Dr. Gluck had been my chiropractor since 1988 and helped me and all those I referred to him. He saved many from having to have surgery. I watched him lovingly and devotedly raise his sons with Leslee and how proud he was of his family. I have been to many chiropractors since his passing but have not found a single one with his skills. He was truly gifted, a loving and gentle soul, and I miss him and Wilma very much. Sending love and blessings to his whole family.

We only learned of Dr. Ira's passing this evening. We were early patients of his and have never found a chiropractor his equal. Our hearts go out to Leslee and the boys, Wilma, and his friends and family. He was more than just the world's best chiropractor - he was a caring and gentle soul.

August 14, 2013 I only just learned of Dr. Gluck's death. I passed by his office and was shocked it was for sale. He was a wonderful healer and a great person, full of life and energy. Leslee, Ethan and David, please accept our heartfelt condolences, Ana Alonso (patient), David Killick (patient), Carlos Nugent (went to preschool with Ethan).

Dr. Gluck was a wonderful Chiropractor. No one like him in all of Tucson. Sometimes I would travel an hour and a half 2x per week just to see him for 5 minutes. His family is in my prayers. Happy to hear he was reflecting in those minutes the kind of man he was to his loved ones. A marriage of 30 years is amazing nowadays. A little passage with a lot of looking up to accompanied. God Bless your hearts. Deepest appreciation to his practice and Wilma.

I just learned of Dr. Glucks passing today. This is quite upsetting as he provided great care to me for many years, and much laughter during my visits. To his family and office family, I am so sorry! Kim Dailey

Ira was a wonderful person and an incredible doctor. He performed what I considered to be miracles on my body and always with a dry wit that helped the healing. More importantly, he was a caring friend, whom I always enjoyed seeing. I miss him greatly.

Very sorry to hear of Dr. Gluck's passing. My prayers and blessings to the family and to Wilma (I miss you, you were at least 1/2 of the "experience" and it was a good one.) He knew quickly and confidently how to put Humpty back together again, and was so upbeat and positive. I have a leg that needs his magic touch right now.... May his magic remain in all of our hearts.

Doctor Gluck was an expert at resolving my medical issues. I especially enjoyed our bantering and will miss him greatly. He was very thoughtful and always upbeat even though he was going through tough times himself. May you find solace in knowing how much he was loved and highly regarded.

I did not hear of Dr. Gluck's passing until this week. I am so saddened. He was a skilled chiropractor - no doubt about it - I had no pain from the 4th visit with him - after suffering for an entire year. More than that, he was a funny, caring man who adored his family. Though my work didn't allow me the opportunity to get to see him for some time now - I wanted his family to know how wonderful he was to his patients and to let Wilma know my sister and I will miss both of them - truly a great team.

I was very sad to hear of Dr Gluck's passing. He had been my chiropractor for 10 years ... and he was always kind, gracious, and had a sense of humor. After I found him, I never looked back. He was the best chiropractor I ever had. He took care of me in good times and bad. I will never find another like him. May He rest in Peace.

I'm so sad to hear this news. I use to tell my friends how much I loved going to the chiropractor----all because of Dr. Gluck. I never laughed with any doctor as much as I laughed with him. I will truly miss him and I offer my sincere condolences.

Without a doubt one of the finest DC's one could ever find. Ira was a valued colleague, always ready to share knowledge, and was truly committed to his patients and his profession. He will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to his family and patients.

I'm glad to see so many people have signed his guest book. Dr "G" deserves that and so much more. As everyone agrees, he was an excellent doctor and a compassionate, yet humorous, man. Our hearts go out to his family (and his extended family, Wilma).
Pericles once wrote, "What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others." Dr G has left each of us with a tapestry of rich and sparkling colors. He is greatly missed.

My condolences to Ira's wife and family and also to his long time co-worker Wilma. He certainly was a first rate chiropracter with an infectious laugh and always showed sincere interest in his patients. I enjoyed our many conversations and will miss him greatly. I was first referred to Ira, my first and only chiropracter, following a bout with numbness in my hands and feet. He asked me many questions, then began to manipulate my back as he told me I was out of alignment. I was surprised when I heard about 6-7 pops occur in rapid fire, looked up and asked him if that was normal. He said no, that wasn't normal and that he was just as surprised, and we both laughed. From that point forward he kept my back aligned and we shared a great friendship. I will truly miss him - he was one of a kind.
