The Practice

Known for his unorthodox approach, Doc evaluates the body as a whole to determine how the problem originated. Most problems do not originate at the area of pain. Knee pain often has its origins in faulty foot alignment. Lower back pain is often a result of flat feet or inhibited gluteal muscles. Hamstring pain is RARELY from an actual strain of the muscle. It is more commonly a trigger point referral pattern from the gluteus medius musculature!!! The list goes on and on. Unfortunately, most medical practitioners do not take the time to thoroughly examine the patient. Many never even lay a finger on the patient prior to diagnosing them. Doc Dossman is all “hands on” and plays detective in order to remedy the cause of the problem, rather than the symptom itself. His goal is restoration of function. Pain relief is secondary to discovering the root of the issue.

Some would liken Doc Dossman to a mechanic or a carpenter with a large tool belt. He assesses the situation and determines what tool best fits that particular patient’s need. Because a knee is a knee and a hip is a hip, you don’t have to be an athlete to benefit from his services. He simply prides himself in treating everyone like a World Class Athlete!!
