During his time here, he’s taught more than 25,000 chiropractors. Dr. Strang, a legend within Palmer and the chiropractic community, retired in March 2021. He leaves behind a legacy of chiropractic philosophy that, by way of the thousands of students he helped shape into chiropractors, has helped an exponential number of people around the world.

Dr. Seaba completed her rotation under Mike Olson, D.C., CCSP, ICSP (Main, ’11) at Bigfork Valley Hospital. Dr. Olson began this program six years ago and has hosted 13 students at the hospital.
“I’m adamant about chiropractors needing to be involved in integrative care,” says Dr. Olson.
To honor her legacy and love of chiropractic, Peter contributed $50,000 to establish the Christian Mary Martin Memorial Endowed Scholarship. As the current Palmer Florida campus president and a former scholarship recipient himself, Dr. Martin has witnessed firsthand how scholarships not only provide financial support to students but also, and sometimes more importantly, boost their morale by recognizing their academic efforts.
In elementary school, I suffered from osteochondritis dissecans and had to have several surgeries. This sparked my interest in the human body and how it operates, so I knew I wanted to pursue some form of health care. At the age of 15, I was diagnosed with a right thoracic idiopathic scoliosis. This experience nearly solidified my interest in chiropractic, and yet the idea of becoming a doctor of osteopathic medicine still intrigued me.
