Meet the Doctor

Ryan Ford, DC, CFMP
With dual degrees from Palmer College of Chiropractic and advanced certification in Functional Medicine from FMU, Dr. Ford has spent the last two and a half decades bridging the gap between traditional chiropractic care and cutting-edge, evidence-based medicine. He is currently advancing his expertise through a fellowship in Spine Care at the SUNY Buffalo Jacobs School of Medicine—one of the few chiropractors in the country pursuing such a path.

Dr. Ford is also certified through the Human Metabolic Research & Development Organization (M.E.R.I.T.) and serves as a certified provider for Prodrome Science, enabling him to integrate advanced lipidomic and metabolic testing into patient care. His work is deeply rooted in the principles of personalized precision medicine, a rapidly growing field that addresses the root causes of illness instead of masking symptoms.

In addition to clinical practice, Dr. Ford teaches a specialized health and wellness course at a private school, helping students apply functional medicine principles to their daily lives. He has also been a contributing health writer for both local and national publications and is currently completing his first book on a unifying theory of chronic illness. His new functional medicine clinic reflects his core belief: that real healthcare is personalized, preventive, and rooted in science.
