Dr. Mike is a life-long Chicagoan who first saw a Chiropractor 25 years ago. Says Dr. Mike, “At the time, I was 25 and pretty hopeless. I had chronic, debilitating pain for the previous ten years from playing sports that was unsolved. Nothing I had tried worked. I had no idea what a Chiropractor was but a friend suggested I go after I re-injured myself. I had no clue that I was about to change my life for the better.”
Dr. McVady had a 180-degree turnaround with his health and went on to graduate from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 2000, immediately opening his own office thereafter.
“I understand where my patients are at. The frustration, the disappointment of not being able to live life to the fullest… I draw heavily on my own experiences to help my patients reach their goals,” says Dr. McVady.
Dr. Mike uses a variety of techniques to suit his patients’ needs. He has worked on everyone from seniors to infants, construction workers to office workers, as well as amateur and professional athletes.
Dr. McVady has one daughter, Emma, who just started at The University of Missouri. In his free time, Dr. Mike is a singer/songwriter with three albums to his credit. He has also sung jazz standards professionally. In addition, he recently won a Chicago Golden Gloves boxing title. He currently is an NPC Masters Men’s Physique competitor in the over-50 class.
