Can you tell us briefly about yourself? Where are you from and what brought you to where you are today?

I was born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, FL. I have been practicing Chiropractic care for over 30 years in Florida. I have my license in Chiropractic, Physiotherapy and I also offer nutritional counseling. The counseling is more towards for fatigue, insomnia, bowel disorders just as an example. Also, patients who want to switch from their current Medication for various disorders, and look into a more Holistic approach. Therefore, both myself and the patient are engaged in this process with high probability of success. This process is taken very seriously, and with the utmost care.

Why did you choose to become a Chiropractor?

Chiropractic more than likely chose me in reflecting on that question.

What are the most common issues that clients come to you with?

Headaches, neck pain, low back, extremity pain and numbness, restricted range of motion. Trauma, car accidents, slip and falls. Pre & Post-operative care. And this one I am very proud of, patients and those who are not even patients of mine, request me to listen to their concerns and review their medical records/diagnostic studies to give an opinion, which is very humbling.

Why did you join SACC Florida and what are you hoping to get out of our chamber?

The answer to this question is very easy. I have a lot of patients who are Swedish in the community, who are absolutely delightful and I adore. In fact, I do not know how that happened, but I am very blessed! LOL.  Who knew? That the Swedish community was flourishing here in Fort Lauderdale. Love it! I was honored when I was informed and asked to join your organization. Thank you for welcoming me to your community, and for being in mine now.
