Head adjuster

Anyone who knows me will tell you I have opinions which is probably what drew me to chiropractic. A profession of people who march to the beat of a different drummer and look at health through a unique lens. Being part of the incredible change patients make is what makes this work so meaningful. I treat patients with a variety of issues ranging from headaches, neck and back pain to Ménière's/Vertigo, TMJD, post spinal-fusion surgery and many more.

Away from the office I enjoy a nice bike ride, outdoor activities with the dogs, scratching a pig and projects around the house. It is a busy season as my wife Dr. Emily McLeod is attending the Kansas State College of Veterinary Medicine with a May 2027 completion and we are still working through the Kansas Court system to get Oscar back with our last stop at the Kansas Supreme Court hopefully before the end of 2023.

Jenn is not only our front desk coordinator, maker of schedules, master of communication. Needless to say she Is one heck of an asset to us.

Outside of work Jenn is pretty busy playing super mom and wife while running three kiddos to activities and keeping up with Cooper the Golden Retriever.

Sara is a recent transplant to Kansas City all the way from Vancouver, Washington. She will assist on front desk duties while also helping coordinate our Spanish speaking patients.

Sara is also currently a college student, part-time nanny and runs for fun. She is still getting to know Kansas City so if you know of a good running location or somethng she must see pass it on.

Part-timer and expert couch sleeper

Gracyn is our 7 year old cane corso who has been with us since she was 9 weeks old. She is an amazing girl who just warms everyones heart with her loving affection generous mastiff snuffles. She is always down for a treat and most often will move right between your legs to properly position herself for a rump scratch.

Expert chair sleeper

Finn came to us in July 2021 when Gracyn heard him barking in the woods next to our house where the long chain around his neck was tied up in vines on an extremely hot evening. After getting him to the house he almost laid in the water bowl as he drank water for the longest time. We got him vet care for his wounds and then the little guy grew on us and before you know it he was part of the clan.

Now Finn is the sweetest boy who absolutely loves coming to the office and swears everyone is coming in to see him. He loves doing agility and is our all arounder dog who excels at everything. Take a quick watch of the video to see how far he has come.

Our favorite animal rug

Big D is our 9 year old senior foster from the Humane Society of Greater Kansas City. He was tied up next to the dumpster at the Humane Society overnight along with a smaller dog. Upon seeing the Facebook post Dr. Dave went for a visit knowing the cane corso breed does not do well in those environments. A couple weeks later and he was living with in our foster care. When he first came to our house he would only lay on the concrete floors then progressed to dog bed after 6 months. Diesel has excelled in the little over a year he has been with us. He loves to get his eyes rubbed and rump scratched if he gets up off the floor. It’s hard work being an old dog.

Supreme Court Special

Oscar is our 6 year old cane corso who is famous not only in the show ring but also the court room as he is one of the few dog ownership cases to reach the Supreme Court at the state level with our case being held in Kansas.
