Dr. Saunders grew up in Warner Robins, GA and moved to Clemmons, NC at 9 years old after his mother’s job at Reynolds American relocated them to the area. After graduating from West Forsyth, he left for Columbus Ohio to attend Capital University to continue his soccer career. He graduated in 2018 with a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-medicine and he obtained his Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) Magna Cum Laude from Life University of Marietta, Georgia in March 2022. Dr. Saunders also received his Animal Chiropractic certification underneath the Animal Chiropractic Veterinary Association gaining the credentials to work on horses, dogs, cats and many others.

Dr. Saunders describes:
“Once starting undergraduate I always knew I wanted to be a Dentist as I recognized my soccer career couldn’t last forever. Over the course of my second season I acquired bilateral sports inguinal hernias which altered my vision of one day becoming a Dentist. With 300+ hours of dental shadowing experience up through my sophomore year I met Dr. Brittian on Winter break of 2016. After explaining my injury, recovery process, and future job ideas, he handed me a business card and asked that I come shadow him the next day. I had utilized Chiropractic through a groin injury in high school but beyond that my understanding of the profession was limited. The experience at Brittian Chiropractic Center in Winston Salem was enough to have me skip the DAT for dental school and apply to Life University during my junior year. I have since developed a passion for helping individuals and animals reach for wellness. Through the education and use of Chiropractic, movement rehabilitation, and nutrition I hope to connect with each patient to increase their optimal potential.”
