Some Stuff About Dr. Wilson
A Brief Background
Dr. Wilson is a native of Oregon where he attained his undergraduate college degree at Oregon State University in Corvallis Oregon. During college, he built on his knowledge of food and nutrition while working under several great chef's along with an additional focus of studying nutrition while acquiring his degree in microbiology. After starting graduate school in virology, he took the opportunity to begin working in clinical research in Seattle.
In 1988, he moved to Seattle where he spent most of his earlier science career at the University of Washington Medical Center performing molecular biology research in virology. He later moved to Davenport, Iowa to attain his Doctor of Chiropractic degree, to pursue a career change and a better opportunity to help people. A great opportunity quickly came about to take over a practice in Galesburg, Illinois, where he still maintains a busy practice.
Life happens and in 2010 he moved back to Davenport, IA with his wife Gloria, who is also a graduate of the Chiropractic technologist program from Palmer College, and who also works at the Galesburg office part time.
He has recently joined the Local Wellness, integrative health services office in Bettendorf, IA, and is excited to continue to expand his services there as well.
