Chiropractors Ocotillo
Dr. Carson Robertson
Dr. Carson Robertson is a native of central Montana and obtained his bachelor's degree at the University of Montana. He subsequently earned his chiropractic degree from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Minnesota in 2004. While an athlete in school, he saw the benefits of chiropractic after multiple injuries.
With that in mind, his clinic places special emphasis on athletic injuries and has expertise in them. His clinic has blended sports and soft-tissue treatment with traditional chiropractic and physiotherapy. Many patients remark how he does so much more than any previous chiropractor or physical therapist.
Dr. Robertson is an adjunct member at Southern California University of Health Sciences, where he teaches Anatomy and Physiology and Chiropractic courses. Education, information, articles, multimedia teaching materials, and videos bridge the gap between the classroom and the clinic.
He is a firm believer in learning and education. Which is why he developed an extensive email and video series on your injuries. In addition, Dr. Robertson has written 10 books on musculoskeletal injuries and treatments that will help you with your recovery. He has also written several children's books.
No stranger to putting stress on his body and overcoming injury, Dr. Robertson has run multiple marathons and ultramarathons, including the Boston Marathon, Crown King 50K, Rim to Rim across the Grand Canyon, and the Javelina 100 Miler.
His dogs, Frances and Lola, provide therapy and wiggles in the office. Lately, he spends his free time teaching his young sons, Max, Noah, and Maachi, the importance of jeeps, motorcycles, dogs, home improvement, and keeping Mom on her toes.
Lorrie, Jen and Linda
Lorrie, Jen, and Linda are in charge of the front desk. They will greet you with a friendly smile and handle any questions you may have in the office.
FRANCES
Frances joined the Alpha Chiropractic family in 2016 as an intern. She quickly learned the ropes and was promoted to the office Alpha Dog. She loves greeting patients and distracting them from their treatments through wiggles, tricks, treats and encouraged pets. Frances is a part of a certified therapy dog team through Pet Partners. When she’s not looking at you through those shaggy eyebrows, she’s probably chasing a ball down, rolling around in the grass or volunteering with Paws 2 Read.
While most of our patients love having a therapy dog around, we understand that not everyone may be comfortable with this. Please let us know if you prefer Frances directs her attention and wiggles elsewhere.
Lola
Lola joined Alpha Chiropractic in 2020 as Community Outreach (and scratch) Coordinator. Alpha Dog Frances has taken Lola under her wing to teach her where all the treats and beds are located throughout the office, and which patients are most generous with said treats.
Lola loves to pounce, run, nudge, chase, and otherwise distract patients with her pouf of curls and sweet eyes. She will do nearly anything for a belly rub. Outside of the office, she enjoys stealing toddler toys, snacks, and cuddles.
