Meet Our Chiropractors In Red Deer
We Would Love To Hear From You
Dr. Norman Hoffman
Chiropractor | Lead Clinician
Thirty-four years ago, Dr. Hoffman’s dad visited his medical doctor because of severe lower back pain that was preventing him from being able to do the manual labor associated with his job. The doctor told him that there was nothing he could do for him and that he would probably end up in a wheelchair within a few years.

Amber

As a Chiropractic Technician since 2013, my primary responsibility is attending to new patients. I am the one who assists Dr. Hoffman with the extensive neurologic exams and performing the initial diagnostic testing.
I studied psychology and English at Dalhousie University and have a Diploma in Practical Nursing. I like everything about my job! I enjoy working as part of a team, the brilliant doctors, and learning something new every day. I enjoy monitoring and tracking patients’ progress. Seeing them improve is amazing. I like getting to know patients and their stories; knowing everyone by their names and on a personal level is awesome. I love helping people. Working here has made me want to be the best “me” I can be. I eat healthier and exercise more. I have less back and neck pain, less anxiety, less headaches, and more energy and focus!
