Dr. Rick Duenas is a graduate of the prestigious Palmer College of Chiropractic West (PCCW) in San Jose, CA and has been in practice for over a decade. Prior to this, he completed his undergraduate studies in Biological Sciences at the University of California at Santa Barbara. During his time as a student he worked as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) for an Advanced Life Support ambulance unit and provided emergency care services for local cities. After obtaining his Doctor of Chiropractic degree, he trained as a state-appointed Qualified Medical Evaluator (QME) and served as an independent medical evaluator for countless Workers’ Compensation cases representing patients in the state of California and providing expert opinion in attorney-involved cases.
In late 2006, Dr. Duenas moved from San Jose to the Antelope Valley and soon after married his wonderful wife Dora, now a local school counselor in Palmdale, CA. Since moving here and teaming up with his colleague Dr. Wayne Hodges, Dr. Duenas has continued to provide his expertise in natural health care to his ever-growing patient base. His effectiveness in solving complex health issues without the use of drugs and surgery stems from stressing posture correction, functional spinal rehabilitation, metabolic treatments, neurological brain-based therapy, and by having a strong emphasis on nutrition and fitness.
For fun, Dr. Duenas is an avid reader, attends many post-graduate courses per year on a variety of health topics, enjoys working out, and loves to spend time with his wife, family, and friends.
