Motion is Medicine

From the Army to anatomy

Dr. Chamberlain served 22 years in the U.S. Army, retiring as a Chief Warrant Officer. Toward the end of that career, he set his sights on veterinary medicine and decided to pursue a lifelong love of animals. During his own years of hard physical work in the field, he experienced firsthand what long-term strain does to a body, and how much of a difference the right ongoing care and training can make. That experience shapes how he practices today. He doesn't treat veterinary chiropractic care as a quick fix. He treats it as one part of an ongoing plan with your primary veterinarian to keep your animal moving well for years, not just weeks.

Dr. Chamberlain earned his DVM from the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine, along with a Master of Science in Comparative and Experimental Medicine with a concentration in gross anatomy, and a Master of Public Health. He went on to complete his veterinary chiropractic training through BackBone Academy and earn certification through the International Veterinary Chiropractic Association (IVCA). That path, from a military career into a doctorate and on to a specialized certification, says a lot about how much he values constantly learning and pushing himself further.

Teacher first

Today, Dr. Chamberlain teaches veterinary anatomy to rising veterinarians, and that role shapes his hands as much as his classroom. To him, veterinary chiropractic care is applied, functional anatomy: the perfect place for anatomical understanding to meet real, hands-on practice. Because he knows large and small animals inside and out,  he brings a level of insight to every adjustment and every personalized therapy plan that's hard to find anywhere else. He's also a forever student, always exploring new technology and techniques so he can teach his students better and treat your animal more effectively, using the same tools side by side.

How he works with you and your animal

Clients describe Dr. Chamberlain as disciplined, easy to talk to, and quick to put both people and animals at ease. He's honest about what he sees, walks you through his thinking in plain language, and only recommends care he'd choose for his own pets. He values hearing your perspective on your animal too. You know them best and that conversation shapes the plan as much as anything he finds during the exam.

Home and family

Outside the clinic, Dr. Chamberlain is a husband and father who has loved animals for as long as he can remember. That's part of what drew him to this work in the first place, and it's part of why he treats every animal that comes through the door like one of his own.
