I
come from a long line of Chiropractors; all the way from my great
grandfather, grandfather and father to myself. Since a boy I remember
hanging out in my father's office. Every young boy wants to be like
his father, and so it was with me. Little did I know my career path
would bring me to Huntington Beach CA. When I arrived here in 1997 I
knew this is where my soul belonged. It was like I had finally come
home. I love the coastal life and love even more being a part of my
patients improvement through Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Massage and our
other services. Getting them there through all the many services here
at Elite Health is my main goal.
