The Oklahoma City Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor Oklahoma City

Introducing Oklahoma City chiropractor Dr. Dennis Doan

In 1974 I developed serious low back pain that prevented me from doing most activities. I sought the help of MD's, DO's, physical therapists, and ultimately chiropractors. Between 1974 and 1999 I had seen 28 MD's, DO's, and physical therapists. I also had seen 22 chiropractors. Not a one of those health care professionals could find the cause of my problem. The chiropractors did help me with the intense pain, but, as the years went by, I got worse. I was so bad at one point that I couldn't get out of bed to use the restroom!

Because of my great interest in chiropractic and its philosophy, I decided to become a chiropractor and went to Parker college of Chiropractic in Dallas. It was while in school that an intern discovered the source my problem. I have a 3/4 inch anatomically short right leg! That fact had eluded the 50 other health care people. The intern was using the Gonstead system of chiropractic.

Since I had all five things necessary to wear a lift, I have my shoes made to accommodate the short right leg. I have been treated by the Gonstead system and now live a normal life again.

I became so interested in the Gonstead system of chiropractic that I managed to get the highest grade in the Gonstead course at Parker, dedicated my career to the Gonstead system, and have since attended many Gonstead seminars to improve my ability to help my patients.

It wasn't that the many other techniques tried on me didn't work, they just didn't find the underlying cause. I tell my patients that chiropractic in general is far better than pills, potions, or lotions. It is my experience and my conviction that Gonstead chiropractic is the best chiropractic has to offer. This is why I exclusively use the Gonstead system of chiropractic in my practice.

I am not a stranger to education. I have, over the years, accumulated 4 degrees. The last degree before my Doctor of Chiropractic degree was a Doctor of Ministries degree. I had come to Oklahoma to be an assistant pastor and principal of a small Christian school. They weren't able to pay me, so I decided to continue secular work and volunteer for Christian work. I repaired over 6,000 VCR's in the Oklahoma City area for several years prior to my deciding to become a chiropractor.

I wondered that, if our bodies are "Fearfully and wonderfully made" -Psalm 139:14, and our bodies are self-healing, why should we use poisonous chemicals to fix a problem? This is what sparked my interest in chiropractic - its philosophy is that we are a created being with self-healing abilities. By fixing any interference to our body's natural processes, we can have optimum health. This led me to become a Gonstead chiropractor.

My biggest reward is seeing my patients go from ill health to good health, regardless of the name of their disease. I have even had a few patients who have gotten better after just one adjustment. That is why I am in chiropractic-helping folks like you.

Pearl and I are the proud parents of four wonderful children. Julie is married to Tyle and has 3 children, Maddie, Sam, and Will. Jonathan is a multimedia designer for the home office of  JC Penney in Dallas. Amy is married to Paul and has 2 children, Austin, and Kayla. Carrie is married to Andrew and has a son Chase.

Pearl is an avid reader and overly obsessed with her grand kids. I like to play my trumpet in church and community bands. I am a student of the Bible and teach an adult Sunday School class. I also spend way too much time in my home theater room watching loud movies.

How do I maintain my own health? Well, I see my Gonstead chiropractor regularly just to make sure everything is in its place. I sell and use NanoGreens10 food supplements. The Chiroflow Water Pillow is my pillow of choice. For many years, I have used water as my drink of choice. Extra virgin olive oil is my lipid of choice. I haven't taken any prescription drugs for many years, except recently I took 3 prescribed Motrins after a root canal. When I have any back pain, I use an ice pack on the area for 20 minutes, then walk around or get on my treadmill. Then I go to my Gonstead chiropractor. Thanks to Gonstead chiropractic, I lead a pretty normal life after many years of suffering with back pain. I am doing activities that I haven't done in 20 years! I tell my family and my patients that whenever they have a problem, unless it is an emergency, come to me first.. I love being in good health, especially now that Pearl and I are experiencing grand kids!
