I am a little late to hearing this news. I was shocked and saddened by the news mostly for his family's sake! I was a patient of his in Woodstock and was very saddened when I was unable to follow him to Lake Geneva. He was a great chiropractor who helped me in so many ways with my back! And when I was unable to follow him he helped me find a new chiropractor! You could always tell the love he felt for his family by the way he talked about them! He was so proud of all their accomplishments! My thoughts and prayers go out to them all! I hope they can find peace and strength in God's love! Another nice memory of him for me was there were times I would have to bring my son who was 7 at the time and he always made him feel special! He loved going with me because Dr. Dowell would always talk superheroes and the new movies with him. He knew all the movies because it was something he did with his son and family! Although late, my deepest sympathies go out to your whole family! He was a great man that touched the lives of so many!

I never knew him, but I was told he worked with Dr. Slapinski who I know very well. I am saddened at the loss of him at such an early age! I watched the video and the love that showed when he was with his friends and family. You have my heartfelt sympathy for such a great loss of a wonderful man...

I am so sorry for your loss, I was a patient of Marks. My friend was also and told me today about his passing He was the best chiropractor I have ever been to. I have a dairy farm and we talked about how he worked at a dairy farm when he was younger. He seemed like such a genuinely nice person and had such a sweet soul. I'm sure your family and his friends miss him dearly. I know I missed him as my doctor and haven't been to a chiropractor since. I always walked out of the office feeling great. Now he's with our Lord where there is only good things. One day we will see him again. God bless you all.

I left a previous condolence about my experience with Mark over the years he treated me as my chiropractor. He mentioned to me he always wanted a gold pocket watch so I felt he was more like a close friend always fit me in if I was in extreme pain. One day I sealed our friendship with a sold gold pocket watch my father had given to me.. He refused it at first but I explained to him it was a well deserved gift.

To the family of Dr. Dowell, let me tell you it was a pleasure knowing him, getting adjusted by him, having him across the parking lot from my office to refer patients to. I am so very saddened and will truly miss my colleague. Extending my sincerest sympathies, Dr. Donna Brown.

I just wanted to send my condolences for the family of Dr.Mark Dowell. I met him as a patient and right away connected with him. I will always cherish my time with him and want his family know that all we ever talked about was his family and soccer. I just loved how he was so kind hearted with so much patience with me as a patient. I seen him as such a family orientated father. The world has lost such a great person and will be missed dearly.

We are so sadden on the passing away of Dr. Dowell. We just started coming to the office a month ago. Dr. Dowell and the whole staff are very caring people. We knew we were in a good place. In the short time we saw him we can truly say he was a very loving, caring man. He showed his love for God by the way he treated his patients. That was evident in the few weeks we knew him. We feel honored to have known him if only for a short time. We express our sympathy to his family. You will be in our prayers. The Lord comfort you and give you strength. You are loved.

I was a newer patient of Dr Mark and My heart grieves for the family. I just saw him last Friday and was in shock when I got the news. My son is a Chiropractor in Sheboygan Wi and he found Dr Mark and recommended I go to him. He took great care in his Chiropractic care for me but also went the extra to get to know me as a person. He shared his expertise as a Chiropractor and bragged on his faith and family. May God wrap his arms around all of you and hold you close during this most difficult time. Sincerely Cindy

We are so saddened to hear of Dr. Dowell's passing. We first met Mark and started to be treated by him shortly after we moved to Woodstock when he was at Centegra. We followed him up to the Lake Geneva Clinic. We always like the way he treated us as well as the great conversations we had about "everything" during our appointments. He was more than our Dr, he was our friend too. Our hearts go out to his wife and kids...

I am so sorry and shocked to hear of Dr Dowell passing. He was a great man and a great doctor. The first time I went to his office he recognized me as being the nurse who helped he and his wife during their hospital stay after having their baby. I didn't remember but he did! Such a warm caring person. I haven't needed a chiropractor in years.thanks to Doctor Dowell.
My sympathy goes out to his lovely family and friends.

He was a great guy!! I'm shocked and my sympathies to the families. I can't begin to thank him for getting my life back over the years. He was always chatting about his wife and the kids and also about fishing as we shared our love for boating and fishing. We are going to miss him. He is flying high and fishing with his wings.
