Dr. Claire Welsh is the president and founder of Care More Chiropractic. She was born and raised in New York and attended the Academy of Mt. St. Ursula and graduated from the College of White Plains, Pace University with a Bachelor of Science Degree.

Dr. Claire and Dr. Steve were married in the Good Counsel College chapel of Pace U, in White Plains, New York.

Dr. Claire’s background is well rounded, and includes work as a bacteriologist at a medical hospital. She completed her undergraduate research and wrote her thesis, on the effects of Vitamin C on bacterial growth. Then, utilizing a minor in education and numerous childhood development courses, she taught special education at the high school level while living in the mid-west, and then preschool classes in Plano, Texas.

After moving to the Atlanta area, she suffered a sports injury in an aerobics class. This injury led her to discover chiropractic. Besides a speedy recovery, the benefits of chiropractic included improved overall health for both herself and her family.

This encouraged her to pursue a doctorate in chiropractic.

As a chiropractor she would be able to help others by educating and empowering them to improve their health. While attending Life Chiropractic College, she was elected as clinic representative and served as liaison between the faculty and her class.

Family

While Dr. Claire considers their 3 children, Kristen, Stephen (twins) and Kevin, among her greatest accomplishments, friends and family applaud her ability to attend chiropractic school, graduate with honors, and run a successful practice while balancing family responsibilities.  Dr. Claire says, “Parenting 3 unique children, who have grown to be accomplished and successful in such diverse fields gives me such a sense of pride. It’s not that I am proud of my role as parent, I am immensely proud of their individuality and their achievements.”

Her pride and joy extends to Isabelle and Shelby, her grandchildren, who she describes as “simply amazing”!
