Dr. Marc Surprenant

Clinic Owner

Dr. Marc was born and raised in Iowa. He received his bachelors from the University of Iowa and completed his doctorate at Palmer College in Davenport, IA in 1999. He has lived in Charlotte since 2004, with his wife Joelle and their 4 beautiful daughters.

When Dr. Marc was 21 years old, he was on 4 different medications for asthma, allergies, headaches and stomach ulcers. He was referred to a chiropractor, the doctor told him that his body was designed to heal itself. But something within the body was blocking that healing. As Dr. Marc started getting adjusted, he was able to get rid of the symptoms and the drugs, but more importantly, get to the root of the problem and Dr. Marc has been able to maintain that for the last 27 years without having to go back to the doctor for those problems!

He has received advanced training in spinal correction, toxicity, exercise and nutrition from some of the largest health clinics in the world. He has access to the latest scientifically based research and protocols in health and healing today and is one of only a few hundred doctors certified in the five essentials of health. Dr. Marc is traveling monthly to teach and learn new techniques and methods to be able to serve the community better.

Because he is very focused on education, he holds monthly workshops in his office on fitness, nutrition, detoxification and other health-related topics. He teaches Winning My Race programs to churches(providing on site weekly chiropractic care to Elevation Church) and has worked with many local businesses to help them decrease sick time and injuries. He also hosts a radio show for the last 22 years and has worked with local schools to help keep their athletes in top shape and was also part of the Max Living group that took care of the teams from the United States at the 2012 Olympics. In the last 18 years, he has also started coaching other chiropractors and now speaks across the country to chiropractors and students.

Dr. Brandan Lee

Doctor of Chiropractic

Dr. Brandan was born in Seattle and raised in Michigan. As a child, Dr. B struggled with ear infections and pediatric migraine headaches. After his parents exhausted everything that modern medicine had to offer with 2 years of doctor’s appointments, it was Chiropractic adjustments that helped his body heal and recover. He also watched his dad struggle with diabetes, witnessing the devastation that an unhealthy lifestyle could cause. Early in high school, he decided on a career in Chiropractic to prevent the kind of suffering he experienced and witnessed.

Dr. Brandan received his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University in Marietta, GA in 2006. He is passionate about educating his patients about the power of adjustments combined with healthy lifestyle measures. He has taught classes about nutrition, fitness, the ketogenic diet, goal setting, and detoxification.

She saw that Dad still enjoyed going to work, even after so many years in practice, and decided it must be a pretty good job. At Chiropractic college she met Dr. Brandan and they got married in 2005.
