An Honor and a Commitment: Being Recongnized for the Roanoker Platinum Award

We were so thrilled when we learned that our very own Dr. Skinner received "Platinum" recognition by The Roanoker for Best Chiropractor! His dedication to the Roanoke and New River Valleys is incredible and we are so glad that his hard work has not gone unnoticed by our community. We asked him to reflect on all that this award means to him, as a chiropractor with over 16 years experience. Here is what Dr. Skinner had to say:

A Meaningful Recognition

Having people take the time to vote for me for the Roanoker Platinum Award as a chiropractor is an incredible honor. This recognition tells me that I’ve had a meaningful, positive impact on my patients’ lives over the past 16 years—a responsibility I don’t take lightly. My career as a chiropractor is not just a job; it’s a lifelong passion, and this nomination only fuels my motivation to continue serving my patients with excellence and dedication.

Beyond Chiropractic Care

I have always taken great pride in providing the best chiropractic care possible. But beyond adjustments and spinal health, I also recognize the importance of a holistic approach to patient well-being. True health and wellness are multifaceted, and my goal has always been to help patients in every way I can—whether that means suggesting a vitamin or supplement, helping someone find a trusted fitness trainer or gym, or referring them to another healthcare specialist such as an occupational therapist, physical therapist, pain management doctor, orthopedic doctor, podiatrist, or neurologist.

A Multidisciplinary Approach

Many patients can benefit from a collaborative approach to care. Chiropractic care is a powerful tool in improving health, but it’s not the only one. Recognizing when a patient might benefit from additional resources and making the right recommendations is paramount to being a well-rounded provider. This approach builds trust and allows my patients to feel confident that their health and wellness are my top priorities.

Individualized Patient Care

At the end of the day, no two people are the same. Each patient has unique needs, and addressing those needs requires more than just one discipline—it requires a comprehensive, patient-centered approach. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve my patients in this way and honored to be recongnized for the Roanoker Platinum Award as a Chiropractor.

A Heartfelt Thank You

Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey; your trust and confidence mean the world to me. I will continue to work hard every day to ensure that my patients receive the best care possible—because their health and well-being matter.
