About Dr. Clay
Dr. Clay grew up in rural New Mexico with a family who placed a high value on holistic health. Food, nutrition, and mindful movement have been interests of his from a very young age. He always knew he wanted to work in healthcare but could have never predicted the path he would take to opening his own holistic health clinic.
​
In his early twenties, Dr. Clay experienced, first hand, how ill-equipped our current medical system is to handle unexplained and chronic health conditions. Following a host of concerning and unexplained symptoms, ranging from gastrointestinal issues to widespread pain, Dr. Clay began a journey to seek answers. It seemed that when no obvious answers were available, many practitioners would simply refer out to another provider, a different area of expertise. It wasn’t until he was referred to a functional medicine provider that Dr. Clay’s health concerns would be thoroughly investigated. The healing possible following this meeting was what ultimately sparked Dr. Clay’s passion for helping others heal through functional medicine.
​
When you meet Dr. Clay, you will immediately sense his authentic joy and compassionate spirit. He strives to foster a sense of fellowship and trust with every patient, and thus goes by his first name. To ensure he is always providing the highest standard of care to his patients, Dr. Clay seeks out relevant and approved continuing education, participates in individual study of current peer-reviewed literature, and fosters relationships with experts in the fields of functional medicine, chiropractic care, and all things health and well-being.
