"When I discovered chiropractic care and experienced the benefits, it all made sense to me. Not only did it help with the pain I had suffered, but I just felt more alive! That’s when I decided I wanted to be a chiropractor, and serve the Walnut Creek community, where I was born and raised."
There is nothing more gratifying than to see a patient return to our office with better function, better health, and a smile!
An Education in Chiropractic

Outside of the Practice
Dr. Holmes is happily married to his wife, a first-grade teacher in the community. They feel blessed to have three happy and healthy children. "We just love to spend time in Walnut Creek, and truly enjoy the people within the community. We feel fortunate to live, work, and play in such a wonderful area!" Dr. Holmes also enjoys golf, tennis and traveling. "I still remember the concerns and apprehension I had when I went to the chiropractor for the first time. So we make it a point to explain everything in advance, answer questions, and attempt to over communicate," explains Dr. Holmes. "Patients appreciate that."
