Getting to Know Your Doctor
Dear Patient,

What do you know about your doctor? You've seen the certificates and degrees on the wall, but does this tell you what she is like? Is there any other information available? Wouldn't you like to know a bit more? The fact is that the more you know about your physician, the better you will feel about your treatments.

So let me introduce myself... I am Doctor Debra Lynn O'Reilly, born in Chicago, Illinois. I graduated from Rush Medical University and began my career as a medical technologist. During the next 10 years I saw a wide variety of medical cases while working for a major hospital and research and private labs.

I was taken to a lecture on nutrition that a chiropractor was giving. I was aware that chiropractors existed, but knew little about the practice. After the lecture I realized there were other approaches to human health. I became interested in learning more, so I applied at the National College of Chiropractic located in Lombard, Illinois. I still didn't know much about the profession, but I felt very strongly that it was my calling. My mind was drawn by the concept of a healthy life journey without drugs or surgery. I liked the idea of working with my hands, but energetically was drawn to this field by a Higher Power.

I struggled with the heavy obstacles of going back to school at my age - financial, relationships, stress, time and energy. Great energy was required to balance school, family, co-workers and friends. At times I would struggle or became too tired - then my Higher Power would urge me to keep focused and continue on to the goal. I graduated with honors in December 1993.

My family and I planned to relocate after graduation. We fell in love with the beauty of Colorado and decided to move to the Denver area. Littleton has since proven to be a safe, comfortable community to raise my family and establish my clinic.

My family now consists of Michael, my son, 2 cats - both all white females (Miss Belle and Snow Bell), and a horse (Tuscanyy). Tuscanyy and I love to explore the Colorado countryside. I also enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading, walking, and traveling.

Due to my zealous love of animals, I became certified in animal chiropractic. Tuscanyy, Miss Belle and Snow Bell all benefit from being my patients. I hope I can help bring your pets to vibrant health as well.

I've chosen to devote my life to alternative healing arts in order to assist people in a partnership for health. I endeavor to enhance my knowledge base regularly. Since graduation I have added a Diplomate in Acupuncture, certification in Neuro-Emotional Technique,Body Talk, Animal Chiropractic and also use Contact Reflex Analysis, Solutions Spiritual Clearing Technique, Rife Machine, Ion Cleanse Foot Bath, Psych-k, Cranial Sacral Technique, homeopathy and clinical nutrition to my repertoire. The purpose of my clinic is to help you and your pets achieve vibrant health.

I love the challenge of working on an individual's health. We journey together through the frustration of setbacks and the excitement of successes. I think it is important to enhance one's life through patient-doctor partnering. I get a great sense of accomplishment when I see someone's health improve over time. I truly believe in holistic healing.

I am grateful I became a chiropractor. The journey thus far has made me a better person and physician. I believe with all my heart in the principle of chiropractic. This is to assist the body's ability to be fully alive and vibrant with spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental health. The techniques used in my practice have the capacity to help you reach your life's fullest potential.

My practice is unique due to the many techniques I have to offer you. All the techniques are synergistic and enhance one another. My personal promise to you is that I will do everything within my abilities to help you. If I do not succeed in a reasonable time frame or I do not meet your expectations then I could refer you to other practitioners.

I believe with all my heart in how I practice alternative therapies. I always strive to improve my services. I believe I give an excellent service for a fair fee. I want to help people achieve their highest potential. I wish to be of service to you or anyone you might refer - family, friends, dogs, cats or horses, and bring them all to the greatest joy of vibrant health.

 

Sincerely,

Dr. Debbie O'Reilly D.C.
