Our Chiropractors: Dr. O'Hara & Dr. Cox
Chiropractor Michael P. O'Hara, D.C.
Dr. O’Hara graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, in 2008. While at Palmer, he was accepted into the Troxell Internship Program to be mentored by Dr. Larry Troxell, himself a colleague of Dr. Gonstead. Dr. O’Hara refined his skills through the internship program in order to provide excellent Gonstead chiropractic care. In fact, the Gonstead Methodology Institute recognized Dr. O’Hara for the hundreds of training hours he completed, above and beyond the requirement for licensure. Dr. O’Hara maintains an active chiropractic license in Wisconsin and Iowa.
Dr. O’Hara has over 10 years of clinical experience in the Gonstead system. Before moving to Wisconsin, Dr. O’Hara maintained a private practice in Oelwein, Iowa. He also taught anatomy and physiology courses at Hawkeye Community College and Northeast Iowa Community College. Dr. O’Hara continues to hone his skills by attending numerous Gonstead Methodology Institute seminars each year.
Committed to community service, Dr. O’Hara provided chiropractic care to a diverse group of patients from varied backgrounds through the Iowa Free Clinics network in Waterloo, Iowa. He also participated in the Tanaka Chiropractic Mission to Guatemala and Palmer’s chiropractic experience abroad to Brazil, improving the health of residents in rural communities.
As a third-generation Gonstead practitioner, Dr. O’Hara is honored to practice in Dr. Gonstead’s clinic and seeks to provide the highest quality of chiropractic care to relieve patients’ pain and improve their overall health and wellness.
