Palmer Main student Eddy Ruzga grew up as a multi-sport athlete and is a miliary veteran. He sees chiropractic care as a means of promoting health, strengthening family bonds, and laying a solid foundation for future generations.
Dr. Stephans took part in a VA Student Rotation at the Cape Coral VA, followed by a preceptorship. These opportunities allowed her to provide care to a wide variety of patients with unique medical cases under several mentors.
Once Pase graduates in December 2022, she’ll be heading off to become the sole chiropractor at the community-based outreach clinic within the Black Hills VA.
“I started to notice that some of my patients who saw a chiropractor had better outcomes than those who didn’t, and by the time I retired from the Air Force I was tired of the allopathic medicine route. Plus, my dad is a chiropractor. I saw how many people he helped and knew that’s what I wanted to do next,” Lafe says.
