Dr. David Doyal, DC

Chiropractic - Therapies

Dr. David Doyal is a native Texan who grew up in the Hill Country, just west of Austin. He attended Trinity University in San Antonio, TX where he received his Bachelor's degree while also serving as his varsity swim teams’ captain. During his tenure as a student athlete, Dr. Doyal experienced repetitive wear and tear injuries that led him to seek chiropractic care. After noticing rapid and positive results from the chiropractic care he received, he became inspired to pursue physical medicine to help athletes with similar stories reach their goals, as he had experienced. “There are so many advantages that chiropractic care can have on an athlete, and I hope to provide as much knowledge to my patients and community as possible so they can experience the life-changing role that chiropractic can provide.” After he completed his Bachelor's degree, Dr. Doyal attended Parker University in Dallas, TX where completed his chiropractic degree. When Dr. Doyal is not working on patients, he may be spending time with his family, playing with his dogs, or cheering on his football teams: the Oklahoma Sooners and the Dallas Cowboys.

Dr. Paige Leonard, DC

Chiropractic - Dry Needling - Therapies

Dr. Paige was born in Camp Lejeune, NC but was raised all over as a daughter of a Marine. She spent a majority of her years growing up on the beaches of Southern California and Hawai’i. Dr. Paige earned her Bachelor’s degree studying nutrition at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa. She always knew she wanted to practice chiropractic medicine and fell in love with healing the body holistically through movement and nutrition. She has explored all forms of movement from yoga to weight lifting to triathlons- “I have found that if you do only one form of movement, you never get the chance to experience the adaptability your body has and explore what your body can do! My goal is to treat patients to live their lives to the fullest extent possible”. Dr. Paige didn’t stray far from the ocean when she went on to pursue her chiropractic degree at Palmer College of Chiropractic- Florida. When she wasn’t studying, she was surfing or exploring all Florida had to offer, and continued her education with Dry Needling. After graduating from chiropractic school, Dr. Paige and her dog Nalu moved back to Wilmington, North Carolina and decided to start the practice of her dreams. When she isn’t in the office working with her patients, she is likely walking the beach with her daughter Kobie and her dog Nalu or exploring somewhere new with her family. When she is working, you will likely find that she has her hair in a salty bun and her daughter giggling by her side.
