Dr Paul Groulx

Dr Groulx has been a health care professional for more than 20 years. In the spring of 2011, Dr Groulx had a profound experience with personal illness that deepened his perspective as a doctor. In the early morning of April 26th, 2011 Dr Groulx was rushed to an Ottawa hospital by ambulance with what was soon diagnosed as acute bacterial meningitis. Within hours he had lost most of his hearing, vision and motor control. His kidneys were on the brink of failure and he suffered some degree of paralysis. Not only was it nearly fatal but he was told that IF he survived he would likely have permanent neurological impairments that could very well end his career. "Today I am alive, well and stronger and healthier than ever!" His recovery was deemed miraculous my most of his physicians and surgeons. One of his physicians asked him, "What in the world did you do to recover so quickly and so fully?" First and foremost he attributes his survival and recovery to God's grace. Secondly he believes that ongoing chiropractic care in addition to radical changes in his diet, exercise and mental outlook had an enormous impact on his recovery. As far as chiropractors go, Dr Groulx has a unique skill set in that his health care career began as a paramedic and progressed to include brief careers in the Canadian Coast Guard Search and Rescue Unit and as a Registered Nurse in Ottawa. Eventually he graduated from the very esteemed Palmer College of Chiropractic. Dr Groulx has been practicing chiropractic in Ottawa for the last eight years. Despite having graduated from chiropractic eight years ago, he still continues to deepen his knowledge and skill via ongoing continuing education seminars. Dr Groulx has made it his mission to include everything he has learned in his own recovery as part of your care plan. "What I know, I will teach you - if it worked for me, it will work for you - looking forward to meeting you."
