Dr. Charles Cruickshank completed his undergraduate studies at Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey. He became interested in integrative medicine after suffering from severe mid and low back pain due to a baseball injury. He treated these injuries through traditional orthopedic medicine and found no improvement and decided that he would seek the services of a chiropractor. After successful treatment, he decided to pursue chiropractic as a career. In 1995, he graduated from The National College of Health Sciences in Lombard, IL. Dr. Cruickshank has been in private practice in Maryland for 27 years. He is Board Certified and licensed in the state of Maryland with Physical therapy privileges. Over the past 27 years, Dr. Cruickshank has coordinated his practice with a number of primary care, pain management, orthopedic and neurosurgical physicians to form an integrated, patient-based health care team to achieve the best outcomes for his patients.
