I grew up in Fredonia, a small town in southeast Kansas.  After high school, I went to University of Kansas where I began studying to become a pharmacist.  In high school and throughout undergrad, I worked in retail pharmacy.  It was this job experience that made me realize that my “dream job” was far less dreamy than I’d thought.  The addiction and dependence I witnessed was astounding.  And honestly, it scared me.  I couldn’t help but feel that I was contributing to a massive prescription drug abuse problem.  Later I would find out that the pharmaceutical industry is responsible for the an estimated 786,000 American deaths per year.

As a lifelong chiropractic patient myself, I’d already known there was a completely natural way to address not only pain, but digestive problems, anxiety, menstrual and fertility issues, asthma, and so much more.  After graduating from KU, I moved to Overland Park to pursue my passion in natural, drug-free health care as a Doctor of Chiropractic.

I graduated from Cleveland Chiropractic College with a Pregnancy & Pediatric emphasis through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association.  I am honored to serve the families and babies that grace our office, and I am certain that the future of the health of this world begins with healthy children.  I am extremely passionate about family care and I enjoy sharing the experience of empowering families to make healthy decisions from preconception to pregnancy and beyond.

Thank you for letting me share my story with you!  I’m excited to support you on your lifelong journey toward great health. I wish you all of life’s sweetest gifts of health and happiness.

Abundantly,

Dr. V
