A Team Approach to Healthcare – An Update

November 10, 2025 Posted by Dr. Donahue

Building a health care team you trust.

Great teams aren’t built on talent alone—they’re built on communication, trust, and the ability to combine different strengths to achieve a common goal.

In sports, that means a championship.

In business, it means innovation and growth.

In healthcare, it means helping you live a longer, healthier, more active life.

You don’t have to go it alone when it comes to your health.

The smartest path forward is having a circle of providers—each with a different specialty—working together for you.

Why it Matters:

This approach is called multidisciplinary care, and the idea is simple: when experts from different backgrounds collaborate, you receive more comprehensive, personalized, and effective care.

Here’s what that can look like in practice:

  • Comprehensive Perspective: A chiropractor looks at your movement, posture, and spine. A physical therapist focuses on strength and mobility. A nutritionist helps optimize your diet. A primary care doctor monitors labs and screenings. Together, they see the whole picture instead of just one piece.
  • Prevention Over Prescription: Instead of defaulting to medication or surgery, a team approach prioritizes safe, non-invasive strategies. Research shows chiropractic care alone can reduce the likelihood of needing opioids by up to 55%, which is a major win in the fight against dependency and side effects.
  • Faster Recovery: Whether you’re healing from an injury or managing a chronic condition, progress is quicker when each provider knows what the others are doing. This avoids gaps, overlaps, and conflicting advice.
  • Better Communication: You’ve probably experienced the frustration of repeating your health story over and over to different doctors. With a team that communicates, your story only needs to be told once—and every provider is on the same page.
  • Personalized Performance: Athletes have long relied on teams of healthcare professionals to keep them at the top of their game. Why should it be any different for the rest of us? Whether your goal is running a marathon, staying active with your kids, or just waking up pain-free, a healthcare team helps you get there more efficiently.

The Bigger Picture:

Think about the people you already trust with your health. Maybe you see us for chiropractic care. Maybe you have a family physician or a dentist you’ve been with for years. Now imagine adding one or two more professionals—such as a physical therapist, massage therapist, or nutrition coach—who work in coordination with your existing providers.

That’s when things really click. You’re no longer juggling opinions or trying to be the go-between.

Instead, your circle of care works together to keep you healthy, strong, and proactive about your future.

Next Steps:

Like building any great team, the key is choosing the right players. Over time, we’ve built strong relationships with trusted local providers across multiple specialties who also believe in this collaborative, patient-first approach.

If you’d like to strengthen your circle of care, just ask.

We’d be happy to recommend providers who can complement the chiropractic care, rehab, and active recovery you receive here—so you can build a team that supports your health goals now and for years to come.
