In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Ben DePass, a chiropractor at Rhodes Chiropractic in Portland, Oregon, to unpack his unique journey from healthcare skeptic to passionate provider. Originally from Ontario, Canada, Dr. DePass shares how his background in Human Kinetics and a family rooted in medicine shaped his path—and how discovering chiropractic care opened doors to true patient-centered healing.
We talk about what sets his approach apart, how chiropractic care is evolving, and why it's so much more than "just cracking backs." Dr. DePass also explains how he works with patients recovering from car accidents, dealing with scoliosis or sciatica, and those navigating chronic pain—and why collaboration with other providers matters.
Whether you're chiropractic-curious, a seasoned patient, or someone exploring alternatives to surgery, this episode brings clarity, connection, and a whole lot of heart.
