"I became a doctor of chiropractic due to a deep personal experience involving my father who had been through the surgical route and it was a doctor of chiropractic that gave him his life back.” As has been said… “Because I honor the inborn potential of everyone to be truly healthy. Because I desire to help the newborn, the aged, and those without hope. Because I choose to care for the patient with the disease, not the disease. Because I wish to assist rather than intrude, to free rather than control. Because I seek to correct the cause, not the effect. Because I know doctors do not heal; only the body can heal itself. Because I have been called to serve others. Because I want to make a difference. Because every day I get to witness miracles. Because I know it is right."
