Thank you for visiting the Bridgeport Chiropractic Center web site. The office has occupied the southeast corner of Bridgeport Way and 44th Street W for 40 years now. It has been my pleasure to practice here for 35 of those years. In addition to serving University Place, we are conveniently located to see patients who live and/or work in Fircrest, Lakewood, Steilacoom, Gig Harbor, and Tacoma. Primarily, I care for patients with musculoskeletal complaints. Most patients are able to refer themselves for care, using me as their portal of entry into the healthcare system. In situations where referral by a primary care physician is required for coverage, We are willing and able to effectively coordinate your care with him or her. Click on this link for my thoughts on interprofessional relations. Physician visitors can click "Physicians" to see material that may help them if they are considering making a chiropractic referral. Though I do not plan to post specific clinical advice, I am making an exception to include an item on the therapeutic use of cold vs. heat. I have seen many people whose conditions have innocently been made worse by inappropriate use of heating pads. I hope my comments on the subject can help some to avoid that pitfall. But, while I strongly believe that self-help is wonderful, I do not think online advice is a suitable replacement for the information you should receive in person from a professional. Thank you for visiting! G E Sullivan, DC
