Meet Dr. Jonathan Fonke
Dr. Fonke comes from a family of six Chiropractors, all of whom have devoted their lives to helping people achieve their health goals. But his entry into the field actually stems from his own life saving chiropractic event when he was just 4 years old. Dr. Fonke was born with pyloric stenosis, a condition which worsened dramatically during infancy. He received surgery as a newborn in order to aid with digestion issues, but his problems re-arose only a few years later.
His doctors attempted to solve his issues with continuous antibiotics, and before long, he had tried 5 different kinds. Eventually, these harsh medications killed off the good bacteria in his intestines and he developed C. difficile. Having exhausted every other option and with no solution in sight, they turned to his uncle, Jerry Fonke, a new chiropractor based in Fayetteville. Within weeks of his first adjustment, Dr. Fonke was off all medication and thriving.
Dr. Fonke chose this profession in order to provide the same life changing, and life saving, results that chiropractic provided him as a child. He is a walking testament to the efficacy of the profession and he brings this passion to his practice every day.
