Dedication & Motivation
Dr. Frank Lopez realized he wanted to become a chiropractor during his teaching internship for his undergraduate degree in Health Science Education.
While he was a student at the University of Florida, Dr. Lopez began to see a chiropractor for a chronic low back pain that began years prior while playing high school basketball. Within a few weeks of beginning chiropractic care, not only did he receive great relief from his low back pain, but also began to experience a better quality of health in general.
This had a profound impact on him, and although he had planned to begin teaching after graduation, decided instead to continue his education and pursue a Doctor of Chiropractic degree. This decision would allow him to have a more active role in improving a patients overall health.
Military Background
Upon graduation from the University of Florida, Dr. Lopez also received a commission as an Officer in the United States Army Reserve/National Guard. Dr Lopez served in the Georgia and Missouri Army National Guard as a Platoon Leader, Support Platoon Leader, and Battalion Signal Officer.
He also served in Operation Noble Eagle augmenting the security forces at Deseret Chemical Depot in Tooele, Utah in 2004.
Dr. Lopez enrolled in the Chiropractic School at Life University in September of 2000. After a few breaks from school due to military service, he received his Doctorate in December of 2005. Dr. Lopez joined his wife's practice in January 2006.
Extremity Treatment & General Chiropractic Care
While treating all types of patients, Dr. Lopez has a passion for treating patients with extremity problems. Whether you are a professional athlete whose performance is being affected, or a stay at home mother who can't do her daily walk because her ankle is bothering her, Dr. Lopez can help.
In his personal time, Dr. Lopez enjoys spending time with his family, watching movies, and playing golf.
