Pain & Recovery

The “coaches” of our team are Dr. Rick Hodish, family chiropractor, and Stacy Sloan, Director of Physical Therapy.

Rick Hodish, D.C., has served the community for more than 27 years. His athletic background is extensive: black belt in Chinese martial arts, 30 years of running and triathlons, including marathons, with too many awards to list. Dr. Hodish “knows” health and practices what he preaches… detoxification, nutrition, and daily exercises are keys to fitness and longevity. He is still an avid fitness and exercise "nut", most mornings arising at 5:00AM to begin his day. Dr. Hodish has suffered through neck pain and lower back spinal and disc pains, yet with the care of his favorite Chiropractor, his wife, Dr. Karen, he has learned how to naturally beat the limitations of medicine. The natural and safe cutting-edge methods that have helped him and your neighbors are available to YOU.

Dr. Rick’s mission is to direct people to the realization that they are activated from within; that life and healing come from within; and ultimately that the maintenance of health is superior to the treatment of disease.

Stacy Sloan, P.T., H.F.I., has also served the community for nearly 20 years. Stacy knows pain as well. She was a competitive swimmer/water polo player, runner/duathlon participant, and is currently an avid cyclist for the past 17 years, averaging 50 mile rides 3-4 times/week. She has suffered through several accidents and many athletic injuries, and has self managed 2 herniated discs in her back the natural way – proper exercise, education, and a healthy lifestyle. Stacy understands “first hand” what her patients are experiencing which enables her to have much more insight when treating them.

We promise care that is Positive, Personal and Professional. We put the importance of YOU into the Care and Compassion at The Family Health & Wellness Center of Pembroke Pines.

Dr. Rick and Stacy truly understand pain and have been “there”. They promise to help you along your road to recovery.
