Brenda Hickswa:

I first became a new patient of Dr. Gerri's in 1998,  when she founded Ryan Chiropractic. Within  a few months my asthma went away! I became a member of Team Ryan Chiropractic in 1999 to work in the billing department.

I lost my hearing as an infant from a vaccine reaction. I am married and have two sons who are in college. It is a pleasure seeing patients come in for Chiropractic Care which helps them prevent drugs and surgery and realize Optimal Health.
