Join a Growing, Mission-Driven Chiropractic Team!
Are you a chiropractor who is passionate about helping families experience better health, eager to grow professionally, and excited to be part of a team that is making a difference?
At Truth Family Chiropractic, we're looking for an enthusiastic, compassionate, and growth-minded Exam Doctor / Associate Chiropractor to join our expanding team in West Des Moines, Iowa.
We're not your average chiropractic practice. We're a faith-centered, family-focused, multi-location organization committed to educating families about their God-given healing potential through principled chiropractic care.
We believe that chiropractic is about more than symptom relief. It's about helping individuals and families pursue better health and reach their full potential.
If you're looking for a practice where you can be mentored, develop your clinical and communication skills, build meaningful patient relationships, and grow into future leadership opportunities, we'd love to meet you.
About the Position
This is a unique associate doctor opportunity with a primary focus on new patient examinations, consultations, diagnostic evaluations, and reports of findings.
As our Exam Doctor, you'll often be the first doctor a new patient meets. You'll play a critical role in building trust, educating patients, and helping families understand their health and care options.
You'll also have opportunities to provide chiropractic adjustments, collaborate with experienced doctors, and participate in community outreach.

- Maintain accurate and timely patient documentation.
- Participate in community events, health screenings, educational workshops, and outreach opportunities.
- Continuously develop clinical, communication, and leadership skills through ongoing mentorship and training.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for more than clinical ability. We want a doctor who genuinely loves people, brings positive energy to the team, and is excited to grow.
Our ideal candidate:
- Has a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree from an accredited chiropractic college.
- Holds or is eligible to obtain an active Iowa chiropractic license before beginning clinical duties.
