Each SAJA team member commits to two main ideas. First, take the absolute best care of each patient. Second, take the absolute best care of each employee. You will feel this from the moment you walk into our offices and throughout every aspect of your care. We believe that a well-trained and responsive team is the only way to take care of you. Our goal is to get you better.

Welcome to our website. I have practiced in our community for twenty years. My practice today is just as exciting as it was when I first began.

In my spare time, I am with my wife and three children, we do everything together. We love the park, baseball, grilling and movie night! Please feel free to call on me if you ever have a question.

I am blessed and excited to be a chiropractor here at Spine and Joint Associates. I have had the honor to treat thousands of patients throughout my 10 year career. I have worked in multiple states and even as far as Lima, Peru as a chiropractor treating a wide array of conditions. I have a goal for each of my patients, which is the same goal I hold for myself, which is to move and feel as good as we possibly can, for as long as we can. When I am not spending time with my patients, I love to be with family and our Boston Terrier, Duncan. If I’m not there, then there is a high probability you could find me on a Lake Michigan beach playing 2 on 2 sand volleyball. I also enjoying running, swimming, and biking.

I am excited and thankful to have joined the team at Spine and Joint Associates. I am a Southwest Michigan native (Kalamazoo) and enjoy an active lifestyle with my wife Jessica and daughter Raegan. We love being able to enjoy the many orchards in the area as well as the beaches, parks and trails. Having played ten years of high level rugby, I understand the impact injuries and pain can make on quality of life. It is my hope to guide patients not only to recover from setbacks to function well, but also to live their highest quality of life and thrive.
