Our Story
Hurricane Katrina completely decimated the clinic on August 29, 2005. Despite the horrendous tragedy, Dr. Shoemaker never lost sight of his patients' need for care and he immediately began connecting with them on a St. Bernard Parish Forum online.
Just 3 weeks after the devastation, Dr. Shoemaker began clearing out his Chalmette clinic's storm debris. Later in September 2005, Dr. Shoemaker began seeing patients in a colleague's chiropractic clinic in Slidell, Louisiana until such time as he found his own clinic space in Corporate Square on Gause Boulevard in Slidell.
When the rebuilding began in earnest in St. Bernard Parish in early 2006, Dr. Shoemaker regularly drove into Chalmette to see his patients in a mobile clinic in the parking lot of his original building. The robust rebuilding spirit of The Parish caused him to quickly outgrow this mobile clinic and so he leased space a few blocks away from his original clinic while his clinic's rebuilding transpired.
On May 1, 2007 Dr. Shoemaker | Shoemaker Chiropractic very proudly reopened the Chalmette clinic at 221 W. Judge Perez Drive. Dr. Jarrell joined Doc with patient care shortly thereafter.
Then, in the Summer of 2009, in response to his patient's enthusiastic response to his reopening, Dr. Shoemaker and Shoemaker Chiropractic, debuted an expanded clinic area into the adjacent building to where he also offers:
- on-site x-ray capabilities
- a very extensive physical rehab equipment department
- spinal stabilizer
- multiple advanced spinal decompression treatment rooms
- 2 massage therapy suites
In addition, Dr. Jarrell has worked through the pandemic making sure that patients received the care that they needed. She has acquired the clinic will continue with the same quality patient care and service to the community as we continue to move forward.
