Dr. James J. Flood was voted Chiropractor of the Year in 1987. His philosophy is that health care is a partnership between doctor and patient. He feels that listening to the patient and learning about their lifestyle can give great insight as to why problems develop and how they can be eliminated. Each patient is treated as an individual and a program of care is designed specifically for them based on an extensive history and a thorough examination.
He was born and raised in Montgomery County, Maryland. He graduated from Gaithersburg High School. After earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Public Health from the University of Maryland, College Park, he followed in his father’s footsteps and received his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from New York Chiropractic College.
Growing up, Dr. James developed a passion for health and fitness. He is a former D1 athlete and Assistant Strength Coach for the Washington Nationals. He has been a certified personal trainer for over ten years. Dr. James grew up having a strong understanding of the human body and the knowledge of how to maximize one’s overall health and wellness.
His passion for chiropractic started as a kid, having grown up in a Chiropractic household. After arthroscopic hip surgery, he realized that nothing else relieved his pain the way chiropractic care did. Dr. James says, “there is nothing more powerful than a great chiropractic adjustment. I know what it is like to be in immense pain, and I know what it takes to get someone out of pain”.
Dr. James resides in Maryland with his wife, Kathryn, and golden retriever, Kyro. He enjoys being active and spending time with his family.
