He and his wife have two adult children, Katie and Christopher.  Together, they’ve spent over 40 years developing their practice, Westwood Family Chiropractic, in Westwood, Massachusetts. That practice is considered the standard in the vitalistic, salutogenic model for chiropractic.

Kevorkian’s vision is to support individuals and families to achieve their highest potential. He trains and inspires DCs and chiropractic professionals with his teaching, motivating and speaking engagements. He is an international speaker and instructor in chiropractic family practice.
