Peterson, Gretchen DC

Sandia Chiropractic Care is owned & operated by Gretchen Gilbertson DCAPC. Dr. Gilbertson studied for eight years at Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Bloomington, Minnesota where she received her chiropractic degree in 1988. To become a fully licensed chiropractor, she was required to pass stringent national board examinations as well as the normal state exam. Doctors of chiropractic care must satisfy a demanding academic curriculum that exceeds that of medical doctors in such areas as anatomy, physiology, chemistry, diagnosis, and x-ray, we'll ask you to complete some forms that will provide us the necessary background information to enable us to begin your treatment. Then, Dr. Gretchen will sit down with you to discuss your needs. A medical history will be taken. Genuine care and concern for the patient is just as important in the healing process as the medical techniques, says Dr. Gretchen. My practice is based on providing as much service as the patient requires. You aren't just a number to us - we want you to receive the kind of personalized care that you deserve, The spine is the core or stem of the human body. Every action we take revolves and balances around that core and when then core is stressed or out of alignment, it can affect any and all parts of the body.
