Their dedication to education, research-based methods, and genuine patient care is why so many local families trust them with their health.
Their office represents one of only a handful in the country to use this new state of the art Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) which is spinal motion technology. This tool improves the precision of the care by over 80 percent while producing 75 percent less radiation. This safer and more precise the analysis is one of the keys to achieving great results.
Another major advancement is spinal nerve analysis or spinal thermography. This tool allows the doctors to see your nerve function and takes the guess work out of chiropractic care.

JOBY PASSANANTE D.C.
Dr. Joby Passanante’s relationship with Chiropractic goes back to his childhood. As a boy he saw amazing miracles that restored the health of his grandfather. From that day he knew it was something special that would be a part of his life. As a teenager and avid athlete, Chiropractic appeared once again as an invaluable tool that helped mend sports injures as well as enhance his athletic performance. Dr. Joby received his Doctorate of Chiropractic in 2010 from Parker University in Dallas, Texas. During his time there he became immersed in spinal biomechanics, extremity adjusting, soft tissue techniques, and spinal structural correction. Dr. Joby was 1 of only 7 students elected to serve on the training and medical staff of the Colombian Olympic Committee in Bogota, Colombia. While living in Colombia Dr. Passanante assisted Colombia’s Olympic Athletes in preparation of, and throughout the South American Games. He was able to hone his skills in working with athletes of all sports and skills. In 2010 Dr. Joby took his knowledge and skills to New York City where he practiced for 7 years. He has lectured and educated to the corporate sector with Facebook and Google as examples. He continues his education by keeping himself informed on the most up to date studies on body function, nutrition protocols, and exercise principles to keep his patients moving. In 2017 Dr. Passanante returned back to the Philadelphia/South Jersey area to serve the communities that he grew up in.
