I have worked at The Joint Chiropractic full time since September 2016. My whole career spanning the last 25 years as a Chiropractic Physician has been spent seeing at least 30-60 patients per day or more. My record was set the last week of 2023 when I saw over 100 patients/day all week and the beginning day of the week of 2024. The last work day of 2023 I saw a record 128 patients. Last year I received an award for seeing just short of 15,000 patient visits. I am proud to help as many people as I have over the years.
