Dear Dr. Cogan,
I wanted to thank you for the help you provided me, Below is my story and feel free to share it with who ever you want.
Through the course of a 10 year career in the NFL one would expect to encounter the effects of that career later in life – In my case, I did, many of them. From knee to neck to one of the most painful of them all, my back. The night of November 8th I felt my back tighten up to the point where the pain showed on my face at the 75th Detroit Lions All Time Team Dinner. Enduring pain through the night, by 8am I found myself in Emergency at Ford Hospital – Unable to walk more then 10 feet at a time. The wheelchair was my only option if I wanted to attend the festivities to be held at Ford Field at 11:30 AM.
The pain was at such a high level that I had to be put on pain killers. I managed to make it through the game and as I was slowly working my way out of the Stadium, I met a representative from HealthQuest. Without hesitation, he arranged for an MRI the next morning, followed up by a treatment session on the DRX9000.
The MRI basically showed damage to L-4 / L-5 with pinching of the sciatica nerve – within 2 treatments I was in a normal upright working position with at least 50% pain reduction – the reaction after one week of daily treatment was so noticeable that people that had witnessed the pain and discomfort a week earlier were in disbelief – Following the directions of Dr. Cogan along with the use of the DRX 9000 treatments, after the full length of treatment (about 2 months) the burning sensation is gone along with the shooting pains down the leg. Even more amazing is the fact that the pain and suffering I went through is completely gone.
I have a lot of friends that have had back problems as a result had surgery or are still suffering with the pain, For me, surgery was not going to be an option, so because of this special and advanced way of treating back injuries, the problem was solved for me. I have personally recommended this treatment to the Detroit Lions organization and will continue to attest to the benefits of this treatment because I am pain free and enjoying every minute of it.
This is my story,
Charlie Sanders
Former Detroit Lion & NFL Hall Of Famer
Dr. Cogan was helpful beyond belief. I almost had to give up golf and now I am back on the course twice a week. – Fred L.
Dr. Cogan is one of the best in the business – committed to helping ease people’s pain. – Robin S.
This place is wonderful, would recommend to anyone and everyone who has any back or neck issues. The staff is kind and patient and the Doctors are beyond professional. I can’t say enough good things about HealthQuest of Farmington. – Kyle O.
I love this place. I always enjoyed my visits and my regular adjustments but lately they’ve introduced me to a new laser therapy. It doesn’t hurt at all and a pain I had in my shoulder is no longer there and I have full range of motion in my arm again. Not to mention that my upper back tension is also no longer since I started visiting them almost a year ago now. – Lauren W.
These doctors are the only doctors I ever look forward to seeing! They are so experienced and friendly. I always look forward to my next visit. Since I started seeing them, my headaches have decreased and my neck which was always very sore and tight feels normal again! I also love sitting in the massage chairs they have in the waiting room. I can’t say enough good things about these guys! – Jason P.
I met these guys 2 years ago at the Fishing show in Novi and they were so friendly and knowledgeable. So I made an appointment and I’ve been seeing them ever since. I had a lot of lower back pain and by following their plan and visiting regularly the pain is basically non-existence at this point. I would recommend this to anyone with severe back pain. They sure helped mine.

Doesn’t get much better than Healthquest of Farmington! Friendly and reliable service. Very patient and understanding. The staff even knows me by name when I walk in! Always greeted with a smile and a “How are You?”. Very clean office too! – Lou S.
The doctors here are very professional and helpful. They always address my needs and concern and make me a priority. The front desk staff are always friendly. They greet me with a smile and are very willing to work with my busy schedule. I always look forward to my next visit. – Dana B.
The best chiropractors in the state!! I have been a patient for 7 years and my low back pain went from an 8 to 0. They also treat me for migraine headaches, hip pain, tendinitis, knee pain, and carpal tunnel. They have the latest and greatest treatments to get you out of pain! I wouldn’t be where I am today without the wonderful doctors at Healthquest!! Thank you!! 🙂 – Katie N.
I travel to two different Health Quest locations, depending on what office I am working at for my job. Farmington has been very accommodating and easy to access for me. I have been suffering with neuropathy for many years now and have tried MANY things ALL out of pocket and this might be the first thing I have found that actually works! I was walking with a cane and 1/2 way through my treatments I am no longer in need of a cane! The staff are a lot of fun too…at both locations! Jackson is my other location…I live in the middle. – Heather F.
Excellent service, no side effects from treatments. Best treatments I ever had. It is not always about giving you a pill. To me after treatments it’s like how many pills can you stop taking now because you feel better and you have adjusted your body, soul, mind, exercise, and eating habits. Best treatments ever! – Robertleen G.
At Health Quest, they treat you like family! It’s not like a regular doctor’s visit where you’re just one of many patients. They not only make me feel great by helping with adjustments but also show how much they care! – Catherine T.
I would recommend Health Quest for their friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, and knowledgeable staff. Their adjustments and treatments are top notch. Thank you for all that you do! – Michelle R.
It’s been great to have some relief from a constant headache.. The office staff in Farmington has become like a second family.. Highly recommend giving them a try – Nancy W.
Entire staff is wonderful and caring. I feel so much better now! – Marge K.
I love the employees and doctor’s. The care is exceptional. – Diana B.
Dr. Sol Cogan is the founder of HealthQuest, Michigan’s largest group of integrated clinics providing rehabilitation, chiropractic, and high-tech non-invasive technologies that relieve pain. He is a firm believer in the incredible healing power of these natural, non-surgical methods. Over the last several decades, Dr. Sol Cogan has treated countless patients across Michigan – including the Detroit Lions football team for more than a decade.
Dr. Sol Cogan’s calling was born from a devastating injury of his own. A wrestler in high school, he was severely injured after landing on his back during a match – so badly hurt, he could barely move. Fearing he’d never walk again, he visited doctor after doctor, until he found the one who changed his fate and set in motion his mission to bring hope and healing to others. Two weeks later, Dr. Cogan was the 105-pound freestyle state champion – and he’d found his future career.
After completing his undergraduate studies at Michigan State University, Dr. Sol Cogan enrolled in the National College of Chiropractic, receiving scholarships and countless awards for excellence along the way. He earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the college in 1992. From the humble beginnings of his early practice to his work with the Detroit Lions, an Olympic gold medal winning gymnast, and later with HealthQuest, Dr. Sol Cogan has remained committed to improving lives through non-surgical care, the latest technologies and nutrition.
“We make adjustments that correct the cause of the problem instead of treating symptoms,” he says. “We make the pain go away for good, not just until a prescription runs out. We employ a science that helps the body heal itself naturally, without drugs and without surgery. As a result, our patients are healthier, happier, and just plain feel better.”
In addition to his many high-profile success stories, Dr. Cogan has continued to pursue the latest treatment methods for patients and works to further advance the knowledge and understanding of non-surgical treatments and technologies. He is licensed to practice in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Georgia, Delaware and Ohio. When Dr. Cogan isn’t in the office treating patients, he is a frequent lecturer and a catalyst in the United States health care industry. He has spoken to more than 100,000 people in physician groups and audiences across the country over the last 25 years.
