Dr. Matthew Marcotte, DC, CFMP (Founder)
Dr. Matthew Marcotte has been a board certified Chiropractic Physician since 2002. He is originally from Ontario, Canada. Since arriving here in Columbus in 2006, he has stayed and practiced locally in the Lewis Center area proudly serving his community. He found himself wanting to find better answers for patients healthcare concerns rather then just the pill for every ill approach. This lead him to gaining his certification in Functional Medicine in 2013. He knows people need better health care then just drugs and surgeries. They need to find the root cause of their health concerns and correct those. He specializes in digestive and autoimmune conditions. Dr. Marcotte himself suffered with both those conditions and through his functional medicine approach he found the answers he never was able to get from traditional medical approaches. He knows what if feels like not getting the answers we all deserve. The best compliment he gets from the patients is that Dr. Marcotte listens and has a true passion to help people find solutions. He looks forward to meeting anyone that wants to find answers for their healthcare needs.
