Originally from Salina, Kansas, Dr. Tom played football at Kansas Wesleyan University before transferring to the University of Kansas and earning a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Organismal Biology. Dr. Tom saw the amazing effects chiropractic care can have on injured athletes while competing at the college level. This sparked his interest to help people heal quickly and naturally. With cum laude honors, Dr. Tom earned a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Cleveland Chiropractic College in Overland Park. He learned many techniques (Manual Adjustments and Activator, ART) that he used to treat his patients. Instead of providing a quick fix, he sought out the root cause of injury or pain.
