Dr. Tom enjoys everything the Pennsylvania outdoors has to offer from fishing for steelhead in the tributaries of Lake Erie to snowmobiling Parker Dam trails.  Dr. Tom is constantly striving to achieve more excellence in his clinical skills, so he can best serve his community. He is always attending trainings and seminars to build his knowledge with new and better ways to help his patients. He started practice in Altoona in March of 1999 and has one of the largest centers in the area.  In the next 5 years he plans on having one of the largest wellness based centers in central PA serving the community’s chiropractic and wellness needs. He wants to continue to have the latest in cutting edge technology so that people can really see and understand how important chiropractic is in the wellness paradigm! His vision is to have a new generation of children in the community who are un-medicated and expressing perfect health and vitality. His goal is to create a paradigm shift, so that people will realize that wellness chiropractic care should be their FIRST step in healthcare regime, and dangerous drugs the LAST resort.
