Dr. Connie Chipp-Nathaniel, D.C.
I’m a proud Ohioan with roots firmly planted in Cincinnati, where I pursued and cultivated my educational journey. Beginning with a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, I delved into the vast and intricate sciences and comprehensive biomechanics of the human body. This foundational education provided a comprehensive understanding of human movement and physiology, setting the stage for my pursuit of excellence in healthcare.
Transitioning to Los Angeles, I immersed myself in the rigorous Doctor of Chiropractic program at Cleveland University – Los Angeles. Here, I delved into the highest levels of doctoral studies, exploring the intricacies of the human body with some of the greatest minds in the chiropractic world, innovative thinkers in rehabilitation, esteemed professors, and renowned thought leaders in both chiropractic and medical fields. Through in-depth coursework and hands-on experiences, I gained expertise in advanced biomechanics, rehabilitation techniques, advanced holistic treatments, and primary healthcare practices.
Completing my internship in Kansas City, I met my husband, Dr. J. Nathaniel, at Cleveland Chiropractic University, and together, we opened our first practice. Over the past thirteen years, as we’ve dedicated ourselves to delivering exceptional healthcare to our community, our family has grown. Our 10-year-old daughter, Chloe, brings boundless joy with her confidence, personality, and laughter. Now, we eagerly await the arrival of our baby boy, Noah, who will soon join us on our journey of love and discovery.
During this time, I’ve had the honor of delivering the highest quality healthcare to thousands, from infants to seniors, focusing on primary healthcare, personalized chiropractic care, weight loss management, physical rehabilitation, and empowering our patients’ quality of life.
As a member of the American Chiropractic Association, Kansas Chiropractic Association, and Missouri Chiropractic Association, I remain committed to staying at the forefront of advancements in healthcare. Beyond my professional endeavors, I cherish moments with my loving family and find solace in nurturing my faith. I remain dedicated to impacting our patients with a strong focus on prevention, providing the highest quality of care to elevate their health and enhance their quality of life.

With the autonomy to practice independently, I specialize in delivering comprehensive care across all age groups, focusing on personalized treatment plans tailored to address diverse health needs. My approach emphasizes thorough assessment, precise diagnosis, and effective treatment strategies to ensure each patient achieves optimal health outcomes.
My journey into healthcare began with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from MidAmerica Nazarene University in 2018, which laid a strong foundation in clinical practice and patient care. At Saint Luke’s Health System, I started as a Registered Nurse, delivering direct patient care across telemetry, med-surg, and progressive care units. Collaborating closely with healthcare teams, I developed and implemented tailored treatment plans for patients with diverse medical needs, deepening my clinical expertise and passion for patient-centered care.
Transitioning to a role as Substitute School Nurse in the Gardner/Edgerton school district, I provided essential healthcare services to students from pre-kindergarten to high school. My focus encompassed managing acute and chronic health conditions, promoting preventative care practices, and supporting overall student well-being within the community.
My experience expanded further as a Nurse Practitioner at CVS MinuteClinic, where I operated independently, managing primary care needs, conducting chronic health screenings, physicals, and treating acute illnesses. This role honed my ability to deliver patient-centered care in a fast-paced environment while ensuring efficient clinic operations and inventory management.
Prior to advancing into nursing roles, I served as a Senior Pharmacy Technician at Walgreens Pharmacy, where I gained expertise in pharmaceutical drugs, insurance billing processes, and patient education. Managing compounded medications and training new pharmacy technicians strengthened my commitment to comprehensive patient care.
Joining The Health & Wellness Clinic was a natural fit due to its commitment to delivering high-quality, holistic healthcare. Here, I specialize in primary healthcare services across all ages, focusing on pain management, acute and chronic disease management, and specialized care for men’s and women’s health.

My healthcare approach emphasizes preventive care, patient education, and collaborative treatment. I prioritize listening to patients, understanding their health goals, and working together to achieve optimal outcomes. Collaborating closely with our team of practitioners, including chiropractors, massage therapists, and aestheticians, allows me to provide comprehensive and integrated care.
