I'm lucky to be her patient.

I sought out chiropractic care as a last resort to treat a back injury over a year ago. Today, I recommend chiropractic care to everyone I know! Dr. Markos is hands-down the best care provider I've ever had. She is attentive, intelligent, down to earth and intuitive. I feel like she understands me and my body- I wish all doctors were like her! I experienced immediate pain relief after my first adjustment, and with each adjustment I've become a healthier (and happier) person. The physical and emotional benefits of chiropractic care have been amazing, and I wouldn't chose to live without it now.
- Pros: Convenient location, evening hours, friendly
I love Dr Cheri Marcos

When we moved to the area, I asked a friend for a good chiropractor, and received glowing recommendations for Dr. Marcos. I was surprised and impressed with her techniques. She was able to accurately diagnose the problems and fix them. She is well educated and helps educate her patients.
I was in two car accidents and was left unable to walk due to other complications. In addition to excellent hands-on treatment, she gave me exercises which have helped in my recovery. Dr. Marcos has contributed more to my recovery than other health care providers.
My teen-age daughter came to Dr. Marcos and I was amazed at the work she was able to with my daughter's back and the education Dr. Marcos provided her.
I would recommend Dr. Marcos to anyone without hesitation. She is a vitimin to my life.
The best chiropractor ever found
by JohnRB

While I was originally skeptical about chiropractic in general, I am sold on Dr. Cheri Marcos. She is excellent. She is skilled, knowlegable, insightful and caring. She seems to know exactly what to do for a variety of problems, some that I didn't think chiropractic could address.
I had an old bicycle injury from decades ago, plus a recent sternal rib fracture from an auto accident. This was on top of chronic problems with my neck and back from years of desk work. Dr. Marcos is able to address my needs in a professional and personal manner.
My wife suffered from lumbar polyradiculitis and has been unable to walk until recently, due in great part to Dr. Marcos' healing skills. Dr. Marcos has, in her own way and within her scope of work, contributed more to my wife's ongoing recovery than all the other physical therapists, rahabilitation therapists, and neurologists put together.
- Pros: Very skilled and caring
- Cons: Not a fancy office (but that keeps fees down)
The chiropractor for people who don't believe in chiropractors

I had never gone to a chiropractor before because I never believed they actually did anything. But after going through the HMO route and getting no results whatsoever, I decided to give Dr. Markos a shot. She was amazing. She patiently explained why chiropractors were important and what it was they did. She made all of my aches and pains go away after just a few sessions, including aches and pains I didn't know I had until she made them disappear. Dr. Markos is great--I've recommend her to all my skeptical friends and family.
A great chiropractor that cares about your health!

About three weeks ago I hurt my back playing table tennis. I didn't listen to my body and kept playing for a few days, and finally the next Monday, my back was hurting so bad I could barely get off my bed! I felt intense pain when I walked and sat down, so I decided I needed to see a chiropractor for the first time in my life. Thanks to this website and fellow reviewers, I found North City Chiropractor Health.
During the first visit, Dr. Markos patiently listened to all my concerns and evaluated my condition. She explained each adjustment to me before making it to make me feel comfortable, and also explained to me what was causing the pain in my back, something I really appreciated. After the first adjustment, my back pain didn't improve much. Two days later, after my second adjustment, my back pain dramatically improved! I could hardly believe it!! In fact, I felt so good afterward, that I played table tennis for 2-3 hours each day for the next couple of days, without pain!
After two more visits the following week, the back pain had mostly disappeared. During the fourth visit, I told Dr. Markos that I felt a pinching pain right below my chest after my table tennis lesson the night before. She realized what the problem was, and made an adjustment. I didn't immediately feel the pain relieved, but about 20 minutes later, the chest pain was gone!
I highly recommend Dr. Markos to anyone in pain! Susie the receptionist is very friendly and helpful also!
- Pros: Effective diagnosis and treatment. Convenient location.
- Cons: none
Outstanding Chiropractor

I started seeing Dr. Markos in June when I hurt my ribs. She treated that injury and has moved on to other chronic pain issues I have struggled with for the past 40 years. This last week she noted limited range of motion in my left hip and did a treatment that released it. This is HUGE for me. I have consulted orthopedists, physical therapists, massage therapists, osteopaths trying to get help with this hip. They variously told me the problem was my lower back, there was no problem, or there was nothing they could do. I hadn't told Dr. Markos about the hip but she noted the problem and worked on it. She told me it would feel better when I stood up and it did. This was three days ago. Since then I worked out at the gym and spent 5 hours each of the last two days out in the yard, pulling up blackberries and raking leaves. Strenuous work! Very little pain. I haven't felt this good in years. I can't say enough about her. She really knows her stuff. I've done a lot of body work in my life and Cheri has done more for me in 5.5 months than people I saw for years. I did not have high expectations when I first went to see her, but I'm a total fan now. She's terrific! Her rates are reasonable, she cares about her patients, and she got me in the same day when I called with an acute injury.
Shoreline's Best Chiropractor!

Dr. Markos is amazing! I have been seeing Dr. Markos for many years and I continue to be amazed by her capabilities and intuitive care. Over the years I have gone for several different reasons and every time I come away feeling wonderful and thankful to have found such a wonderful chiropractor and person! From chronic neck problems due to an accident, to a rib out of alignment making breathing difficult, to a hip/pelvic misalignment from a life long leg length difference, to foot alignment so my Berks felt again like a glove for my feet, all these and more have been professionally and compassionately treated for a very reasonable price & timeline. Saying the "Best in Shoreline" is probably an understatement and should be "Best in the greater Seattle area"! I would highly recommend Dr. Markos for all that ails you and some things you don't even know that ails you!
- Pros: Shoreline location, parking, maximum trust in abilities
- Cons: none
Best Chiropractor in Puget Sound.

Being from the medical community, I feel as though I can write that Doctor Markos is truly the best Chiropractor in the Puget Sound area. She listens to her patients and take her time, not rushed. She truly has the touch of "GOLD". You know what I'm saying if you 've ever been treated by a gifted Doctor. As a patient you will not be disappointed. Once you have been treated by her, you also will ring the bells to her abilities. Great person on top of being a great Doctor.
- Pros: North City area, layed back, comfortable
- Cons: There are no cons.
The most effective & comfortable chiropratic clinic you will find!

I was in an accident about a month ago and was in a lot of pain. I work full-time and go to school full-time so I needed a female chiropractor who understood my schedule, my level of pain, was easy to get to and had flexible hours. My mom looked up Dr. Markos in the Yellow Pages and I went in for a consulation 3 days after the accident. Dr. Markos took me on the same day even though it extended beyond her regular office hours. Her receptionist was VERY friendly and helpful in booking the appointment, and always has a cheerful attitude. Her office was easy to find, close to the freeway, and has plenty of free/easy parking that is easy to get in and out of. Dr. Markos took the time to understand what I wanted out of my treatment, where the pain was, and told me exactly what to expect going forward. She took ownership of my situation and came up with an effective treatment plan. I have been seeing her two times a week from that time, and my pain has gone down a considerable amount. I am able to work on the computer and continue my studying with minimal pain. She always takes her time, she cares for the patient. She understands my hectic schedule and I get the appointments that work the best for ME. She's very friendly and I feel very confident in her abilities and very comfortable being in her care. I am VERY thankful to have found her, and would highly recommend her for chiropractic care.
- Pros: Everyone at the office is friendly, great location with free/easy parking.
Best chiroprator in Shoreline

On my first visit to any chiropractor Dr. Markos not only made my headache go away that I went in for, but also fixed the rotation of my arms. Something I've been living with all my life is poor rotation without knowing it, and Dr. Markos gave me full rotation!
- Cons: limited parking
