Dr. Heather Walker & Dr. Troy Walker

  • Founder

    Dr. Troy Walker's chiropractic experience began at birth, when he received his first “adjustment” from his father—a chiropractor! He grew up seeing lives change firsthand in his family’s office, coming to understand how our body can heal itself through the power of our nervous system.

    Dr. Walker pursued this life passion through his undergraduate education at The Ohio State University and received his doctorate of chiropractic in 2002 from Life University. He is board-certified in the Ohio, obtained an Advanced Proficiency Rating from Activator Methods International, and holds an advanced certification with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. He practices with his wife, Dr. Heather Walker, and is also a member of and contributor to numerous local and national organizations, and a multi-faceted volunteer in the community.

    With his children now growing up in a chiropractic office, he hopes to inspire his patients to live an active, healthy life for 100 years—or more!

  • Founder

    Dr. Heather Walker felt the power of chiropractic in high school, when she suffered from chronic sinus infections, asthma, and illness. After seeing a chiropractor for just two months, she was off all inhalers, no longer experienced sinus infections, and was on her path to health. She became passionate about nutrition, motivated by her own personal health struggles—including hormone imbalances, allergies, and infertility—to help others make nutritional life transformations.

    She carried that passion to The Ohio State University for her undergraduate education and received her doctorate of chiropractic from Life University in 2002. She is board-certified in the state of Ohio, obtained an Advanced Proficiency Rating from Activator Methods International, and holds an advanced certification with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. She and her husband, Dr. Troy Walker, have practiced together in Upper Arlington at Advanced Wellness Center since 2003. She is a committed volunteer in the community and a member of and contributor to several local and national organizations.

    Her healthy children, active and loyal patients, and strong record of referrals in the community are all a testament to her passion and commitment to helping others!

  • Dr. Kayleigh McCormick’s chiropractic journey began in high school, after years of athletics left her seeking a natural, holistic approach to injury recovery and prevention. Appointments with a local chiropractor got her back on the field, rejuvenated her quality of life, and led her to turn her passion for education and athletics into a career helping others.

    Dr. McCormick received her bachelor’s degree in athletic training from the University of Charleston and, in 2017, her doctorate of chiropractic from Sherman College of Chiropractic.

    She is actively involved in the community and has a passion for service, regularly volunteering her chiropractic services to local shelters. On the weekends, you can find her outdoors with her husband and their two dogs, hiking, coaching and enjoying nature. She is dedicated to helping others live their life to their maximum potential.

  • Advanced Wellness Center is more than a chiropractic office—it's a health center. They will definitely help you with aches and pains, and then some.

    Bren C.

  • I would highly recommend AWC to everyone, but especially anyone who is worried about or turned off by the typical chiropractor experience. This is different, and you can feel it in your bones—literally and figuratively.

    Morgan M.

  • No reason to go anywhere else. Their staff is the most kind and caring in any medical office on Columbus. Advanced Wellness Center is the very best place for people in Columbus to get healthy.
