Meet Kevin Percuoco, D.C., Cert. MDT one of our Faculty Clinicians at Palmer Clinics. Dr. Percuoco attended Palmer College of Chiropractic and graduated in 2016.
WHY DID YOU BECOME A DOCTOR OF CHIROPRACTIC?:
I have always been interested in health care and the sciences. A conservative approach to health and wellness—one that emphasizes healthy lifestyle habits and behaviors—resonated with me as an effective way to help people improve their health. I also had several family members who became chiropractors before me, which influenced my decision to pursue the profession.
WHAT IS YOUR ADVICE FOR PATIENTS?:
Find a form of physical activity that is both sustainable and meaningful to you—and make it a regular part of your life.
WHAT IS YOUR #1 ADVICE FOR STUDENT INTERNS?:
The body of evidence supporting chiropractic care continues to grow. Seek opportunities to learn, challenge your current beliefs, and remain open to new perspectives so you can better serve your patients and community.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT BEING A CHIROPRACTOR?:
I enjoy the variety of people I meet, helping with the diverse health concerns they bring, and the opportunity to support them in reaching their goals. I find it rewarding to help individuals identify personalized strategies for overcoming health and wellness challenges.
