June 26, 2023Dr. Patrick is amazing. I’ve been coming here for over 3 years. He’s not one of these guys that puts you on a plan for X amount of months. He does what’s right for you. I started out once or twice a week. As I starting feeling better it was less often. Now I go for what I call a tune-up, or when somethings bothering me. He has given me exercises, which I do every day. They help a lot. Go see him! He will help you.

April 28, 2023I started with Elite because of Dr. PK! I have gone to different chiropractors but PK has been the best. You might tell him everything hurts well he will evaluate you everywhere to see where you’re hurting. Not just say okay and start adjusting. He listens to you and really tries his best to make sure every adjustment is perfect. He massages the area, stretches and takes his time. My most recent visit while I am 7 months pregnant and I left out of there as a new person. I would highly recommend anyone to Dr. PK.

April 28, 2023I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. PK and Elite Performance Chiropractic in general. They truly care about their patients, are great at listening, and make sure that the care you're receiving is addressing your issues on hand. If you're in the market for a chiro, I'd highly recommend checking them out!

April 28, 2023I was initially recommended to Dr. Malartsik by my trusted personal trainer, who was deeply familiar with my history of lower back problems. On my first visit, I met a welcoming, enthusiastic, professional, and acutely attentive doctor who assessed my physical state precisely. Dr. Malartsik introduced me to the McKenzie Method, which opened new doors of health to me. I’ve been seeing Dr. Malartsik for ten years for regular maintenance and for any glitches that pop up. There is no one better in his forward-facing hybrid field of chiropractic/physical rehabilitation in Chicago.

April 27, 2023Dr. Patrick is the best. He put together a personalized plan to support my ongoing neck and shoulder wellness, which I struggle with from too much time sitting at a laptop. I highly recommend seeing him!

March 15, 2023After seeing Dr. PK on my 'for you' page on Instagram, I immediately booked an appointment as I was desperate for relief. I've had back pain nearly my entire life and have never found someone who could truly alleviate my issues! After a full assessment and a few sessions, Dr. PK introduced me to cupping. The following day after treatment I felt like an entirely new person. I've been seeing him for a couple months now and have never been so pleased with a chiropractor! Dr. PK also went out of his way to check my insurance and get a back brace for me. I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. PK and the rest of the staff at Elite! I'll be going back over and over again!

February 16, 2023Highly recommend Dr PK with this place. I have lower back pain for a long time and have visited many chiropractors. Dr. PK is the best I've met so far. I was able to get my lower back pain quickly improved with his treatment that some others in the city failed to help. And the most I would like to recommend about him is that he cares his patients. With some chiropractors, I feel myself like sort of industrial product on assembly line, get routine adjustment in 5 or 10min and then done. Dr. PK is the opposite. He would look into your issues, and how things change at every visit or if any new problems.

February 2, 2023The first time I went to see Dr PK, my head was at a 45 degree angle shooting excruciating pain down my back any time I tried moving it. He was the only chiropractor willing to squeeze me in last minute to help. I left his office with zero pain and full mobility. Talk about a miracle worker! Since that first time, he has introduced me to new treatments and stretches that I hadn’t heard of before that has improved my condition drastically. Not to mention he takes his time to actually listen to your concerns and problem areas and talk through potential causes and long term solutions with a reasonable treatment plan. He truly does have his patients best interest at heart. Whenever my back or neck starts to bother me now, my first move is to make an apt with PK because I know he will get me back to feeling like my normal self. I couldn’t recommend Dr PK enough! He truly is a life saver

January 24, 2023I have been seeing Amelia for deep tissue massage once a week (insurance covering massages is amazing!) for almost 2 years. She's the best massage therapist I've ever worked with! Great for chronic pain, sports injuries, getting old, etc. I've referred a few people to her and everyone has had a great experience. Highly recommend!

November 30, 2022I highly recommend Elite and Dr. PK to any pregnant mamas out there. Took my sciatica pain from a 9 out of 10 down to a 1! And helped give stretching suggestions and all sorts of exercises that provided so much relief. As our bodies change throughout pregnancy, it feels great to have consistent support. Dr. PK is incredibly knowledgeable about the back and body. I couldn’t have gotten through my pregnancy without him. He’s the absolute best. If you’re having any issues at all… do not hesitate to make the appointment. I thought my issues could not be fixed and within a few days after my first appointment I noticed massive relief. I’m confident he’ll be able to help!
