Dr Schwartz – Chiropractor

Dr. Schwartz is a chiropractor who believes true healthcare is the commitment a person makes to him or herself to stay in physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual balance for the purpose of experiencing life 100%. Dr. Schwartz believes good health is about respecting your body, paying attention to what it is telling you, and then giving it what it needs for the sake of self-preservation and prevention rather than crisis care.

Dr. Schwartz comes from a family with four chiropractors and has over 13 years experience. He has worked closely with renowned Neurosurgeon Researcher, Dr. Jeffery Yablon, and Orthopedic Surgeon, Dr. Marc Allen.

Dr. Schwartz practices with techniques that can be utilized on different age groups, a wide array of conditions, post surgical patients, patients with arthritis and other spinal related diseases, so that each and every patient receives a treatment plan specifically tailored to their own individual needs. He also believes in coordinating care with primary care physicians and specialists when warranted.

In his spare time, Dr. Schwartz enjoys exercising, listening to music, movies, repair computers, and spending time with his family.
