Teresa, CA
Certified Chiropractic Assistant
Teresa Sloane is from Eugene, Oregon and she was raised in Hermiston, Oregon. Growing up, she also spent time living in Onamia, Minnesota and Custer, South Dakota. In her spare time, Teresa can usually be found outdoors on an early morning hike. She loves to travel to warm areas, and she and her husband even have a home in Nicaragua! Teresa is a mother to three grown kids, and she has nine grandkids! Her favorite foods are avocado, sweet potatoes, beans, and rice. Her favorite restaurant is Cafe Yumm, but if you want to try it, you’ll have to travel to the Pacific Northwest!
Teresa is a dog lover; she has a little one-eyed pug named Tia! One of Teresa’s favorite things to do in her free time is travel. She has been to so many wonderful destinations including Nicaragua and the Caribbean. She has recently filled a ‘bucket list’ trip when she and her hubbie traveld to Italy, Israel, and Istanbul.
Brittany
Certified Chiropractic Assistant
Brittany was born and raised on a farm in Beavercreek, Oregon! Being an only child, she spent most of her childhood camping and playing with cousins. She and her family made regular vacations to Puerto Vallarta, and she enjoys Mexico and Mexican food! She and her son Karson left the Northwest in 2019 and decided to make Arizona their home. We’re so glad that she is here 🙂
She is very ‘outdoorsy’ and her free time is often spent hiking with her son and her bulldog ‘Khaza’. When she isn’t on a trail, just look to the water. She loves Carlsbad, CA, pools, and the lake.
She has a ‘fearless’ side that drives her to want to go skydiving- yikes! Oh, and she really wants to go to Morocco! These are on her to-do list. If you have skydived or traveled, feel free to share your experience with her!
Gretchen
Chiropractic Assistant
Gretchen Patterson was born in Ponce, Puerto Rico. She moved to Fort Hood, TX at the age of 20. In 1989, Gretchen moved to Arizona and has lived in the Grand Canyon state ever since. She is a woman of many hobbies–-she loves crafting, reading, photography, acting like a kid with her grandkids, and annoying her husband of 19 years, James. Her favorite kind of food is Italian. Gretchen has a crazy, dysfunctional family, but she loves them to pieces and wouldn’t have it any other way. She has three children and seven grandchildren who are a blessing to her! Gretchen is happy to travel anywhere there is an ocean, but when asked what her favorite travel destination is, she says it’s “home.” Gretchen has no bucket list. She goes wherever her path takes her!
Robin, CA

Robin is the person you want on your team when you have had an auto accident! She has worked in the insurance field for over 20 years and has become very experienced in dealing with all facets of auto injury work.

Robin is the mom to the cutest little blondies! She is very active and rarely slows down. Technology is a bit of a hobby for her. Having traveled all over North America, Canada, and Mexico, she also jaunted across country a few times. Visiting 44 states, she has lived in both Cabo San Lucas and Maui.
Proficient in speaking Spanish, she also enjoys Scuba diving in Cabo San Lucas.

Faith is a big part of her life and she received her degree from Grand Canyon University. She came to us after having been a medical scribe here in the valley.

“Dr”. Gracie Koch (expert dog sniffologist)
Mood improving expert!
Although “Dr. Gracie” is not much for adjusting, and she can’t give any nutritional advice, she does bring a lot to the table. Sometimes it is a rock, and sometimes it is something even more interesting. What she doesn’t fail to do is to bring a smile to the faces of everyone she meets. She is a goldendoodle with enough love for the entire state of Arizona.
She is very smart, and sometimes even a little mischievous. When she makes an occasional visit to the office, she always has love to share. We all just want to grow up to be the kind of people that Gracie sees from her doggie eyes! We have some high aspirations… 🙂
