with my son for $52 a visit and initial $90 fee. I would not recommend!

Response from owner

I am so sorry you feel this way however if the treatment plan was followed per doctors advice I am sure the outcome for your son would have been a better experience.

Brenda Pastorick

About a year ago in the state of frustration, experiencing great pain in my back and complete numbness of the ring and pinkie finger of my left hand, I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Kenneth Carle, as he had been recommended by several family members and friends. It was on a Tuesday and Carle Chiropractic Clinic does not schedule patients on this day of the week. However, being the compassionate and caring office they are, exception was made and Dr. Carle saw me immediately. The office staff made me feel like I was their most important focus each and every time I had a scheduled office visit this past year and I actually looked forward to each appointment. Dr. Carle's counsel and adjustments have resulted in complete relief from my back pain and feeling is completely restored in the last two fingers of my left hand. This entire experience has made a believer out of one who previously did not believe that a chiropractor was even a consideration for any ailment of the human body. The Christian atmosphere of the office decor is soothing in itself, but the Christian love displayed by the office staff and Dr. Carle made me feel at home - safe and secure - knowing my heavenly Father had provided a place of comfort from my pain.

Years ago I blew up my back while on Active Duty with the USAF. I am still a reservist and I need to be capable of passing the PT test to stay on duty. That is where Dr Carle comes in. He keeps me shape and ready for duty. He is a good man who runs a business dedicated to the glory of God and the health of his patients. His staff is friendly, caring and professional. If you decide to give him your business make sure you try the Spinilator, a piece of equipment that I cannot recommend highly enough. 10 minutes on it and I feel like a new man.
