A Family Practice in Every Sense

In 1985, Dr. Rick and his wife, Dr. Megan, founded Erickson Clinic of Chiropractic together. For six wonderful years, they worked side by side, building a practice rooted in family values and comprehensive care. As their family grew, Dr. Megan transitioned to become what Dr. Rick affectionately calls a “stay-at-home doctor mom,” dedicating herself to raising their six children, including a son with special needs.

While Dr. Megan no longer sees patients, her influence remains strong in the practice’s family-oriented approach and community involvement. Together, the Ericksons have created a legacy of care extending far beyond the walls of their clinic.
