Who
We Are:
History:
Doctors Vaughan and Lisa Dabbs
opened Dabbs Chiropractic Wellness Center in February of 1989, having
worked in Toronto, Ontario for one year prior to their move to Columbia,
MD. They envisioned a wellness oriented health care facility that included
chiropractic care, physical therapy and health education for people of
all ages, so as to improve the quality of their patients' lives. Their
commitment to chiropractic has led them to succeed in their vision, and
they have created a brand new clinic which includes five doctors of chiropractic,
and a large support staff. Dr. Todd Johnsonbaugh joined the practice in
1997. Also, in 2004, Dabbs saw the addition of Manual Physical Therapist
Joanne Colburn . All of the practitioners pride themselves on friendly,
knowledgeable patient interaction and an efficient office policy. Together,
the staff of Dabbs Chiropractic and PT is an important and appreciated
part of the workings of the office.

Philosophy:
Our patients are the heart
of our clinic, and we believe that serving people through chiropractic
is an honor. We strive to give the best of care to our patients and to
contribute to their health by helping them to live their lives as effectively
as possible. Among the six of us we practice a variety of techniques,
and it is important to us that each patient gets the best techniques for
him or her. A personal, friendly approach to effective treatment is our
goal.
