My Practice

As a chiropractic neurologist, I treat neuromusckuloskeletal disorders. I also serve as a primary care provider for patients offering lab, imaging studies or referral for other diagnostic tests as needed to solve difficult and complicated cases. I have worked side by side with MD’s and other providers of all specialties to enhance the care of my patients.

In my practice, I utilize chiropractic manual therapy, physical therapy, and education with focus on lifestyle and exercise. My neurology specialty makes me more likely to understand the complexities of difficult cases and the ability to refer patients as appropriate or co-treat them in a team approach

I realize the limitations of my profession but also the ways in which my care can help people understand their challenges and work to overcome pain and dysfunction. I do what I can to help people take responsibility for their health outcomes and participate in their healthcare. I treat until a problem is improved and I don’t push people to continue with treatment unless they are in pain or there is a clear problem to solve.

I value science and evidence with the understanding that we can’t always have the clear cut answers that we want. I offer second opinions for difficult or complex cases. My patients trust me to be honest with my recommendations for treatment and their other healthcare needs. I often see patients working through non-chiropractic issues to offer guidance, support and advocacy in their healthcare challenges.
