Dr. ouillette
owner & award-winning chiropractor
Dr. Ouillette is a graduate of Grand Valley State University, where he obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Science. In 2016, he completed his graduate education at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa earning his Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) degree with magna cum laude distinction. Following graduation, Dr. Ouillette worked at various practices in Michigan, including a multidisciplinary clinic that specialized in regenerative and natural medicine. Dr. Ouillette was named “2020 top Chiropractor” by Hour Detroit.
At Palmer College, Dr. Ouillette worked as a student instructor in physical diagnosis and volunteered to travel abroad to Brazil, working as a chiropractor within their health care system. As he transitioned back to Michigan, he became a member of the Michigan association of Chiropractic and started working in Bay City, MI; to be close to family. More notably, Dr. Ouillette was working alongside physical therapists and medical doctors, gaining experience in combined approaches to best address patient’s needs.
Dr. Ouillette and his family moved to Howell MI in late 2017 and began a new journey that led to opening a practice in Brighton MI. Dr. Ouillette maintains the same methods/approach that he gained through past experiences and applies a combined treatment approach of chiropractic and physiotherapy. He believes that the musculoskeletal system must be addressed as a whole, and the treatment approach is often blurred between traditional chiropractic and what we relate most often to physical therapy.
Dr. Ouillette is passionate about further education and being an educator for his patients and communities. He utilizes a full range of Chiropractic techniques, to address patients’ individual needs, and combines others to create a unique approach to conditions. He believes there are often many layers to one’s issues and searching for the cause rather than treating the symptoms is the best approach. He looks forward to serving the community and helping his patients achieve optimum health and wellness.
