Meet Dr. Kevin Smith
My friends and family thought I was crazy.”
Dr. Kevin Smith
Age 34 with a wife, three small children, an accounting degree with 15 years of business experience. Why are you going to chiropractic school?
Well the story began with my wife Jane, a registered nurse. Our youngest daughter was just born and we were moving into a house that took many years to build. Jane began to experience symptoms of rapid heart beats, numbness on her face, a sense of panic, and just plain fear. We would rush to the ER (nurses know too much and have seen the rare cases) and tests would not reveal much. After halter monitors and brain scans etc, the diagnosis of Panic Attacks was made and the solution was psychotropic medication.
My wife did not want to pursue that line of treatment due to the side effects and how the drugs made her feel. My cousin recommended a local chiropractor who had helped her and we took her advice. Neither of us had any chiropractic experience and we were somewhat skeptical (especially my wife having come from a medical background). After some time with consistent care, the symptoms faded away and I was really intrigued and impressed with the results, since no surgery or drugs were used.
My Dream of Helping People
I met my wife’s chiropractor for lunch and decided to pursue a Doctor of Chiropractic degree. The closest school was the University of Bridgeport College of Chiropractic in Connecticut. I moved there for 4 years, alone, coming home on weekends. God provided a wonderful wife and children who sacrificed a great deal so I could realize my dream of helping people with their health problems without the use of drugs or surgery.
I have been helping people for 17 years now and I am blessed to have seen people who were told they would have headaches for life, or others told that surgery was their only option, to now live free of pain and without the side effects of drugs. I wish all people would try the non-invasive treatment of chiropractic first and my mission is to provide that option to all who desire better health.
Away from Mullica Hill Chiropractic
I have been married to my wife Jane for 32 years and we have three children. My daughter Abby is an adult oncology Nurse Practitioner in Philadelphia. My son AJ is a Pastor who is married to Leah Smith, a singer/songwriter. They have a daughter, Ara and son, Soren. My daughter Ally is a teacher and she is married to Dan Lisa, who is a Philadephia police officer. They have a son, Justus. Jane and I have always been active in our local church and we enjoy hiking and going to the beach to read and relax.
My family receives regular chiropractic care and now that my wife and I have lost 150 pounds between us, that gym membership is finally getting used again. My philosophy is “lose weight to exercise,” the other way around did not work for me.
