Dr. Shem’s interest for serving patients with neurological conditions was sparked during his undergraduate studies when he began to uncover the vast responsibility of the human nervous system and what happens when things go awry. Little did he know at the time that this would lead him down a never-ending rabbit hole. Committed to a lifetime of learning and in a continual search of how to serve his patients tomorrow better than he did yesterday; he has completed over 2,000 hours in post-graduate coursework utilizing neurological rehabilitation as well as nutrition and neurochemistry and currently holds Diplomate status through the American Chiropractic Neurology Board.

As a Texas native, Dr. Shem graduated from Parker University in Dallas, Texas as a Doctor of Chiropractic in April of 2020. During his time at Parker University Dr. Shem held the role as President of the Neurology Club which awarded him the opportunity to deliver regular lectures on applied clinical neuroscience and neurophysiology to the student body. This responsibility also allowed him to realize the importance of being able to educate, and meeting a person where they are, by simplifying complex topics down to a relatable concept. Upon graduation Dr. Shem moved to Minnesota to work within one of the largest functional neurology clinics in the country which afforded him the opportunity to work with some of the most complex neurological conditions including traumatic brain injury, post-stroke, dysautonomia, chronic pain, spinal cord injuries, assault, neuro-degeneration, auto-immunity, post-electrocution, and much more.
