Dr. Josh received his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University in Atlanta, GA. He is a member of the International Pediatric Chiropractic Association (ICPA).

After years of suffering from sports injuries and headaches, Dr. Josh’s wife convinced him to visit a chiropractor dedicated to family wellness. With regular adjustments and modification of his daily activities, he did not only receive relief from his headaches and pain, he surprisingly improved his quality of life. After his “aha moment” of what chiropractic care is really about, his chiropractor encouraged him in his career change.
