Chiropractor

Vincent Diana D.C.

My philosophy when caring for patients is to establish trust and then identify any source of their pain and/or dysfunction. It's important to understand because some conditions may have gone unaddressed for a long time. Listening to the patient allows a doctor to establish a proper diagnosis, a realistic treatment plan and realistic goals for a return to activity. Health care partnerships also let the patient know whether they are in the right place for care or need to see another specialist.

Why I Entered Medicine

Both my father and older brother are caring and talented chiropractors, devoted to improving the health of their patients. At a young age, while playing sports and eventually college football, I was able to maintain an injury-free career through chiropractic care.

Community Involvement

I am involved with my church and with civic organizations. I plan to become involved with both youth and professional sports organizations.

Personal Interests

I have multiple ways to stay busy in my free time. I enjoy ATV and off-road motorcycle riding, as well as small engine repair and restoration. I also like hunting, fishing and the outdoors. I'm a fan of sports.
