Through his education and early professional experience, he developed a passion for helping others improve their health and quality of life through chiropractic care. He enjoys building meaningful relationships with his patients and takes pride in providing personalized care to help them reach their goals.

Growing up, Dr. Andrew played baseball throughout high school and continued his career at the collegiate level as a left-handed pitcher.

Through his own experiences with chiropractic care, he saw the positive impact it could have on performance, recovery, and overall well-being.

In addition to baseball, Dr. Andrew spent more than 10 years working in the construction field during the summers and throughout the school year while pursuing his education. The physical nature of construction work provided him with another perspective on the wear and tear that the body can experience through demanding work and repetitive movements.

Dr. Andrew is also passionate about being involved in and giving back to the community. He currently serves as an Ambassador with the Manitowoc County Chamber of Commerce, where he enjoys connecting with local businesses, community members, and organizations and helping support the growth of the Manitowoc County community.
