Get to Know Dr. Dan
Dr. Dan VanderWeit is a licensed Chiropractor and lives in Gurnee. He graduated from the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana in 1996, and Palmer College of Chiropractic in 2000. He completed his undergraduate studies in Kinesiology, with an emphasis on exercise physiology.
Dr. Dan’s Approach
His view of wellness is to look for the underlying causes of disturbance (present symptoms or not) and then make necessary interventions/lifestyle adjustments to optimize conditions for normal bodily function. Dr. Dan has several techniques that he uses from light adjusting with an arthostim, to hands-on adjusting techniques. Whatever you are most comfortable with or whatever the most effective mode of treatment is to get you better is what we will do.
History in Practice
Dr. Dan wanted to become a doctor but did not want to do surgery or give out medication due to the fact that it was not a natural process. Through his own back and sinus problems, he found a natural approach to health through chiropractic care, and his career path took off from there.
Family Man
Dr. Dan is married to his lovely wife Whitney Dr. Dan and his wife have 2 boys, Charlie Ray Vander Weit, and Quinn Abraham Vander Weit. Both of his boys were born at home without the use of drugs, or any intervention. Dr. Dan and his wife Whitney love the outdoors, especially boating, golf (well only Dr. Dan), and spending time with family and friends. Most of the time is now spent with kid’s activities. In the wintertime, they tend to spend time in Lake Geneva with friends and get out to snow ski in Colorado, as much as possible.
