Thirty years of putting people back together.

I opened my doors in Haymarket in 1990 with a simple idea: find the actual cause, fix that, and tell the patient the truth about what it will take. Thirty years later that hasn't changed — it has just brought me some unusual company.

Along the way I earned the D.A.C.B.S.P., the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Physicians' diplomate credential, and did post-graduate study in clinical nutrition. That combination is why I look past the joint on the table — at how you sleep, fuel, train, and recover. It's usually where the real answer is hiding.

“Keeping elite athletes at peak performance is a privilege — and it starts with the same dedication I give everyone who walks through the door.” Dr. Douglas Obetz, D.C., D.A.C.B.S.P.

On any given Monday I might see a newborn with colic, a framer whose back gave out, a fourteen-year-old with a concussion, and a professional sprinter three weeks from a championship final. They all get the full workup. That has never been negotiable for me.

If something has been following you around for years and nobody has explained it properly, that's exactly the conversation I want to have.
