Meet The Doc
Dr. Rick Kirkpatrick
Dr. Rick is a principled chiropractor, father, and health advocate who is passionate about helping people experience greater vitality, clarity, and quality of life through chiropractic care. As the owner of Level Up Chiropractic, soon to become Go Chiropractic, Dr. Rick brings more than 11 years of clinical experience, advanced training, and a deeply personal commitment to serving individuals and families with excellence.
A 2014 graduate of Life University, Dr. Rick has built his career around a clear belief: the body is intelligently designed and has an incredible ability to heal, adapt, and function when interference is reduced. His approach is rooted in subluxation-based chiropractic care, with a special focus on tonal chiropractic and Torque Release Technique, a gentle and specific method designed to help the nervous system function at a higher level.
Dr. Rick was awarded Fellow of the Holder Research Institute in 2014 and was recognized as the #1 chiropractor in Lakewood in 2025. These accomplishments reflect not only his clinical skill, but also his commitment to continued growth, principled care, and serving his community with integrity.
Patients often describe Dr. Rick as thoughtful, clear, and deeply invested in their well-being. He works with people from all walks and ages of life, from those who are brand new to chiropractic (and to this world) to those who are already seeking a more principled, nervous-system-centered approach to health. His goal is not simply to help people feel better, but to help them function better, live with greater purpose, and take ownership of their health.
Outside the office, Dr. Rick is a devoted father, an athletic and growth-minded individual, and a man whose Christian faith shapes how he leads, serves, and cares for others. He believes health is a gift to be stewarded well and that each person deserves care that honors the whole person: body, mind, and spirit.
At Level Up Chiropractic, Dr. Rick is committed to creating an experience that is professional, personal, and transformational — helping patients and families move toward a stronger, healthier, more fully alive version of themselves.
