Dr. Barak Meraz, DC
Board Certified Chiropractor | Founder and Lead Chiropractor, Carpe Diem Chiropractic
Dr. Barak Meraz discovered his passion for chiropractic care as a year-round high school athlete. At 14, a visit to his father’s chiropractic appointment set his path, and he went on to graduate Cum Laude from Life University in Marietta, Georgia.
He gained invaluable experience at a prominent chiropractic office, became an Olympic Wellness Adviser, and refined his focus on patient education and spine corrective care while serving patients in New York City.
