I became a doctor to help you gain control of your health and your life.  

My mission is to help as many children and their families as possible with exceptional natural health care and educate them on how to be healthy so they can educate others which allows the greatest number of people the opportunity to reach their full potential and enjoy life-long health.  I accept the challenge to globally change the current heath care system, which is focused on early detection and treatment of disease and sickness with almost no focus on prevention or how to be healthy.  That is why our current health care system is expensive and failing to the degree entering into the medical system has become statically one of the top killers in the United States of America.  

A few years ago, Aetna Insurance did a review of the prior 10 years of all claims to try to show that chiropractic was expensive and not effective. However, it showed just the opposite: those who were under chiropractic care had on average $3000 per person less claims then those who were not under chiropractic care. Conclusion: paying people to go to chiropractors save the insurance companies $3000 a year per person.  So, I am literally saving lives when I help someone regain their health, and saving them and our nation money.

I did my undergraduate studies at Mesa State College leading to a B.S. degree and then received my doctorate from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1996, which is the founding college of chiropractic.  I continued my studies and became one of only 153 Board-Certified Pediatric Chiropractic Diplomates in the world which required completing a three-year post-doctorate degree in the specialized area of Pediatrics, including pregnancy and infertility.  I have been an instructor for the International Chiropractic Association Pediatric Conferences and published articles on Attention, ADD, Learning Disorders, and Colic. Articles submitted for publication: Urinary Tract Infections, GERD.   I strive to expand my knowledge and skills and to impart these to others. (See vitae )

I am proud to be a member of the non-profit Foundation for Wellness Professionals. This gives me the opportunity to give back to the community by presenting free monthly workshops on a variety of health-related topics. I also volunteer weekly at St. Mary’s Marillac Clinic to provide chiropractic care.  I serve my profession by being the president of the Mesa County Chiropractic Association.  (See Workshop schedule)

Personally, I love spending time with my family, my beautiful wife and my two sons. I am one of those dads that are out climbing on the playground and enjoying it as much as the kids do. I enjoy just about any outdoor activity. One of my favorite hobbies is to restore and modify old muscle cars.  I love my job--I get to see miracles happen in my patient’s lives every day!
