Common questions

What does FPSC(C) mean?

Fellowship in Primary Spine Care (Candidate). Primary spine care is a post-doctoral program training clinicians to serve as the first point of contact for spine complaints — triage, diagnosis, and management across the full range of spinal conditions rather than a single technique. The fellowship is awarded jointly through the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at SUNY Buffalo and Cleveland University. The trailing (C) denotes candidate status in that fellowship.

Where does he practice?

Champion Chiropractic & Spinal Injury, 11050 Hickman Road, Clive, Iowa 50325 — serving the Des Moines metropolitan area, including West Des Moines, Urbandale, Waukee, Johnston, and Windsor Heights.

Does he work with personal injury attorneys?

Yes. The practice treats auto-injury and spinal trauma patients on referral from attorneys and works alongside counsel from initial evaluation through final impairment rating, supplying the clinical documentation, imaging analysis, and causation narratives a claim is built on.

What makes spinal injury documentation different from ordinary chiropractic notes?

Ligamentous injury frequently does not appear on standard MRI, which is why a normal scan is often mistaken for the absence of injury. Quantified radiographic analysis measures translation and angular motion against published thresholds, turning a disputed subjective complaint into a measured finding with a stated methodology behind it.

How can his license and credentials be verified?

Iowa chiropractic licensure and any public board action can be checked directly through the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing. National provider registration is verifiable under NPI 1104012467 in the NPPES registry. Educational credentials can be confirmed with the issuing institutions named above.
