General Info:
Dr. Greg Baldy and Dr. Alan Houfek are passionate about helping their patients experience pain relief and better overall health without drugs and without surgery. As the fifth of twelve children, and not running to the doctor or medicine cabinet for every scrape and sniffle, Dr. Baldy learned at an early age the power of the body to heal itself. When Dr. Baldy was growing up, his father worked as a railroad engineer. This opened the door for him to begin his career as a conductor for Conrail Railroad at age twenty-one. In this job, he found himself with the time to fulfill his desire to read and research more about how the human body works. He first learned about chiropractic while traveling throughout the Western United States. He sought care from several different chiropractors in Colorado for a significant spinal injury. This positive experience, along with his previous interest in health and nutrition inspired him to return to school at the age of twenty-nine to earn his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the prestigious Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, MO. Since then, he has taken numerous continuing-education courses, served as a board member in a number of professional organizations and regularly consults with other healthcare professionals to remain up to date on all state-of-the-art healing for spinal injuries. While Dr. Baldy's technical expertise is important, his personal experiences have taught him several essentials of good chiropractic healthcare that he couldn't have learned in books. He understands the importance of creating a positive, encouraging environment for his patients. He takes the time to listen to his patients, thoroughly explain their condition and educate them on how chiropractic can improve their life. It is this kind of care that has his patients thanking him for his genuine concern and support. Dr. Houfek first experienced the benefits of chiropractic at age 12. While riding the bus to school one day the bus hit a bump jarred Dr. Houfek's neck leaving it stuck to the side with severe pain. He distinctly remembers walking into the chiropractor's office with severe neck pain and walking out relieved and able to move his head. That experience later led him to attend Chiropractic school at Palmer West College of Chiropractic. "There is nothing I would rather be doing as a profession." He believes chiropractic is the best natural, non-invasive approach to achieving optimal health. Dr. Houfek chose with his wife to relocate back to Raleigh feeling it was the best place to educate and raise their family. He looks forward to enhancing the lives of individuals in the community by providing one of a kind family chiropractic care to the Triangle area. Dr. Alan Houfek has been treating families through chiropractic since 2003. His career began in and remained in Arizona, prior to moving his family to Raleigh. Dr. Houfek helped to run a thriving integrated practice in Fountain Hills, Arizona. There he combined chiropractic care with natural medicine to provide optimal relief for his patients. He believes all ages can benefit from chiropractic care and at the very least, that everyone deserves a spinal check-up. Call today and begin to experience pain relief like you have always wanted.
