Phenix City
Spine & Joint Center, LLC
Stephen B.
Cooper, DC
The Phenix City Spine and
Joint Center is a clinic dedicated to providing quality healthcare. The clinic
deals with many conditions commonly associated with chiropractic such as
herniated discs, migraine headaches, lower back pain, shoulder and elbow pain,
tennis and golfer’s elbow, carpal tunnel, TMJ, hip pain, tensor fascitas, ankle
pain, sciatica, auto and work related injuries. Many people have an image that
chiropractic is limited to these conditions and are not part of the medical
community. Many patients who may come in for lower back problems also have
digestive, circulatory, diabetic and many other issues. Nutritional counseling
and a strong relationship with many of the family physicians, pediatricians,
podiatrists, and orthopedic surgeons who service this area allows us to manage
many conditions and arrange for a multidisciplinary approach whenever needed.
Dr. Cooper was born in Detroit, MI. He earned a
bachelor’s degree while on a partial scholarship at Grand Valley State
University in Grand Rapids, MI and promptly married his fiancé` of 4 years,
Lisa Lawrence. They then headed to Iowa where Dr. Cooper received a 4 year full
academic and athletic scholarship at Palmer College of Chiropractic in
Davenport, IA graduating with both academic and research honors. In 1992 he was
selected with 15 other Doctors of Chiropractic to implement chiropractic in the
military and VA. He was the first chiropractor to hold a position at Fort
Benning in the Martin Army Hospital System. Dr. Cooper moved his practice to
Phenix City, AL in 2006 where he practices today. He currently sits on the
board of the Direct Services Corp. providing meals on wheels and other support
services through Georgia counties and is part of the Alabama State Chiropractic
Association’s hospital committee.
Our Clinic has participated in several health fairs for
local churches and local businesses. We participate in annual seminars to
further our knowledge in chiropractic so we can assure successful healthcare to
our patients. We partner with the Phenix
City school district to provide students with knowledgeable information and
give hope for the future.
