Chiropractic Doctors

Dr. Alex Vidan

Dr. Alex Vidan was introduced to chiropractic by a friend after a sports injury while in college. At the time, he suffered from regular and painful headaches. He had such amazing results through chiropractic care that Dr. Vidan decided to pursue chiropractic as his profession. He received his Doctorate of Chiropractic degree in 2004 from Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, Missouri. Dr. Vidan uses his degree in Kinesiology (the study of human movement) background from Louisiana State University, and his Human Biology degree from Logan to encourage natural methods of achieving and maintaining overall health and wellness to his patients. These degrees are also very helpful when caring for athletes. Dr. Vidan was a team physician for the St. Louis Cardinals in 2010 and during their 2011 World Championship season.

comfortable & efficient

our office

Our office is open, modern, and well-decorated. We have a comfortable waiting area for filling out paperwork or for family/friends to visit. One thing patients love about our office is that our wait time is usually minimal. Most patients go straight back to get adjusted or begin their therapy after arriving.

We love having kiddos in the office! Our adorable children’s corner is full of wooden toys, books, and crayons and paper. We love when one of our little visitors adds to our “Art Gallery”! (And rest assured, we carefully disinfect this area of our office frequently).

our technology

Our patients LOVE our texting technology! Patients new or established can text us directly to our main number, (314) 678-9355 for any needs. Need to reschedule? Just text us! Running late? Let us know via text! Our software gives us the ability to text back and forth. On your end, it will look like a conversation with a friend... and we hope it feels like that, too!

We will answer the phone, too. No automated prompts--instead a live, friendly person to take your call! And we actually return phone calls quickly!

We take digital x-rays of each patient (exceptions, of course, in the case of pregnancy or nursing, and for small children). We have large TVs in each of our exam rooms where the doctor can show the x-ray to the patient. This allows us to explain what is working, or not working, so you understand better how your spine should look and move, and how chiropractic can help to correct the problems.
