Meet the Team at Back To It Chiropractic, PLLC
Our kind and compassionate team members will make you feel right at home every time you come in for care. We’d like you to get to know them better!
Meet Dr. Mark Quandt
“As a 5-year-old kid, I would go with my dad when he would see his chiropractor; I saw how the doctor fixed his problem. My dad went in bent over and came out standing up perfectly straight.”
As a high school senior year, Dr. Quandt received a basketball scholarship but learned that he had an extra lumbar vertebra which was causing issues. He went to three orthopedists who all said that the extra lumbar vertebra would cause chronic trouble. “They told me I should just forget basketball.” At the suggestion of his father, Dr. Quandt decided to see his dad’s chiropractor. “The year was 1983, and my chiropractor was Dr. Nadig!”
Thanks to Dr. Nadig’s care, Dr. Quandt never paid a cent to go to college because chiropractic care allowed him to keep his scholarship. “Where would I be had I listened to those orthopedists?” After he earned a bachelor’s at Seattle Pacific University in 1987, he attended Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Bloomington, Minnesota, graduating with his Doctor of Chiropractic in 1991.
In 2010, Dr. Quandt bought the practice from Dr. Nadig. Before that, he owned a business in Worthington, Minnesota for 12 years and sold it. Dr. Quandt enjoys helping patients get out of pain and back to doing what they love. He also is a member of the Gonstead Clinical Study Society and has taken more than 40 Gonstead seminars throughout the country.
When he’s not at the clinic, Dr. Quandt enjoys spending time with his two young daughters. He also likes outdoor sports, playing golf and working out.
Meet Dr. John Hemingson
As a high-level baseball player, Dr. John had two personal tryouts as a catcher with the Minnesota Twins during high school. While in high school, he had several major injuries that made it much more difficult to play. While in college, the injuries continued and prevented him from pursuing his dream as a major league baseball player. It wasn’t until he was married with one child that he discovered the powerful effects of chiropractic which would’ve allowed him to continue playing.
It was with this health transformation that he decided to go to chiropractic school. Through learning several techniques over his schooling, he discovered the Gonstead system and hasn’t regretted it ever since. He has practiced the Gonstead System his entire career and has committed himself to lifelong learning, with nearly 200 hours of seminars under his belt.
He graduated from Northwestern Health Sciences University in the Twin Cities. Chiropractic was the beginning of his health journey and on top of that has grown in other natural health principles and has devoted his life to aging well and raising a healthy family.
When Dr. John isn’t in the office, he spends time with family and close friends, hiking on trails, having bonfires, playing the guitar and singing, as well as learning about health, personal growth and business.
