Having had very little success with previous medical care, Dr. Steve grudgingly decided to try chiropractic. Dr. Steve’s first chiropractic adjustment changed his life. He not only felt better, but he was healthier too.

Dr. Steve continued his chiropractic care to correct the problems his chiropractor found. Throughout the care he learned more about the practice of chiropractic. Dr. Steve continued playing lacrosse at LeMoyne. He graduated in 1988 with a BS in Biology and a dual minor in Chemistry and Philosophy. Dr. Steve then attended Los Angeles School of Chiropractic. He graduated from LACC in 1991. Dr. Steve came back to the Syracuse area and Practiced for two years with his original Chiropractor.

In 1994 Dr. Steve opened Family Chiropractic North in North Syracuse. In 2003 Dr. Steve purchased the building that Family Chiropractic Prevention Center is now located in. Throughout the 2 years in group practice and 28 years in private practice, Dr. Steve has had the pleasure of meeting thousands of people.
