Meet the Doctors

'At an early age, I have seen the miracle of chiropractic, even in myself.  Growing up, I suffered from severe hospitalized asthma, poor immune system, and chronic severe headaches.  After trying all that conventional medicine had to offer, my parents took me to our local chiropractor.  Since starting a treatment plan and following through, not only have I never been hospitalized for asthma again, I have no symptoms.  My immune system is strong and rarely do I ever get Headaches.  Thus, at an early age, I have known what a life changing experience chiropractic can have for a patient and have continued to witness miracle after miracle.”

In undergrad, I didn’t have any set goals or even know which route I wanted to pursue. I always wanted to do pharmacology, but working as a pharmacy technician made continuing down that path difficult. Seeing patients get limited relief and progression towards better health was very disheartening. Later that semester, my girlfriend (now wife), convinced me to see a chiropractor for headaches that I’ve had for 3 years. I was a non-believer, but she told me I must go see a chiropractor. After the first adjustment, I thought it was a fluke that I didn’t have a headache the next day and figured they would return within no time. To my surprise, the headaches were gone! That's when everything made sense. I knew what I wanted to do from that moment on. There is a saying that the career chooses you, well, Chiropractic chose me!

I never knew about Chiropractic growing up. I always had a misconception about it, due to lack of information. With my background of growing up in an Asian-American household, there were many things that we did that were considered 'unconventional' to modern medicine. So, when a Life University recruiter started talking about Chiropractic, I was very intrigued. They said “Chiropractic can help the body heal without medication,” and from that point, I became all in. I completely switched my path from becoming a MD to a DC.

During Chiropractic school, I haven't found what really resonated with me until I went to a free NET (Neuro Emotional Technique) seminar on campus. That was when I found my calling and my purpose. To say that a technique changed my life sounds a bit dramatic, but it really did. It has allowed me to be able to help patients with their mind-body issues. NET in addition to chiropractic is what gets me to wake up excited about doing what I do.
