    Why Did You Become a Doctor of Chiropractic?

    'As an undergraduate college student, I became interested in eating healthier foods. I found it easy to avoid 'junk' foods, but it was difficult sifting through the volumes of information on diets and supplements to determine which would provide the nutrients I needed for optimal health. I was fortunate to meet some chiropractors who offered sound nutritional advice and taught me about the health benefits of chiropractic care.'

    'After getting my teaching degree, I decided to pursue a career as a chiropractor so I could combine my passion for educating others to take control of their health, with my desire for providing healthcare that promotes healing and helps prevent disease.'
