Dr. Phillip Smith, DC

Dr. Smith completed his undergraduate studies at Wabash College and Illinois College before he received his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Logan Chiropractic College in 1977. He practiced for two years in southern Illinois before moving to Gonzales in 1980, where he has maintained a successful private practice ever since.

Background
Dr. Smith and his wife Vera, have four sons, Shannon, Nathan, Matthew and Jonathan. When not working with patients, Dr. Smith spends his time as a volunteer for the Civil Air Patrol US Air Force Auxiliary. He is the local squadron commander. Besides caring for his patients, flying is what he most enjoys.

Why did he choose chiropractic---

“In high school I suffered a football injury to my lower back which eventually caused me to suffer from severe bladder infections. These did not improve with conventional medical care. As a last resort, after years of suffering, I gave chiropractic a try and for the first time I started to get better. I have spent my career providing chiropractic care such that others can find wellness without medications and surgery. I treat my patients the way I treat my family with respect and compassion, but also with a deep respect for the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Chiropractic care facilitates that natural healing, boosts the immune system, and allows the body to maintain wellness. While chiropractic care and therapy help to relieve pain following an accident or injury, it is important that patients understand the need to maintain their health through on going care. We focus on nutrition, weight loss, exercise, healthy sleep habits and managing the effects of stress on the body. Patients often give me a list of health goals such as: Restored health - Increased Energy - Improved Sleep - Less Stress - Clearer thinking and better focus. That’s a big list, but Chiropractic Care allows the body to restore health and many patients reach their goals. I encourage you to come visit our clinic and talk about your goals. It is always a pleasure to serve our patients.” - Dr. Smith

I was referred to Dr. Smith's office by a friend after I began having serious back and neck pain. Occasionally the pain was so severe that I was unable to get out of bed. My favorite part of chiropractic care is that I am now more energetic, pain free, and able to accomplish all of my daily tasks. I plan to continue chiropractic care to help support an overall healthy lifestyle and long term wellness. To top it all off, Dr. Smith has the friendliest staff members!

"Friendly staff and wonderful experience so far. Dr.Smith has taken care of me and helped set me on a path of recovery. 10/10 would recommend."

- Caleb S.
After suffering from pain and stiffness in my upper body and neck, I came across Dr. Smith’s contact information online. I was so tired of hurting all the time, that I decided to give chiropractic care a try. I was hoping to get answers and relief from the neck pain that brought me in, but little did I know how greatly my life would change after beginning care. I am now, not only pain free, but my allergies have improved, stomach issues I was having have resolved, and my energy levels have also increased! I am now on a maintenance program and consider myself part of the Smith Chiro family! I will stay under regular chiropractic care for the rest of my life. I believe had I not began care when I did, in another 10 years I would be unable to enjoy life to the fullest, and I would be suffering with unforgiving pain. Dr. Smith and his staff are so great and welcoming, and the office is always a laid back and fun place to be!

I was referred to Smith Chiropractic by a friend back in 1986, because I was suffering from severe headaches every day. I was having such terrible headaches, that I was taking a bottle of Excedrin every week. Since beginning regular chiropractic care, I rarely have headaches and am able to keep up with my very busy grandchildren!Without chiropractic care, I fear I would have ended up having a life dependent on prescription drugs and painkillers. The decision to take on a lifetime of chiropractic care was made many years ago, so that I could ensure my latter years wouldn’t be spent watching everyone else enjoy life. The results from chiropractic care are real and lasting, not just a “quick fix”. Dr. Smith and his staff are always smiling, making their clinic a fun and inviting place to be!

- Brittney R.
I've been going to Dr. Smith for 3 months now, and have felt no pain. Knows his stuff and has a very awesome staff. Can't say enough. Love them all!

- Kim C.
"I was referred to Dr. Smith by my parents, who also saw him for regular chiropractic care. When I first came to his office I was having severe neck and back pain which was interfering with my active lifestyle. Every adjustment allows me to wake up feeling new and refreshed! The atmosphere and staff at his office are outstanding! It has become my second home. I have no doubt that I'll introduce chiropractic care early on in my children's lives so that they can live a long, healthy life like I do!"
