Dr. Donald W. Tgettis – Chiropractor/ Owner of Tgettis Family Chiropractic and Licensed Nutritionist.

Dr. Tgettis is North Shore native. After graduating high school he served honorably in the Army. Upon completing his service in the Military, he attended North Shore Community College where he studied many health related courses including chemistry, nutrition, and EMT training. Dr. Tgettis first discovered chiropractic during his time while he was studying at NSCC.

“My experience initially with chiropractic had a profound impact on my health and life. For the first time in my life, I had finally resolved some health issues that I had from my childhood. My initial chiropractic experience also positively affected my immediate quality of life. It was at this time in 1979 that I began working at a chiropractic office in Gloucester. What a wonderful experience and privilege it was to work with the community!”

Donald then went on to attend Life University in Marietta, GA. He graduated with a doctorate degree in chiropractic and nutrition. He worked with several chiropractors in the Danvers/ Peabody area before starting his own business.

“I have had amazing apprenticeships with some of the best in chiropractic. I have moved back here to pursue my dream of helping people to naturally live healthier and fuller lives. With the amazing help of chiropractic, this dream is realized daily.”

Dr. Donald Tgettis has since been in business for over 22 years. He has helped many families reach their health goals, and looks forward to serving as your families’ chiropractor!
