In 2016, I opened my own HealthQuest practice in West Bloomfield. I immediately sought out and established amazing relationships within the community, other business owners, and physicians. A large part of my dream was to develop a team that conveys a positive, upbeat, and energetic environment for the community that promotes healing and wellness. What a ride it has been: I met my beautiful wife and married into a wonderful family and am proud to declare that I have the best team an owner can ask for. What began as dream continues to develop into a reality: 2 years after opening, West Bloomfield won the award for the fastest growing clinic in the company that now has over 25 locations. In 2019, my team played a large role in helping me earn the “Young Entrepreneur of the Year” award for West Bloomfield. 5 months ago, I partnered with one of my therapists, AaronSuttles, and opened a second HealthQuest location in Beverly Hills.
