Meet Dr. Gregg Yurkovich
Where Expertise Meets Compassion
Meet the heart of Chapel Hill Family Chiropractic—Dr. Gregg Yurkovich, a chiropractor whose journey combines academic excellence, military service, and genuine passion for helping others achieve optimal health. A graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa (the world’s first chiropractic college), Dr. Yurkovich brings both prestigious training and real-world experience to every patient interaction.
A Foundation Built on Service
Before establishing his practice in Chapel Hill, Dr. Yurkovich served his country as a military chiropractor at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington, DC. This experience instilled the discipline, precision, and attention to detail that characterize his approach to patient care today. The military taught him that every detail matters when it comes to health and recovery—a principle he applies to every adjustment, every consultation, and every treatment plan.
When it came time to choose a permanent home for his family and practice, Dr. Yurkovich and his wife carefully selected the Chapel Hill area. They wanted a community that shared their values of family, health, and mutual support—and they found exactly that in our vibrant, health-conscious community.
Specialized Training for Comprehensive Care
Dr. Yurkovich’s commitment to excellence extends far beyond his foundational education. He holds certification in the Webster Technique, a specialized approach designed specifically for prenatal care that helps expectant mothers experience more comfortable pregnancies and smoother deliveries. Currently, he’s pursuing additional certification as a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician, reflecting his passion for helping athletes and active individuals achieve peak performance.
His approach to continuing education isn’t just about collecting credentials—it’s about ensuring that every patient receives the most advanced, evidence-based care available. This dedication to lifelong learning means you’re always receiving treatment informed by the latest developments in chiropractic science.
A Philosophy Rooted in Equality and Excellence
What patients appreciate most about Dr. Yurkovich is his fundamental belief that every person’s health concerns deserve equal attention and respect. Whether you’re a professional athlete dealing with a complex injury or someone experiencing their first episode of back pain, you’ll receive the same thorough evaluation, personalized treatment plan, and ongoing support. This equality of care extends to his interaction style—patients consistently describe him as professional yet relaxed, authoritative yet approachable.
Beyond the Office: A Life of Balance
When Dr. Yurkovich isn’t helping patients achieve their health goals, he’s living the active lifestyle he promotes. His personal passions include weight lifting, woodworking, fishing, and coaching sports with his two sons, Joseph and James—both aspiring professional baseball players (though Joseph would settle for being an investment banker!). His wife Jacqi completes their close-knit family unit.
This personal commitment to fitness and family life isn’t separate from his professional expertise—it’s integral to it. Dr. Yurkovich understands the physical demands of active living, the challenges of balancing family responsibilities with personal wellness, and the importance of maintaining health as a foundation for everything else we want to accomplish in life.
