Martinez Chiropractic and Medical Center

A multi-doctor office on SW 137th Avenue

Martinez Chiropractic and Medical Center is at 12595 SW 137th Avenue, Suite 108, with a Miami postal address in the Kendall area. The practice introduces Damian Martinez, Damaris Sabater, Thomas Krahn and David Goodrich on its doctors page. Martinez earned his chiropractic degree at Logan in 1991 and has practiced in South Florida since then. Sabater trained at Palmer's Port Orange campus and is explicitly described as speaking English and Spanish. Goodrich's biography emphasizes sports chiropractic and strength-and-conditioning credentials. The group describes both chiropractic and medical backgrounds, but its service list does not assign every procedure to every named chiropractor; a request for a specific service should be matched to the professional who actually provides it.

What a first appointment can involve

The practice's patient guide starts with paperwork and a conversation about the concern, followed by history and examination. It says imaging may be used when the condition calls for it, and that treatment often starts the same day after appropriate studies. “Often” is not a promise: the office also describes a later review of findings, commonly one or two days afterward. This sequence matters for someone who must arrange transport or time off. The first visit may be longer than the appointment used to discuss findings and a plan, and an advertised service should not be assumed to be necessary before examination.

Services require different decisions

The Kendall menu ranges from Graston soft-tissue work, kinesiology tape and spinal decompression to medical weight loss and PRP injections. These are materially different offerings; the medical procedures should not be described as chiropractic adjustments. An individual plan needs to specify which professional recommends and performs each part, why it follows from the examination and what insurance or direct-payment terms apply. The office says it welcomes insurance plans but also warns that benefits and costs for a particular service vary. No universal package price is published in the material reviewed.

A schedule that closes twice on some days

Monday and Wednesday run 8:30 a.m.–noon and 3:30–6:30 p.m.; Friday runs 8:30 a.m.–noon and 3:30–6 p.m. Tuesday and Saturday are mornings only, 8:30 a.m.–noon; Thursday and Sunday are closed. The noon-to-3:30 gap makes a lunchtime visit impossible on the split days. Appointments are confirmed by telephone at 305-388-7577. Recent public comments describe welcoming staff, careful explanations and an efficient office. These accounts describe service, not evidence that a treatment will work for the next visitor. The practical strength here is a named team and Saturday access, provided the appointment is matched to the right clinician and service.
