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.
