Meet Our Doctors
Dr. Bryan Wills
MY PATH TO CHIROPRACTIC
Dr. Bryan Wills knew from a very young age that he wanted to be a chiropractor.
“When I was just a little kid, my dad went to a chiropractor and brought me with him. Even at four years old, something spoke to me about what went on in the office. It was stuck in my mind from then on that I wanted to be a chiropractor.”
Even his family thought he might have chosen a profession too soon. “Everyone thought I’d change my mind. Even though I didn’t even really know what chiropractic involved, I stayed with my decision and attended Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, IA.”
SHARING CHIROPRACTIC CARE WITH THE WORLD
Dr. Bryan learned all about helping people through chiropractic while attending college. While there he went on his first humanitarian trip to Brazil. There he adjusted hundreds of people in need of better health. He also saw first-hand the miraculous results that the chiropractic adjustment gives.
Delivering hope to this many people really spoke to him and ignited his love for the profession. He continued to make humanitarian trips to the Dominican Republic and Haiti to provide chiropractic care.
Dr. Bryan has gone on to open two more highly successful practices in Rockford, Illinois, built with the same small-town values of Family, Integrity, and Authenticity, as the original located in Rochelle.
FAMILY LIFE AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Dr. Bryan and his wife Dr. Stacy met while attending chiropractic college. They have two young children, Brady and Alexa. When he’s not in the office, he loves spending time with his family and watching his children grow and develop.

Dr. Stacy Wills
CHIROPRACTIC CAME NATURALLY
Dr. Stacy Wills was a natural candidate for a chiropractic career. “I grew up in Davenport, IA, which is the home and beginning of chiropractic. I grew up with chiropractic care in my life and had an uncle who was a chiropractor. From the earliest time I remember, I knew it was what I was going to be and never considered anything else!”
AN INTENSE CHIROPRACTIC EDUCATION
Dr. Stacy attended her hometown chiropractic school, Palmer College of Chiropractic. On the first day of classes, she met her future husband Dr. Bryan.
Also while attending, Dr. Stacy participated in a humanitarian trip, visiting Brazil with a group of chiropractors to help bring chiropractic healing to those in need.

Dr. Elizabeth Shick
Dr. Elizabeth’s first experience with chiropractic was when she was a child. “I had chronic ear infections and allergies. My parents started chiropractic care with me then which helped the ear infections and
allergies reside. I am truly grateful for chiropractic and what it has done for me and my family. The benefits that I have had with both my pregnancy’s. labor and deliveries and the amazing results from getting my children adjusted has made me believe chiropractic care is essential to everyone and can help you thrive in life.
A WELL-ROUNDED EDUCATION

Dr. Andrew Ludeman
CHIROPRACTIC CARE—FROM INJURY TO PASSION
Dr. Andrew started going to the chiropractor when he was 13. He injured his knee in football practice. After that, he went to a chiropractor for every injury he had. Dr. Andrew really enjoyed being adjusted and attributed his early start to good health through chiropractic. His chiropractor adjusted him until he went off to college.
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE
Dr. Andrew attended Palmer College and did dual credit for his bachelor’s and doctorate degrees. He was an avid weightlifter and had many friends who were bodybuilders or powerlifters. He power-lifted for 2 years while he was there. After graduating Dr. Andrew went on to build a practice in Wisconsin that focused on treating high-level athletes.
